That's true but Ferrari's are one of a kind.

Wow,... looks like the CTS-V has started something. Yeah, I know,... this beauty's been on the burner long before the CTS-V arrived. And so has the new W212 AMG,... still, the E63 seems a little rushed. Nice ride, but still a little rushed! And Caddy's not standing still in this new wave of mid-size brilliance. They just announced this: http://www.autoblog.com/2010/01/11/d...r-best-of-sho/. Production to begin this upcoming summer. This is gonna be interesting!

I'd have to agree. It's the new poster child for "ugly".

Yeah, that rear is gonna take some getting used to. What's up with all the brands hiring from the bottom of the barrel when it comes to drawing up the rears on these cars. Started with the alcoholic who designed the rear of the 7 series and M6, then the epileptic assigned to do the rear of the new E63, now this mongoloid who Caddy prolly found bringing up the rear at last years special olympic 100 meter event.

Well, I guess it just going to take some getting used to. I remember having some equally mean spirited things to say about the 08 C63's styling. Now I adore it!

Nothing a little cutting can't get rid of!

Come on, that's really not very cool. You can be descriptive and funny but try not to do it by demeaning other humans, it's not their fault (and I don't mean the designers.)

Think before writing, that's all.

Cheers.

This new M5 looks quite bland IMO. Will have to wait to see it in person but from what I've seen on the 7 series, BMW's are starting to blend into the masses of uninspired cars. I think the best looking car in their current lineup is the Z4. Hopefully they will make their M cars more aggressive looking.

That Goof Ball got fired from BMW for infighting with someone above him!

No high-end automobile's tail lights are worse than the new e-class's.
