you can get a CLS550 4matic (thats actually a $2500 option) pretty much fully loaded for $80K and a similar 650xi would cost $95K. I am assuming the new gran coupe will cost the same or even more than the 650xi.
performance wise the CLS550 outperforms the 650 too (CLS does 0-60 in 4.2 seconds!). I am curious what owners think and if you have driven both, I am considering one of these for my next car if the M3/4 gets too close in price to them. |
You should poise this question to Audi, on how they can charge 80k + for an A7 with a 6 cylinder (albeit turbo) engine. The A7 is the more appropriate vehicle for comparison.
The 6 series is not exactly the same class. I'm not being a brand snob here just stating the true marketing demographic. |
I have to agree. I think the 650i(xdrive) is more comparable to the CL550 and with that being the case the 650ix handles better and cost less than the CL....
