I had my eyes set on an E55/63 AMG for my next car but I'll wait for now and definitely get a CLS55 or 63. CLS gets my vote but since you said it doesn't have to be a performance sedan then LS460 hands down

As one of the most notorious flip-floppers

on here,understand OP and I'll chime in...

From your list, LS460 AWD

Curious, why no mention of an IS-F? Maybe I missed it, but if you have an M3 listed...

SN: NO CTS-V. interior is horrible.

Since I was driving a highly modded G35 as a DD I would of loved to jump into an M3 or IS-F but I said to myself that I didn't want a balance of comfort and performance,I wanted the best in in either or. So i decided to go with the most comfortable car that I could think of for DD with decent power and tech gadgets (ls460). THEN I started itching the performance aspect and bought a 94 Supra project car but ended up selling it after deciding that I didn't have the time nor the patience to do it

. I am currently looking for a used c6 Z06 to be complete

But yeah, if you have the means to have two cars, one being a ultra-luxury DD and the other a pure HP monster like your SC, then that is the route my friend. Honestly, I don't think I would of minded getting an IS-F for DD.

The last, 1Gen CTS had a lousy interior. That is definitely not the case with the newer, 2Gen model....the difference is like night and day.
