same^ my rankings:

XLR

6-series-love the interior (red...drewl..), funkified exterior but the SL's is just too ho-hum

SL-good looking, hardtop, fast-SL65 AMG-HELL YA

996-I like its styling better than the 997s

997-sport and luxury but just doesn't seem as desirable for some reason

SC430-has a hardtop, but it's a little too cutsy

XK-underpowered, styling's ok but nothin to get worked up about, not very good reviews

Here are my rankings

1. 6 series- too expensive, but once I saw one in person, I've thought it was beautiful since. Very nice interior (at these prices they better be) and nice engine.
2. SC430 -Styling is not for everyone, but I think it's a beautiful car... not agressive enough for this class, but the interior is beautiful, and it's just very refined in every way.
3. XLR- Great car, but the styling isn't for me. Interior is good, but once again, design doesn't appeal to me too much. Engine is nice

.
4. SL- Gorgeous exterior and nice interior, but overpriced and overrated. It does sport better than the others I think, but it does it at too great a price, and isn't as smooth (refined) as some of the others.
5. Jag XK- Exterior is about as beautiful as any car on the road, in my opinion, but reliability and interior make it much less appealing to me.
6&7- Porsches... They look okay, but I don't think they're as beautiful as everyone seems to think, and I really don't like the interior. Nice engine, but reliability has been an issue with everyone I've known that's owned a Porsche.
