For those that asked, here are some of the pictures after the hurricane, a couple of the pictures you can see all the mildew buildup in the Z after a couple days. It was a total loss unfortunately, sold for parts for $2500.

> That being said the CTS-V is the obvious pick off that list. It is in the dumb-fast for a 4 door arena, and out looks/handles/stops the others. The interior is subjective, but I really liked it (w/ the optional alcantra wheel and stuff) when I checked 'em out. I ended up going for a RRS SC because I wanted space and towing capacity otherwise I’d be in a V.

CTS-V :bigthumb:

thinking seriously about swapping out the wife’s SRX for a CTS sport wagon next year. the new CTS is really nice! & the V even better.

yeah the problem with the IS-F is that it’s an auto gearbox and I’ve heard the suspension sucks.

Auto for a DD not really a bad thing. I do hear the susp is very stiff, though that’s from the same pansy-ass magazine guys that say C6Zs ride way too hard for a DD.

X2… CTS-V \> IS-F & they are in the same price range.

i would take a C63 AMG over he IS-F

if i was going to get something of this caliber & it was going to have an auto tranny i’d go for the Jag XF-R but it is a bit pricier then the other two. even the XF supercharged is no slouch @ 470hp. but you don’t get the extra 40horses, better suspension, etc… that come in the R

Yeah but it would be nice if their sports car would come with a manual gearbox too. And I was told from a salesman from Rohrich Lexus that the suspension was too stiff. But I can’t be 100% that it is bad, being I haven’t ridden in one yet. Just what I’ve heard.

Anyway I’d definitely grab that CTS-V
