Opel Insignia v MB C180 CGI v Audi A4 v BMW 318i

[Cerano]

care to confirm how u define upstart? audi is in business even before BMW so BMW is... ?

 

upstart = new kid on the block....

 

audi never broke into the market sucessfully till recently with its A4 and A5

 

its still carving a specialitly clientele out for itself (:

 

pretty successful at it

[Maroon5]

no la

branding MB is the best

 

if you wanna talk bout look at functionality and value for $$$ in the luxo segment A5 is the best.

 

all cars have its good and bad....a4 good power but FWD no substitute for RWD, a5 i think i will prefer e e class coupe...act the 320 is a very good n balanced car but pple slam it for 4 potter, badge whore bla bla and of cos how PML sells them machiem like jap cars all these kinda mar the image of the 3...

i prefer the A5 for its raw power and moddability

 

the E-coupe for its looks.

 

320 inside too plain.... not rly badge whore...more of 318

MB gives good deals imho

ok cclassisthebest??

 

S***ks, you beat me to it.

 

[Mikeyeo]

Just curious what car did you choose eventually. Is it new E-class coupe?

 

 

I bought a Jaguar XF 3.0L

S***ks, you beat me to it.

Wah swee la!!

 

Great choice indeed.

[Axela72]

that's why RX sales has been pretty dismal

 

 

That is partly because it is not from AD but from PI

[Axela72]

using your own word of "glorified", isn't it the same

 

not the same. This will be like comparing an SUV with a sedan sharing the same engine etc. No matter how u glorified a sedan, it will not look like an SUV. They are different in class

Nice

 

But probably out of my price range - need to slog a lot harder...sigh

RX is AD leh... harrier PI but still selling very well

Opel Insignia should be in the class of 5-series, why compare it with the smaller MB and OOOO and BMW

act my SE has been a surprise so far...following up with me on prices and promotions...he was open with me so I was too and told him my base offer....and we have decided to hold on for a while more as we all know how fat PA margin is n the lull mid yr period....anyw u hv gotten ur c, congrats...jus sharing my PA experience...

 

Guess you're luckier than me. In fact I was more inclined to the A4 at 1st. PA is the 1st showroom that i went. but after 2 test drives with 2 SEs, haiz... sianz.

 

I tested the C twice also. Somehow preferred the feel of the C through corners and felt more solidly built though the A4 looks better inside out. but the deal given to me by the MB SE was so much better.

 

anyway good luck for yr purchase, SEs should be providing better service since it's quieter now. u're looking at which model?
