Let's all agree on what we mean by "sport" first.
Is it just hp and torque? More hp/torque equals more sport?
I'd think not.
Because if that's the case, a locomotive is ultra sport.

How well does the phantom/maybach handle?
Would someone ever want to toss a phantom/maybach?
I don't know. Never driven one.

I've seen Ronin. I know those big audis are very tossable

Clearly not what I meant - which is why in my post I said "sedan" before my description of the power.

Agreed that Maybach & Phantom should be removed from the discussion. That being said, how would the people who originally voted for those now vote?

As for Maserati - it's too much of an unknown right now. Combine that with a naturally aspirated 8 cylinder and it just doesn't sound like it'll be that great. Perhaps next year we'll see it creep towards the top of the list.

none of the above. BMW M5 all the way. i don't really consider a car "sports sedan" unless it's available with a stick shift.

i dont think any car in this lineup is available with a manual tranny. Please remember that this poll is for the large luxo-sport sedans not the mid-size models.
