IF that 335 were an msport, it would win more votes.

MCMLXXXIX · 06-01-2010, 09:18 PM

I think the e92 looks absolutely stunning when viewed from the side or a slight rear 3/4 view. I cant tell you how many times I sit there just following every single line on the car, trying to understand what the designers did and why. it really gives you a deeper appreciation

and you can see that other brands really are trying more and more, its really cool

numba1guju · 06-01-2010, 09:27 PM

man the audi is pulling ahead by two cars

Prissy · 06-01-2010, 09:54 PM

i just voted for the e92..but it does made me felt guilty... the LCI e92 looks like crap.

The__J__Factor · 06-01-2010, 09:58 PM

They are all pretty bad pics of those cars.
I voted for the audi anyway - every time i see one they looks amazing.

Dont why they used a G37 instead of a 370Z. Think the 370z would have been a much better rep for nissan.

GregTheStig · 06-01-2010, 10:19 PM

I feel like I've seen sexier E92s than the one pictured in the poll.... even the LCIs

It is quite apparent that it is the best on the list.

The E-Class is ugly from the rear and afterall is a Mercedes.
The A5 is ugly from the sides and rear and is no where near the performance of the 335i.
The CTS is hideous and an American car.
The G37 is second best to the 335i.

+1

jlstyle · 06-01-2010, 10:49 PM

LCI E92 doesn't stand a chance next to E class and A5.
If it was a AW pre LCI E92, it could edge most of them, but with LCI? Hell no. I myself new front of E92 disgusting.

And if there was a vote for the interiors, hell, there's no chance for E92 what so ever.

LCI E92 MSport is sexy to me...dunno why it gets so much hate? Although I don't like the front bumper so much when it's not the MSport version.

the audis look real nice and the e class coupe for sure looks better then the 3 coupe msport or not...

1230vani · 06-02-2010, 03:09 AM

LCI E92 with an Msport package looks great in the front, without it, it is not as nearly as good.

BMW269 · 06-02-2010, 03:14 AM

A5 is really boring. The first time you see the new Audi "wow" and then then "pfu". With BMW it is the contrary. It grows on you. The Audi do not look bad, but just boring, with exception of the new A8, which IMO is the most ugly Audi ever built, much more ugly than A2.

hks786 · 06-02-2010, 03:32 AM

G37: Only really like the wheels, that's all.

CTS: Not a fan at all. Too boxy and shit proportions

E coupe: Perfect front and side especially with AMG kit. Rear is ok but looks dated. Car is too big though.

A5: Cant make mind up between A5 and 3 coupe. A5 has amazing interior, looks very classy and sporty with the LED lights and S-line bodykit.

3 Coupe: Standard body on facelift models looks great and love the new lights. M-sport is amazing. Looks sharper than A5 and looks faster/lighter. A5 looks more like a cruiser. Interior in A5 is way nicer though.

AZ865 · 06-02-2010, 04:05 AM

E92 all the way, but why not use the M sport body style?

Cuz it's stock vs stock. If they use msports, they would use S line, AMG style and such....

AZ865 · 06-02-2010, 07:07 AM

Well in my country, the m sport, DCT and sat nav are standard options.

AZ865 · 06-02-2010, 07:17 AM

The E class looks good but I think I'll vote another 20 times for the e92

DJKhan85 · 06-02-2010, 08:05 AM

I voted e92 for every category but those a5 wheels are awesome. This coming from a guy who owns style 230s......

smack · 06-02-2010, 10:31 AM

BMW all the way

PaulTheHero · 06-02-2010, 01:31 PM

The a5 is getting more and more UGLYIER!!!
How more i see them on the road how more i dislike them.
The 3 series has way smoother lines. And it looks much sportyier!

I voted the 3-coupe offcourse.
