I'm somewhat surprised at how many Lexus RX (named Toyota harrier here) and Camrys are roaming around here. Toyota really rules the market in this land.
 
Also, this country got the current S-class exactly 6 months earlier than we did. What the heck???

I hear you. That poster on that board is very defensive on GM and Caddy!
 
I'd stay away from the 'Slade if I were you. Besides, it's over your price range by a mile and the Hybrid, 2 miles!

No its not a new model, they said its been around since 2004. The look is kinda boring indeed, but what Camry isnt??? The interior? the same, but the notable difference is the fit-finish, which is a million years better than american built camry. I'm baffled, a 3rd world country builds camrys better than america.....
 
No, its not a 3rd world Country! its originally made in Japan!
 
Any1 seen the bmw x6, cayenne gts, and cls video, which I posted???!!!

Currently my list is becoming longer and longer, thanks to BIG and TM pulling out different (very tempting) suggestions.
A5 / 335i coupe / 6series / CLS
XJ / E350 / A6 / A8 / 750i / 335i sedan

 
Your list is very confusing
 
A5 and 6 series are large a 2 door coupe.
 
CLS is also a coupe but 4 door! looks attractive, don't like the interior.
 
E350 no,nope,never, unless the new redesign gets better.
 
335i is a small coupe.
 
A6 sedan is midsize,
 
A8 and 750li large sedans.
 
If you want a coupe, I suggest 6series and the A5,
 
Sedan, A8.

Yeah, bmlexus makes a good point. The list is too vast.
 
Sure, there are some nice vehicles out there... And your list incudes some of them, but it's time to weed through them.
  
Actually, when the dust settles, there is one vehicle that stands out, and is a genuine benchmark, year after year, and is also a tremendous sales success... That vehicle is the BMW 3-Series. Coupe or sedan, It offers the right mix of interior comfort, luxury, features, and passenger capacity... as well as incredible style, major fun-factor, and superior performance.
 
It's almost too obvious!

esf, are you really willing to spend $51k for an A4? Because that's how much the new A4 3.2 cost when loaded, yes even costlier than a loaded 335i. I like the A4, but the unreasonable pricing convinced me to cross it off my list. On the new entries: hellooww CLS.
 
I'm surprised that you've eliminated the A4, but not the A5. I didn't ask, but I would be surprised if Audi dealers are negotiating on that car. Loaded up, its well over $50K.
 
There's no reason to consider the 3 coupe and the 6. One is good, one isn't. If you're looking for a big GT cruiser, there are MUCH better choices than the 6 series. Jag XK, for one. The CLS is an E-class with a pretty dress on, so eliminate the E-class. Who wants to take one of the ugly sisters to the ball? You also need to decide whether you want performance with limited space (3) a compromise between the two (CLS, A6) or a big luxury car (XJ, A8, 7). Do that first, then worry about which one to get.

Since you bring up the question of rear space, the Jag XK's rear space is almost useless. By contrast, the 3-Series has useable rear space, and a terrific blend of everything else that makes it a car worth owning, at a price that doesn't kill a budget.
 
You are right about the E-Class. It's not the value it used to be known for. I'd stay away.
 
And, after a lot of posts, I think we all agree the XJ is the steal of the century.
 
All said, though, the 3-Series is a car that's hard to beat.

45K is enough reason to drop the A5 from the list, but think it is in it's 2nd MY now. Not sure what, if anything was fixed, but now offers adaptive suspension/dampening, which the 08 did not.

Your next car a Honda hybrid CR-Z
 
When you do get that Honda I will meet you at the track with my soon-to-be Prius with its nasty looking rear spoiler and an external and internal audio system that duplicates the revs of a Lambo or Ferrari.
 
Let's race to the finish line. This will be one of the greenest and greatest Al Gore endorsed races of the 21st century. I dont think there will be any need for us to wear helmets or for us to feel any guilt whatsoever about those melting icebergs.
 
After driving extensively with my diesel spewing 83 MB 300D I may be faced with eternal punishment since the Vatican has recently declared that environmental pollution is a new deadly sin. I am hoping that a Prius will be my ticket to Purgatory or at least there is some kind of "Grandfather Clause" related to this new officially declared sin.

There is a grain of truth in your post.
No make that a boulder of truth.
