Euro-Clash: Mercedes E550 Sport vs. BMW 550i Sport vs. Jaguar XF Premium

 
<  

2010 Mercedes-Benz E550 Sport vs. 2009 BMW 550i Sport vs. 2010 Jaguar XF Premium @ INSIDELINE.COM: http://www.edmunds.com/insidel... an ideal executive-style luxury sedan is not an easy task for a carmaker. If the car turns out too soft and isolated, you lose enthusiasts who aren't quite ready to retire in a Lexus. Too complex or high-strung and you risk alienating your technology-challenged, soft-in-the-middle buyers who expect a measure of mindless comfort. Get the balance just right, and your five-passenger $60,000 midsize sedan will both impress with remarkable dynamics and indulge with palpable comfort.We've gathered three such vehicles for this comparison: the 2009 BMW 550i, 2010 Jaguar XF Premium and 2010 Mercedes-Benz E550 Sport.The 2009 BMW 550i is widely regarded as the benchmark among sporting luxury sedans with its imposing modern design, 360-horsepower 4.8-liter V8 and legendary sporting dynamics. For a car that's been around for five years, its reputation remains consistently impressive.All-new in '09, the Jaguar XF now is available in a midlevel model, and this Jaguar XF Premium includes not only a new 385-hp direct-injection 5.0-liter V8 but also more standard features. Riding a 1st-place finish from the last time we collected four similar cars in 2008, the Brit car should be taken seriously.The new-generation 2010 Mercedes-Benz E550 Sport stands a very good chance of improving on its previous 3rd-place finish. Sure, the 382-hp 5.5-liter V8 is a carryover item from the outgoing E-Class, yet Mercedes-Benz has spent a considerable sum to refine this ninth-generation E-Class into a car meant to define this segment of sedans.

I couldn't care that the Merc won. I would instantly buy a JAG. BMW is not good looking enough, and the E class(I hate to say it) has become a car labeled as a Taxi. The JAG on the other hand gives you more exclusivity. There aren't as many of them on the streets, and they look and feel gorgeous.

@TheGreatFilet Trust me, I go to UMiami and everyone I know drives a 335i, an A4, or a Mercedes C class. But having said that, most of their parents paid for them and insured them, so on paper those cars are still owned by 55-year-olds. Even though they're being driven by kids.

@awesomeman123 At the same time, the people who are driving the cars might also be a little younger. I'm 16 and the school I go to has a lot of other students who drive Benzes and BMWs (not very many Audi's though)

@cprfilmz Actually, BMW owners are, on average, the youngest of all the competitive luxury brands sold in the US. Obviously the average age is a bit older for any luxury brand because older people can usually afford more expensive cars. The average age for a BMW owner isn't going to be 26, because the average 26 year old can't afford a BMW. Or a Mercedes, Lexus, Audi, etc. for that matter. It's common sense.
