help me decide !

612! that would be a helluva kiddie hauler

 

Id go the 612 Scag.

 

i voted for scag but i dont like any heavy 2 door lux cruiser.

car and driver compared these cars recently and scag won hands down as the best drivers car. ive driven cont gt and much prefer my sons audi s4 to it.

 

I like the 456. I think its way underrated and in my opinion it looks a lot better than the 612.

 

You should check the rear seating in these cars. Your kids are going to be smooshed, I think...

How about a CLS, or S, or A8w12, or Maserati 4 door?

 

I'm a Ferrari fan, but a Mercedes S65 AMG certainly does luxury and fast pretty well. And with the money you saved on the 612 you can get a Corvette.

 

612 or 456.

CL and Contis are everywhere and must be so hermetic to drive..

 

Give some thought to the Mercedes S600 ($140K). One of my friends just
bought one. More rear seat room (for the kids) and it's a four door, so no
scraped leather trying to climb in the back. And it hauls you know what!

Cover the tr's ears: V12 twin turbocharged engine putting out 510 bhp and
plenty of torque (620). Faster 0-60 than the Scaglietti. I'm an f-car guy,
but you gotta give the big M it's props!

 

Overwhelmingly the 612... 4 doors like the Bentley but with the Ferrari name and newer and therefore probably a better choice than the 456

 

What? 612 is 2 door 2+2 so is Bentley Continental GT. But I do agree if a person has the means I think the 612 is the way to go.

 

612

 

I think the 600 mercedes will drop in half in at most 3 years. It is also a good car but not exciting to drive. How about a maser quatroporte? I like them and for 120k, you're in.

 

Oops... 4 seats is what I meant. Or 5... whatever, back seats

 

no ? - the 612!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Think about the S65 as well. That may have been what you were talking about, though, Dincenzo, with the biturbo V12. It is quite a car. What about a Quattroporte (sp?) or an M5? That V10 is absolutely mind-boggling, and if you're a stick shift guy I believe they now have that option, at least over here in the states, but don't take that to the bank.

 

I would go with an already depreciated benz 65 for a monster daily or a Flying spur for a bit slower classier car. Or if power isn't a huge issue you can get steals on a couple year old Arnage T's!

 

I voted for the 612. If you're shopping this part of the spectrum, I think a BMW or Benz doesn't have the rarity of the Ferrari.

If it was my money, though, I'd find a gently used one and let someone else take the initial bath.

 

The Mercedes CLS 55 AMG is one hellava car. The CLS 600 is just as quick but more luxurious.

 

if I need to vote in your options I say the 612 but PLEASE check the Maserati Quatropotas

 

I might be wrong but I thought the "65" was only in the s class and the sl?

 

and the Maser drops half in 2 years

 

Ross:
you are a Ferrari guy!

456 is undervalued as a front engine 12. Not loved because of the spare shelve (I don't really call them seats) in the back. You get great workmanship for $80K with a few miles on it. Basically you are buying a $200,000 car for a fraction with may 15K Miles on it.

I diusagree that you will lose that much more. Remember to buy the manual not the automatic. M or no M makes not much of a difference in my book. Save the money up front and drive happy.

Are you back here in Miami? We have to catch up. ..oh and no, I do not have either car for sale or even on prospect.

 

S, SL & CL
