BMW 325i Coupe (A) $188,800 with COE
Very few cars can match the 325i for sheer driving enjoyment, although those less athletically inclined will dislike the heavy steering. It can’t match up to the Audi in terms of comfort or refinement though, and while cheaper it’s also due for a facelift soon.
Mercedes-Benz CLK 200 Kompressor (A) $200,888 with COE
On the other end of the German coupe scale is the CLK 200 which offers great comfort and a modicum of style although it’s difficult to justify against the new kid on the block except perhaps in terms of brand cachet.
