I heard that the Bentley GT was one, seem like a lot of $$$ difference. Any other cars that you guys know of?

Depending on which models you look at, the CL65 is up there with a Bentley GT. CL's go from 107k to a tad over 200k. Bentley GT Coupe is 175k to 230k I think.

I don't think we have too much competition in this segment.

Bentley Continental GT, Ferrari California/F430, Maserati Granturismo S, Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8.

Depends on which CL...max price should be around $225k for a designo CL65

2010 CL65
Test-drive a Bent for self...have always found them to be POS from any engineering or aesthetics standpoint...VW engineering only goes so far

On SF Peninsula, new AMG CLs are not uncommon daily commuter cars among senior financiers and tech execs....some of the CL addicts also have SL63 030 or SL65 as their other commuter car....and others also own/owned 599...and others have migrated to Scud as their wkend car

See much cross-ownership among latest AMG CL/SL/S and latest F's, at least in SF region
