Seriously though .. all good cars .. I'm somewhat envious of your choice!

I know you love the mercs (for some strange reason), but I'd have the M6 at the top of the list.

Let us know what you go for.



sorry to jack the thread...

but is the 330i MSPORT same as the one we drive? or is it tuned?

cause i noticed it beats quite alot of cars that i thought would be a impossible.....SL55AMG?.....

I'd definately take the Bronze M6.

All the M6's I've seen on the road are black with tinted windows.. It does look very good, but it's got such a 'wannabe gangsta look'. And most of them are gangsters..

The Bronze M6 is extremely classy, and it's got a beautiful interior with no ugly carbon like the blue M6. True class.

My opinions.

P.S. You sure did dig out that old thread of mine just to say Hi. Well Hi to you too.

if you want a very nice interior, awesome styling and the ability to carry more than 2 people get the CLS55, otherwise get the M6 that's new.

If you want a 4 door then I'd get the CLS55 as long as it has the CPO warranty,then I'd take the M5.The M6 would be last.fast and 4 doors is the way to go.

Low ball them on the CLS price and use the extra cash for some mods from Kleeman or Renntech!Oh and put away some cash for new rear tires.

It's the standard 330i msport. It wouldn't beat a SL55AMG in a straight line, but it did on a track.

I think the evo time is extremely flattering for the 330i - the M5 is only marginally quicker.

I've driven on this circuit though and can see why ... it's relatively short and there is only one section when you can accelerate hard for long. Even the fastest cars peak out at 120mph on that section and they peak at 100mph elsewhere.

The key to getting round the west circuit fast is to come out of the corners fast.

Apparently they found that the 330i could do just that. I also think that by lucky coincidence it's gearing suited the track.
