Coming from having owned a BMW 3 and 5 series, don't get entry level conti. Entry level conti is basically the same as a japanese car in terms of cheap interiors, bad insulation, crappy stability etc. You are just buying for the badge without any of the luxuries of an actual conti. Most of the conti you mentioned is so entry level they don't even build them in Germany.

For people who don't know about car, they don't really care if you drive bmw or toyota. For people who know about car, one look they can tell you are driving entry level cheapskate conti, no point buying to show off.

Options you should always get: Napa leather with ergo seats, auto soft closing doors, powered trunk, HUD, 360 surround parking camera, collision mitigation/prevention system.

Faster than your IS 300 right
Who cares whether it is 2nd hand or 1st hand
But of course imagination is free, just need to feed nutrients to your body

skoda, not sporty looking enough thou. :s22:


Not sporty looking? 220hp, 350nm torque for the Superb.



Vrs245 pushes 245hp, 370nm torque.



The three options you gave might look good but they are anemic to drive. The Skodas on the other hand won't be bullied on the roads.



If you want to have space to accommodate a child seat, you might want reconsider the CLA.

If cannot afford best is buy Japanese/Korean cars. For the same price you get a lot more features, much better than a bare bone entry level conti.
