The first to start the trend was the Mercedes-Benz CLS. You have a point Thing2, but the RX-8 can hardly be called a ’sedan’. The first to start the trend was the Mercedes-Benz CLS.

The CLS is very cool, but I could easily see Porsche or Aston taking over the high-end part of their customers, mainly those who purchase the AMG models. Jon. Base Pricing, I would imagine would look like this (from highest to lowest):

Aston Martin
Porsche

I see it being as low as a Porsche 939. Front engine with a transaxle. Looks slick. No more crossovers please. Looks to me that its an ultra-low, extra wide, extreemly fast, 4 passenger car.

Aston Martin Rapide, Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, Porsche Panamera– they’re all the same idea, interpreted differently. But how differently will they be priced? Will they be competetors? Are they supposed to be competetors? I imagine the CLS would be cheapest, Panamera second most expensive, with the Rapide priced pretty high. What do you guys think?
