[OneSlow5pt0]

id take the benz.........thats not a CTS-V is it?

[SE-Rious1]

Tsx man them bitchs are fast

[JITB]

well i meant to post all top of the line models, so just think of it as a ctsv...lol

[The Ninja]

Get an m5

[OneSlow5pt0]

id take either CLK,CTS-V or the S60R

[imbosile]

I'd take the BMW or the G35

[redrumracer]

id take the nissan
tsx
or mazda

[Bruce Leroy]

Stock...I'd pick the charger. Its the fastest. If I got to add mods I'd probably pick the 335.

[Jecht]

I'll take the Audi A4, Mazdaspeed 6, or the Subaru Legacy GT.

[GGPIS3]

335 or is350 nothing else compares....maybe the g35 too but thats about it

[kppk1986]

+1 for the mazda 6 speed!!

[allmotoronly]

anything made in germany

[black]

Out of all those, the 335i is by far better IMO. Looks great, and has some power to play with.

[87 Turbo II]

Mazdaspeed 6 for me

[JITB]

its a toss up for me between the

hard to decide they all have something the other doesnt
srt8
Ms6
Mercedes
G35

[mocha latte cupcake]

legacy GT or IS350 are my top votes... just cause i <3 them both... nissan love though

[JDMJAYDC2]

BMW M5 tops them all im my book

[JITB]

BMW M5 tops them all im my book
m5 isnt on there it costs too much

[VooDooXII]

Of course...I'll vouch for the SAAB, but the Charger SRT8 will **** on them all. It can hang with a CLS55 AMG.

I'd take...
-SAAB 9-3 Turbo X
-Volvo S60R/V70R
-Cadillac CTS-V
-Audi S4
-Volkswagen Passat R36

[JessAlba452]

I would pick.... hmm

Audi A4
Lexus IS350
Benz C350
BMW 335i
Infiniti G35


Too bad you guys don't have the Maxima up there. I mean other than the fact that the new models look like boats...

The 3rd gen Maxima's (1990's +) were labeled as 4DSC (4 Door Sports Car) and even in 2003 every middle-class consumer "sedan" that was test driven before my purchase just felt slow. :)

Okay I'm done! Enough of the soap-box haha

[VooDooXII]

I really like Maximas...I think they're somewhat underrated...probably because they're front-wheel-drive.

[JessAlba452]

I really like Maximas...I think they're somewhat underrated...probably because they're front-wheel-drive.

Yep true. But Altimas are also FWD.

Sure you've got the HP to HP ratio and the Altima SER will come on top. But Max's were the true 4DSC. IMO of course.

At least you've got a soft spot for em.

Secretly or not so secretly I've been wanting a 300zx just to see what the hype is about RWD ;) Oh and maybe for some drifting.

[The Youngn]

i never realized the new G sedans were so ugly from what i see in the picture. just looks weird

[OneSlow5pt0]

Of course...I'll vouch for the SAAB, but the Charger SRT8 will **** on them all. It can hang with a CLS55 AMG.

I'd take...
-SAAB 9-3 Turbo X
-Volvo S60R/V70R
-Cadillac CTS-V
-Audi S4
-Volkswagen Passat R36

the 08 CTS-V is going be awesome though....

[JITB]

dam i did forget the maxima my bad!

ill add it

[Siverprobegt]

Mazdaspeed 6 ,bmw 335I,and IS350.I don't think the srt8 is the fastest.It only run about mid 13's last time i check and the bmw335i is running about the same stock too

[Whiteboy™]

you forgot one

I think they should've made the Maxima RWD to further separate it from the Altima. The Altima really changed throughout it's life-cycle...and now the only thing the Maxima offers is extra space over the Altima. I don't know...I always thought the Maxima would be something of a "350Z Sedan".


the 08 CTS-V is going be awesome though....

Oh hell yea...that's actually what I was referring to in my post, even though they haven't been released yet. I'm really impressed with the new CTS...it's such a big improvment.

