You'd be surprised how little effect the body of a vehicle has on a man's pussy slaying abilities.

If I'm spending $40k, it's not going to be on that...

I'm sure it's fun to drive, but would not consider one.

Don't buy a Ford if you keep your cars more than 4-5 years.

Actually the Focus looks like fun otherwise. Little too much "speed racer" look to the styling for me.

VW GTI is a great car.

Volvo S60 and Buick Regal Turbo are more mature, grown up cars IMO. I'd get either one of them or the Acura TLX over the Mercedes CLS. It's not that I don't like most Mercedes products.....it's that the CLS just happens to be a mediocre car.

I just don't get it
for a few bucks more,you could get a mustang gt,and don't tell me you wouldn't because of fuel mileage either. Do people think this looks better?

Some people want a smaller vehicle. They may also want AWD. Maybe even a hatch for ease of access to cargo.

Lexus IS 250 or 350, RWD, won't break down, you look like a normal, mature adult and the resale value is good.

The RS is barely slower and more practical.

Also 4WD.

think if you drive all those cars, you're buying the RS. I like everything GMM said, but I would not own a BMW out of warranty, even a 3.


Are they that bad Vetteguy? Came close to buying my son a used 335 over Christmas break. Pulled back out of deal mostly due to his age.

i bet it handles a shite ton better and is generally more agile and quick due to that and its smaller size

I love 'em, but out of warranty repairs will hurt your feelings worser than a first girlfriend.

They're coming to the US. The previous RS was only sold in Europe. The RS500 had a sweet 5 cylinder.

You need a good Indy if you're gong to own one out of warranty. They're expensive, but it's so worth it to keep them in good nick.

I wouldn't buy a Ford with someone else's money. A used piece of chewing gum holds its value better than a Ford.

Our '14 Explorer is the best vehicle we've ever owned. Ford has upped their game.
