Not at all! On the contrary - we like that and we need that!

Hmmm, C-Class or A4? A4 or C-Class? That's a difficult decision. The Benz is totally new, with great looks, inside and outside (the Avantgarde in white is just stunning). The A4 is a really durable and safe car. However, it looks a little bit outdated compared to the Merc. So, my vote goes to the C-Class.

I was going to vote for the Mercedes C-Class until I saw that pic with the black Audi A4 riding on 18-inch alloys...

Why would some put MB, Lexus and/or Audi ahead of BMW's 3er is beyond me.
So can you explain why you chose the 3 series? I picked the MB because it offers a better comfort/handling balance, and i prefer its interior design over the BMW.

Re: *Little Sedan BATTLE* (C-class, A4, 3 series...)!

I choose the 3er because of it's: handling, comfort, looks, engines (petrol and diesel) and the fact it's the GOD of this segment for years long and it takes more than a design for others to beat it. They still didn't...Therefore.

And i don't want anyone to ask me if i think 3er has a better comfort than C! I drove the 3er, but not the C, like all of us here (except wimmer). And what 3er offers as far as comfort is concerned, for me it's more than enough; i'm not 60yo that i need boat-like suspension and that every single hole on the road bothers me.

Concerning I6 engines i don't think i need to talk much. They're in their own league. Petrol or diesel, single Turbo or TT, doesn't matter, that's BMW at their best!

Handling? When you say BMW you don't need to talk about handling, it goes without saying.

Design is subjecitve, so i won't bother to talk about it.

There, that's why i choose the 3er over any other in this poll.

He already stated his reason. It was the first reply posted.

The Lincoln is a great car and looks pretty good. My only issue is the interior. It's good to keep a open mind unlike so many people will probably do in this thread. There are other good car outside of the German trio.



Clean cut design just like the audi a4.
