Jag is too far behind in tech now.

After seeing Hamanns take on the M6, I change my choice to an M6.

I think that's it in a nutshell really. Jag looks fantastic BUT most of the tech dates from last decade and when you play a few you tube clips of the AMG's sound and then factor in the latest AMG 5.5 engine is rated at 430 Kw's and 800 nm's, the adjustable suspension and so on and all of the latest Merc technology the beautiful Jag starts to look just a little outdated.

I was reading a review this morning that described the 5.5 litre twin turbo's power as almost omnipresent, I like the sound of that !!

Not a fan of the CLS styling but the AMG Mercs are too awesome to say no to.

What's the point of these threads, every two days there's a you have $XXX to spend, you can't sell, you can't give it back, you can't mod, blah blah blah.

Why not just come out and say what do you prefer X,Y or Z? And Why? If that is what you want to know.

Or for a 2-door, an Aston.
But of the three Marques listed, I would take a Jag every day, although not a fan of the XFR styling...
Looks more like a Skoda
