The 65.

The CLS has the best note, but lacks the high end horsepower. The Bentley is the attention ***** but is not that fun to drive. The SL is gorgeous and 9.9 out of 10 times is the God of the road, and therefore my choice is the SL.

I love my SL as well. But I must say, when we tune Bentleys, they turn into absolute animals.

Having said that I think that I still prefer my SL55. The supercharged engine has been so tuneable and reliable, and I personally like the V8 sounds. The 65 is becomng quite a performance car bargain....you gotta love choices!

I never really thought about tuning the CGT, but I can imagine it being a beast. If I keep this 65 much longer than 12 months I might RennTech it and make it a true super toy.

I admit that I prefer white cars, but those three look great.

I am trying to pick one of these pics as a background for a business card for my new insurance company. Which one would you pic?

Black looks incredible! For the card I'd choose a setup like this.

I don't particulary like the first three pictures, cars are nice though.

If I was going to use one, I would use the solo shot of the 65. The car catches my attention.

That would be a great photo for a business card, but I would suggest that you cut most of the foreground road away. Great looking cars.

Noted. I am in the process of getting several professional aerial shots of my ocean front lot now for my office lobby and some other things.

The 65 is my favorite out of the individual shots. I was thinking about doing cards with different shots.
