My mom's lease is about to expire. What do you guys think is better looking?

The CLS is damn pretty but it doesn't come out till September I hear. The A7 is already out and my mom's looking for a new car already. If she waited for the CLS then we would have to pay 1500 for another 5000 miles. How bout a Jaguar XJ?

CLS550 for sure! The 550 engine produces close to 400HP so it's no slouch.

Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear is an AMG man but he loved the Jaguar too! I think they are both better looking cars than the A7.

The new XJ is gorgeous!!! I would take that for sure. It doesn't look quite as pretty as the CLS but the interior is incredible! They are absolutely awesome cars!

No offense intended but I wouldn't touch an Audi with a 10 foot pole.

a car.
I once took a crap and the turd was so huge that I didn't know whether to flush it or spank it and name it. Now I know I should have put wheels on it and called it an A7.

You are asking about 3 cars I am very interested in myself next time around. The CLS i would say If it was the AMG. The non AMG doesn't look quite right. It really needs the different front end and big wheels to look right. The A7 is stunning in person and interior is fantastic. Looks very Aston Martin from the rght angles. The XJ has an absoluetly stunning interior. Really , like a finely crafted yacht. It's gorgeous. The LWB is alittle to bigg for my tastes, but the SWB Supersport is the ****...

For a mom, I would say the A7. It's practical but sexy, and cheapest of the bunch

Ya I sat in the new XJ and I just love how the interior is crafted. The wood surrounds around the whole dash making you feel like your are in a spaceship. The wait for the CLS is too long but I would definately take that. I guess the new XJ it is. Plus it has sheduled maintenance.

Wow, the Jag is sweet. If you can't wait for the CLS, get the Jag. A7 is too blah...
