When they start making performance road cars. MBs are not canyon racers, yet go like hell in a straight line, yet are cushy enough for the business taking it to work. MB does not offer manuals on the AMGs either.

The step-brake allows for more storage in the centre console.

So wtf makes this interior better? the CF? Layout? What is your judgment based on

All I see other than the CF is the cheap looking plastic by the handrest and handbrake. Not to mention the buttons look cheap too.

See RS4 photo posted above. I'd take a RS4 over a E63.

Did I ever imply anything in regards to Honda's? Maybe you and I just have a different definition of a sport-luxury vehicle, my definition is more in tune with BMW M series and Audi R series cars. To each their own I guess...

Let's not compare A4's interior to E class's interior.

Heres a direct competition to the E63.
The S6


But i'd still take the 09 E63 over S6. So Crazai

Most sport cars have three spoke steering wheels.

Honda..VTAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Self observation: I find 3 spoke steering wheels to be more comfortable that 4 spoke ones.

Layout, materials, style.

You haven't driven a high-end Mercedes or Audi in a long time have you? Go drive both, then come back and comment on the quality of the plastics/vinyl used. MB has switched to a more durable dash finish, yet it looks and feels like ass.

The cup holders on the RS4 do look awful though.

From someone claiming to be "50 cent" that's already received an infraction in < 50 posts.

I'll take that as a compliment.
