Default Another "pick em" car fantasy game

You have to pick one SEDAN of each class (performance lines like S4, AMG not included), and you cannot have more than one of the same make. Models are the ones on the market right now.

Entry-level:
C-class
3-series
A4
IS
ES
G35
TSX or TL
X-type
CTS

Mid-size:
E-class
5-series
A6
GS
M
RL
S-type
STS

Full-size / high lux:
S-class
7-series
A8
LS
Q45
XJ
DTS (I guess this counts)
Phaeton
Quattroporte

I think I'd pick:
3-series
A6
Quattroporte

Keep changing my mind, though. Anyone else care to play?

Entry Level:

Gotta go with IS350 (and since this is fantasy, make it a 6-speed manual! )
This was my first choice. But since I am sometimes rather stupid, I didn't pay attention to the rules!

My new choice would be the 3-series.


Mid Size:

While I love the 3G GS, I would still choose the M45 Sport, just for the performance aspects of it.


Full Size:

LS all the way.

You broke the rules! No two cars from the same company.

OK...I'll join in:

Entry level: ES, hands-down

Midsize: RL ........ but only because I cannot, by the rules, choose the AWD GS.

FullSize/ High: XJ by just a hair........( though a virtual tie with the AWD A8, but the A8 is unreliable...the Jag slightly less so)
