I want one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stophovr6 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Mercedes are always so bloated and overweight. Do you know how much this one weighs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I like the Audi S6 better, I don't think it's quite as fast though Audi is making the best performance sedans in the world right now imho If I won the lottery, I'd buy an S8 the next day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stophovr6 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Zoony, you got that right. But I'm a sucker for a station wagon for some reason. Nothing like seeing a grocery getter kick some serious ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I've always liked the Audi/VW station wagons. I would have bought a Passat Wagon had it not been for the reliability issues. They're awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 The new C Class has a great look I've been pausing everytime I see it too. I heard mercedes depreciate quickly though maybe I'll grab a nice used one next year. I've been more of a fan of Audi's and BMW's recently but the new BMW's are ugly.

zoony Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 but the new BMW's are ugly. No doubt. They look like Kia's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stophovr6 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 3800 lbs. That's not too much heavier than the new M3 actually... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted November 19, 2007 Author Share Posted November 19, 2007 That's not too much heavier than the new M3 actually... That's why the great reviews are pouring in on this car. Read some of the links I provided above, some great info from different sources. The only thing I don't like about this car is the lack of manual transmission, or at least the option to have a 6 speed manual. This looks to be the first "true" sports car in the AMG line.

illone Posted November 20, 2007 Author Share Posted November 20, 2007 No doubt. They look like Kia's. I thought the same thing when I first saw them. :laugh: They grow on you, eventually. I used to really dig the S4 audis, but now the grills on most of those cars is a real turn off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
