Lately there have been new additions in the small luxury coupe segment. In this thread, I would like to established the number of members that prefer the various coupes presented.

Re: Small Coupe BATTLE (S5, 3, clk)!**

lol this SO UNFAIR.. ALL CLK´s..haha
that means DTM and 63 B.S meaning that the benz suddently becomes the drivers choice..oops..

so with that in mind..i cant resist to vote for the CLK..

1. the DTM and B.S are just in another league compared to the rest
2. Its a damn sleek car in normal mode, a monster in B.S mode.. and just out off the chart in DTM mode.. it has the ability to do everything..
3.Sure it does.. when has it not?
4. One of the major factors..but not THE MAJOR factor

Re: Small Coupe BATTLE (S5, 3, clk)!**

No AMG, M or RS is behind my choice, just the standard versions.

1. BMW
2. Audi
3. MB


Lets face it, CLK is starting to show age, a new generation is coming soon.
I have only seen the A5 in silver and without S-line and I wasnt impressed and I didnt sit comfortable in the backseat.
I have seen E92 in different colors and I love car. Topcomfort combined with sport and a very attractive design. My favorite bimmer.

just curious--

I missed the rule part. But still there are no M#, M3 CSL and RS5 for sale yet. Its kinda unfair to add CLK-DTM and CLK63 BS to the vote unless you really are dying to see a MB win a poll. Besides comparing a car with a car that cost 4-5 times more , come one now, show some mercy for God sake!

Re: Small Coupe BATTLE (S5, 3, clk)!**

S5
1. What were your deciding factors?
Interior and Exterior superiority, top notch handling without sacrificing comfort!!
2. What is it about the design that attracts you to
the car? It's sporty with a touch of class.
3. Does brand image have an affect on your decision?

Certainly, I believe it plays apart in everyones decision.
4. Are driving dynamics a major factor?
One of the biggest factors, I have huge expectations for the A/S/RS5, I expect it to out handle the competition much like the RS4 did!
