[blablabla]

[b1imtf]

CLS is cheaper and better looking IMO.

[Jailblazers7]

My man. CLS is probably my favorite dream car that is affordable.

I like the Audi A7 better. I'm not a Mercedes guy. I actually dislike most Mercedes cars. The lower-end versions are a Honda just without the Honda logo. CLS is very nice too but the A7 has a slighter edge in my opinion.

The i8 is very nice as well but I don't like electric cars. However, I better get used to them because electric cars are the future.

Audi is VW

VW owns Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Porsche

they are forming a monopoly of high end cars...they just need to buy out Ferrari now



Mercedes is just Mercedes (and Maybach)...same with BMW (who own Rolls Royce)

[nathanjizzle]

mercedes are the best looking luxury cars out.

Sorry, but it's true. I have friends that have a Mercedes C 300 and think they are riding in something nice. Little do they know that they are actually riding in a Honda with a Mercedes logo. Although the interior is not Honda-like. The bland exterior is though.

what exactly about it is "a honda with a benz logo"?

I was referring more to the C300 but the CLA 250 is much nicer than the C300 because of the curvaceous rear the CLA 250 has. The C300 is similar to a Honda in the fact that the body type is similar. I might be wrong but that CLA might be closer to $40k because those rims are definitely not standard. Also a few other added options as well. Overall, CLA 250 like 10x better than the C300 in my opinion.

MERCEDES is not a "honda" with a Mercedes badge. just from looking on the outside the paint is alot higher quality. mercedes is probably one of the best vehicle car manufacturers their is.

Mercedes has BMW beat in everything but the driving experience.

I prefer a benz overall, but there is nothing that I have driven that drives better than a beema. NOTHING.

Not including any supercars or porsches.

I've driven a beamer, hated how it drove.

Don't like german cars in general.

Audi s5 felt better than any Beamer I've driven and I valet park. So I drive a lot of nice cars.

[Draz]

BMW 335i 2012+ is beautiful. I'm more sporty so two door coupe.

Hard to do Gull Wing doors on a street car.. parking garages with lower ceilings can be a bit difficult

[JamiesChrist]

Audi>

[lefthook00]

Nice whip but a car that looks like that needs more than 360~ hp...

I prefer the 6 series/M6.

i'm gonna have to agree with this. i enjoy driving the s5 over a comparable m3

fvk cars

small dick nggas


:oldlol: I've never been much for cars as a status symbol. I'd much rather spend money on other things. Just give me something comfortable, reliable, safe (as safe as cars can be).

I do see the appeal of performance vehicles though.

[mlh1981]

This car would totally fit within the parameters of my teacher salary lol.
