Just a bit of a Poll to see what people's opinions are on Luxury Performance Saloons
Which one would you have if you had the money (and why if you want to put reason)
For me it would be a toss up between the XFR and the RS6. I'm leaning to the RS6 though
I've driven all of them bar the XFR & the IS-F
The BMW didn't "feel" any different to a 535i
The Merc was nice but just not sure if i could live with it
RS6 feels like an £80k saloon
XFR is about £20k cheaper and from all the pics/reviews is outstanding. But i would need to test drive to make final decsion

I love that Jag plus its a british motor so you have to choose that one.
what about the lexus IS/f

5 series bm has really grown on me,
-
Added to the Poll :happy2:
Never really thought about that to be honest.
-
XFR with the heart
ISF with the head (esp with the LSD now fitted)
in reality I cant afford either :signLOL:
-
Just love that mad Merc. Always been a fan of AMG Mercs....my father has had one in the past and it was simply bonkers!!
Audi RS6 would be a close second. M5 was always my favourite but if i'm honest the most recent one is feeling a bit dated and a little clinical, which is part of my issue with BMW. I would still prefer to have the E39 M5 over the E60.
I have no doubt however that the next M5 will surpass the others in this list. :jumping:
-
Yep, wait for the new M5....should be communicated in the next few months. Brand new engine, and based on the new platform which has already been described by motoring journalists as one of the best cars in the world. :party: :party:
-
Definitely not the RS6 - big power but a totally uninvovling drive.
I think right now I'd plump for the E63 AMG, but then probably the M5 when it comes out.
-
Would have to be the estate version for them, where available. Way cooler 8)
-
Hmmmm Lexus......................

C63 AMG all day long, that car is as quick as a lambo and seriously fun to drive.
RS6 would be second, boring clinical drive, but remaps to 730hp apparently.
ISF is also boring.
-
Having driven both cars I would disagree that the RS6 is a Boring drive.
The C63 is shockingly fast (as are most AMG's) but I found it wasn't as good to drive as the RS6.
Obviously we all like different things in a car. I prefer the clinical sure footedness of the RS6.
-
Imagine my surprise at how this poll is going! :signLOL:
-
My head says rs6 but my heart says m5!
And I'm not a fan of the c63! Poor show!
I hate the amy division but to be fair I hate mercs! Like all of them. God knows why!
-
rs6 avant ideal family car :jumping:
-
Imagine my surprise at how this poll is going! :signLOL:
Haha, yeah, it was a kind of rhetorical question really!
PS I voted M5.
-
I had an interesting journey to work.
Just in front of me on the A329M was an M5. He nailed when the traffic opened up. Fook me it was like I had selected reverse. Very impressive.
Still not my vote though. :wink:
