Le Chef is infamous around these parts
RS4 without question: great engine, handling and it's a stick shift, which may explain the next bit... All the guys driving CLS55's round here look like ageing extras from American Gigolo. If that's your bag, go for the CLS Baby!

Get the CLS55. The car is gorgeous when set up right. Just take alook at Redlineroberts CLS...looks amazing:

I agree, keep the 997! best option is what you have already!

Of course, maybe I heard a modified exhaust on the CLS 55? Arling, is your exhaust modified?
I agree the TT exhaust is muted a bit, but I like the way all other 911's sound stock, and the cayman s stock sounds good too!

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.
IMO...no sedan will be nearly as much fun as 997...CLS is amazing car...but not a replacement for sports car..

I prefer RS4 than any of the above.. you have fun , and safety for your wifey and kid.. just my .02 cents.. what sucks is no auto available.. CLS is totally different category, so cant compare..
