Its all relative IMO. A E55 with a 469hp Supercharged V8, a M5 with a 500hp V10 and a RS6 with a 580hp twin-turbo V10 are exotic compared to their normal everyday model siblings, and to most other cars they share the road with. What other cars have such setups/stats? Not many. That said, these same cars are as exotic as Camrys and Accords compared to the machines from Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston-Martin.

Honestly tho, the cars are so different from one another that its such a difficult comparison. I guess it depends on where you are in life, i.e. young old, style etc.

Please, do not try to convince me that the 335 racing the E55 is stock, ive test driven the car !!
