Sedans High End Luxury Cars
24699 messages, Last post on Nov 30, 2009 at 6:41 PM
You are in the Sedans Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
Let's try to define this forum as being limited to luxury performance vehicles where the mainstream version in a typical configuration has an MSRP of at least $60k.
A luxury vehicle with a base price of $59k qualifies because it would typically be bought with some additional equipment, bringing the MSRP over $60k.
Vehicles like the E, 5, A6, M, or GS, even if available in certain versions over $60k, don't qualify because they are cars from companies that have higher end cars in their lineups.

Replying to: blkhemi (Oct 04, 2006 5:30 pm) The V6 Camry does have a EPA of 22/31. Check Toyota's own website, EPA figures 22/31 for V6 SE. Huh...let's see 3.5L 268bhp V6 vs. 3.0L 240 bhp V6. Which one is going to hustle more?

Replying to: maxhonda99 (Oct 06, 2006 6:33 am) In short, the Honda stick!!! The Toyota may have more power, but it's immediately sapped by it's horrid power-to-weight ratio, something Honda does very well, and that's why the Acuras will probably never have a V8(except perhaps the new NSX V10). And power isn't the whole story. Don't you think it's quite odd that the smaller engined GL450 with it's 4.7L 335hp V8 outguns(by almost a full second) the hulkin' Escalade with it's 6.2L 403hp all-American iron V8???

Replying to: merc1 (Oct 05, 2006 8:43 pm) And the new CLK is just as good, especially the new 475hp CLK63. I;m jealous. At least until my S600 gets here..

Replying to: merc1 (Oct 05, 2006 8:43 pm) I think I know how much it means to you and just how much you genuinely appreciate it. I may be one of the last to congratulate you here, but let me assure you that I am truly glad for you. The CLK430 is a very cool Mercedes, as it represents a terrific combination of some of the best attributes Mercedes is known for . . . and plenty of extra F-U-N as well. That 430 engine willingly delivers silky smooth performance like a bullet, and at the same time is very generous with its noteable fuel economy. Beautiful car! Congratulations again, merc!
