Audi A6,Benz E-Class, BMW 5-series

Audi A8,Benz S-Class, BMW 7-series

A4 (3.0 Quattro preferably)
5-series
S-Class
M3
RS6
Z4

Really not a huge difference between these cars, so my choices are kind of arbitrary. I'd take any car on this list if it was offered to me for free, and like it.

Re: What would you rather have.

I'm surprised at the number of people choosing the A4 3.0 over the 330i? I know there is a lot of anti-BMW people around here, but most of those same people are coming right back and choosing the 5-Series which is another huge shock because it is UGLY!

BMW 330i w/Performance Package or 330xi for winter driving.
Audi A6 (they ruined the 5-Series)
Audi A8 (7-Series is just as ugly as the 5)
BMW M3 (more fun) but S4 (family & winter driving)
Audi RS6
Audi TT

P.S. MB will never make any of my lists... YUK!

Audi all the way!!!!!!!!
I actually have to agree with Buff for once about MB being "YUK". I don't know what is bigger junk, the 3-series, or MB in general, any class!

I agree with Buff-Daddy on the styling of the new 5 and 7 series. Otherwise they would've made my list.

Hey Buff...I noticed your avatar...so I had to make a few modifications to it

well yeah, if it were 330i, i'd definitely take that, but I was assuming that he meant the 325i, since on these boards, the 325i is the one that is always mentioned. but yeah, i'd take 330i over A4.

Re: What would you rather have.

Good question!

1. Audi A4 3.0 and BMW 330i are too close to call

2. BMW 5-series (the styling is finally growing on me)

3. BMW 7-series (the baddest car on the planet)

4. Audi S4

5. BMW M5 (no substitute for a manual transmission)

6. BMW Z4

BMW 3-series (Audi too unreliable, C Class to cheap looking)
Benz E-Class (best car in this price range period)
Benz S-Class (boss has one)
BMW M3 (boss has one too)
BMW M5 (just a classic. I'd even take the new one.)
Benz SLK-Class (dad has one)

I don't get what is so ugly about the new 5 and 7 series. Those cars are awesome and I love the new styles?
