I am also kind of bored after having two 996's before this. I love it, but Its not as different of a car as I had hoped. 4 doors would be nice.

Between the RS4 and the CLS55, it's the CLS all the way. Personally, I'd go for the Maserati Quattroporte. My personal experience with Maserati has been pretty favorable and I just love the way that the Quattroporte looks and drives.

Not sure about the red pinstripe on that particular vehicle. Looks good on my gayman slayer though
CLS55 all the way, or if you can spit out the extra cash, CLS63! ! !

Of course, maybe I heard a modified exhaust on the CLS 55? Arling, is your exhaust modified?

If it has to be between the RS4 and the CLS, I'd get the RS4. I traded my S4 in for my 997S and I miss it (but not enough to ditch my Porsche
).

Sorry Shawn and no offense too those who have them..The CLS of any type is a serious womans car, the RS4 is very small and the Mas is a real POS to drive...stick with the 997 my Cousin (1st) raised 2 kids with 2 996 cabs so practicality is an excuse...