[JITB]

why in the **** would u think that this car falls into the same category as the other listed

[VooDooXII]

i wold like that too, but i doubt they would do it, unless they do something to not make it like a cheaper g35, if they do.. tan it would kill the sales of the G. Kevykev posted a quite where they said it will come back like it used to be but it will still be fwd. I think its gonna be alot sportier like it used to be, something like a bigger altima SE-r, the only thing im confused about what engine is it gonna have? I could see a fwd version of the 3.7 vq, or maybe even Awd. most sedans in its class are not FWD anymore, and also come awd.

ijust figured he owuld be smart enough to think that its categorized..

Wow, I never thought about it cannibalizing the sales of the G35. Normally that pops into my head. Maximas are much bigger though aren't they?

Oh well, I see what you're saying. I think AWD with a passive rear wheel steering system would be an interesting idea...but I know it'd be pricey. That much power in a FWD car will just lead to miles of screaming understeer and shoulder-popping torque-steer.

i love the marauder too

[VooDooXII]

The Marauder didn't do too well unfortunately. Was it really anything special though...or was it just a Crown Vic with an SVT Cobra engine?

it had a 4.6dohc v8 in it made off the grand marquis, it didnt do well probrably because no one really knew about it. But now that they are starting to disappear they are gettin a bit popular..thats usually how it always works..lol It would have been nice to have around now with big v8rwd sedans being popular now. there is one in GA, that is supposed to be the fastest marauder in the US it ran a 10.3, i saw it on the hwy on a trailor about 2 years ago..

[97ITR86]

I would go SRT-8. I have driven alot of cars in my life and nice cars at that but the SRT8 is the funnest car I have ever driven. I had one for a weekend and it was just so retarded fast and actually handles pretty decent.

[1SICKLEX]

A lot of those cars are not sport sedans, though they look sporty.
IS,BMW 3, Legacy and G35 for me please.

[VooDooXII]

I thought they were very cool...especially since the B-Body Impala SS was out of production.

Nice video:goodjob:

yea thats what all the reviews of it said is what made it kind of a hit to some people. because it was just like the GREAT 96 impala SS

[madking411]

Wow, I didn't know that the Camry was classified as SPORTS sedan.....

Whenever I see one, or get in one, I don't have even get the slightest thought about it being ''sporty''....

[rsxtype-svi]

give me a TSX all day

[VooDooXII]

The TSX is a very nice car.

Mine's faster though... :D

[JITB]

u think a honda accord is either? or a passat? or a grand prix? or a impala?

[OneSlow5pt0]

The TSX is a very nice car.

Mine's faster though... :D

Saabaru > yours:D

[VooDooXII]

The SAABaru loses a lot of SAABness. The turbocharged engine is about the best it's got, and that's not even a SAAB engine.

[OneSlow5pt0]

u think a honda accord is either? or a passat? or a grand prix? or a impala?

i think the new accords are pretty sporty

i guess the STI and EVO is a sport sedan too......but my pick would be a Benz CL or BMW 540

[VooDooXII]

BMW 540 FTW!

[OneSlow5pt0]

BMW 540 FTW!

deff the last gen 540s = :boobies:

[Kevykev]

Nice picks, but An M5 would lead the way!

[Chuckster]

IS350 or 335i and if you ment to post up top of the line then I assume that the Audi posted should of been an s4 or rs4 then add it to my list.

[Ran]

Lexus IS350
BMW 3-Series
Volvo S60R
Mazdaspeed6

[DrivenMind]

Sedans aren't what they used to be. You can still got four doors, for more whores; and a lot of them are pretty damned fast around a track.

As for saabs... they're cool but I hear they have big torque steer issues.

You forgot to post the STi and Evo. Those are technically sedans too.

[madking411]

u think a honda accord is either? or a passat? or a grand prix? or a impala?

grand prix....i know its got a pretty big engine in it, but most of the people that ive seen who OWN them, dont drive them in a ''spirited'' manner......:ninja:

the new accords? yah, i'd think about that bein pretty sporty...the passat? never even crossed my mind...it reminds me of an overweight jetta.:D

And the impala = GANGSTAAAmobile!:lmfao:

[JITB]

i didnt put sti's and evos for a reason... lol
