Cool 06 Cayenne TTS or 09 C63 AMG

So I'm in the market for a new car fellas

what do you think?

2006 Cayenne Turbo S 520 HP (would be modified of course)


OR

2009 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG 451hp

The benz really whips but if i can get a CTTS at the same price or close to it def CTTS.

Thanks

really hard to compare a sedan with SUV, they behave totally different.

bottom line is whether you need AWD or bigger trunk space.

at this price range and for pure driving pleasure, I'll buy an early 997 all day long...

Both very nice cars and, as stated, for very different purposes. My preference btwn these two would be the C63 though I think I'd get tired of the cheapy interior. For the money, I'd be sitting in a brand spankin' new '09 Cadillac CTS-V. That puppy will make both of your choices it's biaatches.

CTTS... C63 interior is too cheap IMO.
If not, then the 2009 CTS-V!

MSRP is $59k according to most sources. Optioned out probably around $65-67k.

ctts.
the c is too cramped.

but it all comes down to what you need/want from a car.
I came from a sports car to the gts, for personal reasons of wanting more room, pdcc ride, and a few others. I couldn't be happier.... until I get my mew CTTS.

I'm not very familiar with the C63 because it's way too small a car for me. How does it handle? I've never been a big fan of MB handling.
I've had an S55 (and a 750iL, an A8 and an S8), and am now on my second CTTS. I can tell you that the CTTS easily out handles all of these big sedans.

C63 with the carbon fiber package if your worried about interior comparsion...
the 6.3 motor is detuned by a lot. so theres lots of potential with it for a cheaper price.
