lambos use real exhaust systems, and i know your going to bring up the huge center exhaust on the lp640 but its actually connected to the dual exhaust on the inside, not just fit into the bumper like the isf and ferrari california

If you think the 335 is (as you put it) "just simply the best" Why waste your money on an S5??? We both know that people don't spend more money on something that is inferior. Either you really don't believe that it is "just simply the best" or you have no intention on purchasing an S5 in the first place.

Sadly, the faux exhaust tips are becoming the norm for car manufacturers. The R8 (V8 and V10) is the same way, as is the upcoming RS5. The good thing is when we change out our factory exhausts, nobody will ever know!

watch this video, the LP640 has fake exhausts so your post is false.

I actually think I like the C63 interior better than the S5. Not real crazy about the pop-up nav screen though.

IMO, MB focuses more on luxury compared to Audi and Bmw, im not trying to diss audi but MB is a lot more luxurious than both. Bmw basically focuses on performance and MB is more luxury and practical yet they can be very good performance wise. Im not too sure about Audi cuz I have only driven MB and Bmw, but Im guessing Audi is like in between? Any thoughts? Im not too sure but im just guessing,

You have already said in another thread that you are buying the BMW. So, why do you stick around and pretend you are doing anything else? Go to the BMW and troll them
