In terms of look and engineering, which do you think is better and why?
The new m5 looks far better.
Better mpg.
Better performance.
They are both monsters to drive with supercar performance.
I agree the f10 looks way better but the naturally aspirated v10 is much more technical than a turbo and the exhaust note of a v10 blows through the roof. plus the e60 comes in manual. Im a car junky so I care about these stuff but I guess most people couldnt care less. LolQuote:

All bmws are going that way now unfortunately.
Cars like the e46 m3 and the e60 m5 are more of a drivers car with that metallic feel without the over computerized engineering.
I love the BMW X6 in black and black trims that would be by pimp mobile.
I also am starting to love the Audi’s A5 are stylish but the A7 are out of this world.
Love the Mercedes CLK or SLK? That would be the ultimate car because the Aston Martin Vanquish would be impractical.
Only Audi I like is the rs5.
BMW is the better drive.
The M cars are what driving is all about.
I like the f10. but bmw over all got heaps of problem, oil line use to gag up after a while, You need to do proper services on those, if someone just change oil filter and think its done they're wrong, But as long as you looking after it, but when the first problem comes, the rest are lined up basically.
I had some project, Here's one of em.
Currently working on a Corvette 88, haven't got that far though, stripped the car down, got rid of everything basically, Have a 454, and a dana 9" i gonna get in it when i'm done with the garage which is in project as well. And still gonna be street legal :) no rush though.
V8 twinturbo 560 hoursepower, i reckon thats kind of low poser for à twinturbo V8,
Even though it's à small Engine, only 4.4 liters. But j think its quite a good machine for a daily ride. Something I would buy my wife in the future.
What do think about the BMW M4?

Gt40 hauls ass.. Are you more of a muscle car guy? As a kit car, what about a Lotus Elise..Quote:

Not really a muscle car fan, but sure i like them old 60-70s americans muscle but would perfer something else. I know a gt40 chassi laying around for a few grand, would love to buy it as it cheap and perfect condition and hard to find. but just dont have teh time for it at the moment. Putting all my money into a house now.
But the gt40 im thinking matteblack, something like this, Some day http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/...blackgt006.jpg
Well it depends, could drive anything as long as i have it my way. I tuned a dodge magnum a few years ago, ended up in magazines and stuff!
NSX is really nice! If you looking for bodes, chassis, look in england, they are really big at kit cars and basically have every chassi for it, as you want it in Fiberglas, as an old corvette sayin' Wipe your ass in Fiberglass :)
I reckon you should take a look at this movie, an awesome NSX movie :)

Between rs7 and cls 63amg, id take the CLS 63...
Hmm this could be interesting, Supercars, what's the fastest supercar out there? I give yall a tip.
It's where the sexiest gurls are from ;)
I never realised that this thread was for practical cars only, I thought it was for general car talk.
If you want a practical car that doesn't cost a ludicrous amount of money, you want none other than the Vauxhall VXR8 GTS.
It's a 6.2 V8 with a supercharger & packs 576bhp & it costs way less than a Mercedes E63 AMG, BMW M5 or Audi RS6 with which it competes.
Vauxhall VXR | High Performance and Speed | Vauxhall VXR Range
Quality isnt the same as benz on bmw! reckon that car is the same as Holden (aussie car) Or Pontiac as what em called in America who's not making them anymore. Same quality as a mustang, challenger, camaro. which you could get for 20 large ones.Quote:

OK, I'm beginning to feel like Audley Harrison without the million pound paydays for throwing one jab in 3 rounds before getting sparked.:p
It seems as if German, practical & not astronomically expensive (depends who you ask) are the only ones invited, so what about the Porsche Panamera GTS?
It's not as powerful as the M5, the various 63 AMGs or the RS6, but it's fast enough & costs roughly the same.
There's also the Panamera Turbo which is brutally fast, but the price might be an issue.
:-\Handling wise on the tracks, its hard to match porsches ( gt models) and s2000s...Quote:

I love the Porsche Panamera.
If I could afford it & I could only have 1 car, it would be a Porsche Panamera Turbo.
You can carry the family & their luggage; keep up with the fastest cars, plus it's perfect for city, motorway or track driving.
It's not the best looking car, but to be honest, I don't like my cars to be too pretty as they can come across as too effeminate if they're too pretty.
I prefer the sound of E60 M5 but that's about it. My bro has an M Sport 5 series 520d, not that quick but it's so much more refined compared to the E60.
My best mate and busines partner has an M3 E90 V8 with DCT. I know a few people in here said they prefer a manual and so did I - until I drove it. The double clutch transmission is truly outstanding. Instantaeous, perfect gear change every single time. Until you've used it you can' really appreciate it. The only thing I was a little disappointed with is the exhaust note, way too quiet for my liking. I test drove a Camaro ZL1 when in Florida this year and that thing shook the ground, nothing sounds better than a huge American V8
I've got a 2012 Merc C Class Coupe AMG Sport, it's just a diesel and nothing to write home about - my missus uses it 90% of the time. My deal on this is up next June just in time for the arrival of the M4. That's exactly what I'm aiming for, I'm going to do everything within my power to get my hands on one! ;D
Durring our swedish summer, just thought i could poost it here, for yall who are interested and want to see some races, all kind of cars!

My little cousin just got an 08 Bmw Z4M Coupe and I really wouldnt mind having one myself as a weekend car.. small, compact, manual, the car was made for one purpose and it does the job.. im currently driving thar audi S5 and it feels so heavy and clunky compared to the mcoupe..
I regret getting s5.. as foolish as it sounds, I got the s5 mainly for its look cuz shit was looking real hot when it first hit the scene and it made me overlook its performance.. definitely should have gone with the M3...
I am beginning to like Audi’s over BMW and Mercedes, the Audi A5 is beautiful looking motor, the A7 is a top luxury car, Q7 is a fantastic family car with 7 seats. If I was a billionaire I would get me some of those.
Audi is on top when it comes to interior but performance wise they can't compete with BMW.. My buddy has a 10' RS5 and he can't even keep up with a bone stock M3..Quote:

BMW are for posers, Merc for flash gits and Audi for the sophisticated. :cool:
I dont see why bimmers are for posers. Guys i know who have bimmers got it because of their performance..
It's the other way around if anything.. Audi's are all flash on the outside but dont have much going on under the hood..
For posing, Audi's are better...
DOnt get me wrong, I like Audi too.. It's like a fine bitch with a lack of personality.
As for Mercedez, it's just a classy ride for those who made it.. There is a rule though. C Classes dont count.. Now that's a poser's mercedez, C class..
Black S500 is just gangster..
All nice cars are gay. Fact.
