skip the c230 sport coupe. Drove one this weekend it was really not the worth the price of admission. It doesn't even look good either.

If it had to be from that list, 325i all the way.

325 sound like a winner out of that list.

All sound like decent "chicks" cars.

You forgot to add the Jetta (and the cabriolet)

I agree

That and the C320 sports coupe were on my list when I got the CLS but the quality to money ratio is pretty poor on those cars. They are sorta like the hated stepchild of MB.

a chipped jetta 1.8t was a great suggestion

the car is solid, fast, and decently nice and the price would be far better then anything on that list

slk230 isn't a good everyday car, so i would scratch that and the c230

id say a fully loaded jetta or a 325i would be top on my list, i would also add a used A4

True, but it keeps you from ever having to drive when going out with friends

Because he just said:

Plus lots of people burn up their turbos with chipped VWs or Audis.

I'm sure her parents would love paying $$$$ to replace turbos on the $25k car they just bought for their daughter to drive around in.

I say a Jetta, but save the chip for someone looking to race. Not a girl who wants to show off her "cute" car.
