What do you all think about the G70? Seems pretty competitive.

If i was in the market for a luxobarge sedan (which I do love but can’t afford a weekend car plus my truck plus my 235i yet) I’d absolutely look into a G70.

This isn't that big it's about the size of a c class.

I mean for me it’s huge- but yeah I didn’t think it was a S class mayback or anything haha

If people complained that the ATS had too small of a rear seat they'll think the same thing of the G70. That back seat is TINY and I'm only 5'8".

As much as I'm not a fan of such comparisons, at first glance the rear looks kind of like a mix between a C class and a 2 series. 🤔

The aesthetic weak point of both cars, although I'd argue that the W205 is unappealing from all angles.

On a side note this guy does the best auto reviews on YouTube imo, he's honest and straight to the point.

Yes, truly horrible. Was sitting behind a C63S last night and it's got so many styling doo dahs, bits of chrome, license plate nubs, angles everywhere that it makes a Civic Type R look almost restrained.

Car & Driver 10Best for 2019. 'Nuff said.

It basically took the place of the Giulia on the list for 2019. The other four-door notchbacks on the list are the M-B E-Class and the ugly-AF Accord -- both repeat winners.
