Voted for the new E-class. My friend just test drove it and he took me with him. Man, that car is gorgeous :thumbup: . The salesman's also very cool, he took us to see the new SL55 AMG

The SL55 AMG is such a gorgeous car. I'd plunk down that kind of change for one if it didn't mean delaying my retirement by 20-years. Plus it needs a manual transmission for crying out loud...I don't care how quick an automatic shifts, it's not the same.

The S55 AMG sedan is another neat, stealthy sedan. But $101,000 is a lot of dough for that kind of car, Mercedes-Benz and AMG or not.

Funny, there's a least one vote for each import brand represented, but no one has even said or even voted anything Cadillac or Lincoln. I guess I'm not surprise.

Edit: :doh: Someone picked a Jaguar XJ (the least Ford of all the Jaguars).

I'm sure everybody (including non Americans) will hate gadgets that don't work properly.

You not only have the BMW 5 and 7 in the same category (I picked the 5, but obviously the 7 is a superior car), you have the Acura RL and the Bentley Arnage in the same category.

I'll agree, as well. It might as well be any car over 40k, since except for exotics like the Itallian stallions, most every car over 40k is a luxury car.
