Purple_Cheetah 05/06/21 1:37:03 AM #52:	Oh yeah, that stuff about used Mercedes reminds me, there's actually a whole thing about them. They're fairly solid, but once something breaks, it's literally cheaper to buy a whole new car instead of trying to fix that one small thing. So if you get one used and something, even as small as the cupholder or window doesn't work, you'll probably never get it fixed, unless you want to dump 20-80k. It's impressive. There's apparently lots full of once 100-150k mercedes selling for under 20k, but no one wants to touch em for this reason. <cite>Purple_Cheetah posted [p:953608670] in Should I g...

I forget which era, but they did have a very complicated and fancy cupholder that deployed. It'd cost a few hundred or thousands to fix. Some also have hydraulic windows, which is a fortune to fix as well. Either way the main advice for getting a used Mercedes is that they can turn into money pits fast. It's kinda like the Chrysler Crossfire that was around briefly. Only a 30-35k or so Chrysler, but it uses a Mercedes sourced V6, so maintence isn't normal Chrysler. Also used special low profile tires which were expensive at the time. That high number wasn't specifically for one part, but rather taken from various sources pointing out why you see them so cheap.

KaZooo 05/09/21 1:09:40 AM #66:	I'd vote Acura. I do think the Honda UI is one of the better ones in the market, and typically they've been a bit ahead (like AA and Carplay years before some competitors). A European car will of course have better on-paper performance, but you're never going to see any car at this level at its limit. On one hand, it does seem like a Honda/Acura/Infiniti is so expensive to the point you might as well shop a BMW/Audi/MB, but in reality the latter is more expensive to maintain after warranty. It's really a case of finding out "you're not doing THAT well" financially, if the situation is "flexing" to upgrade to one of those cars. I do drive a Nissan Z, and have rented the Infiniti QX50. Nissan is in a bit of "clean slate" phase as they transition from Ghosn. Their previous gen products and support imo was iffy. I couldn't trust my Z with a dealer most of the time unless it as a flagship. The QX50 literally felt like a Nissan. I also thought the large infotainment interface was stupid. I've driven most of the Lexus F line and it does feel different than a Toyota. Although there are things I'm not 100% hot about with Lexus either. It is true through that Toyota and Honda have been making much better interiors than before. If you don't need that badge and mechanical indulgence, you might literally be happy with a high-spec'd Camry or Accord. --- Competing every night, both ends, shoot inside/outside, fast break, transition, Monta Ellis have it all <cite>KaZooo posted [p:953713185] in Should I g...

Super Saiyan 3 Goku 05/09/21 1:29:33 AM #67:	I drive a 2013 Acura TL SH-AWD. This car was my first in the premium/luxury segment and I've had the car for about 5 years now. I got this specific model of the TL because I didn't want to sacrifice performance for reliability as you might for a German car. The car has been dependable all this while and the body exterior/interior has held up well. The Milano leather is slightly aromatic and you can tell when you get into the car on a warmer day. I also like the grumble from the exhaust when you start it first thing in the morning - very sporty. The Acura dealership experience has been great too. They treat you well and are very accommodating. I can get a free loaner from them anytime I need - and those loaners are often loaded and not the base model cars. --- When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don't adjust the goals, adjust the action steps. - Confucius <cite>Super Saiyan 3 Goku posted [p:953713713] in Should I g...

Acura at least has the NSX supercar and they're working on Type S-ing everything in their lineup starting with the current TLX. The NSX isn't a supercar, it's neither exclusive enough, expensive enough, nor priced high enough.

greatmonkeybaby 05/09/21 1:36:02 PM #83:	AlBundy33 posted... The people saying nissan is garbage have never driven one, they've had some problems in the past, but I have a Nissan Altima that runs like a top, much better than the piles of shit some manufacturers push out(Ford, chevy, BMW, Mercedes, etc) I'd get an infiniti, they are much better than some people claim True! KaZooo posted... I'd vote Acura. I do think the Honda UI is one of the better ones in the market, and typically they've been a bit ahead (like AA and Carplay years before some competitors). A European car will of course have better on-paper performance, but you're never going to see any car at this level at its limit. On one hand, it does seem like a Honda/Acura/Infiniti is so expensive to the point you might as well shop a BMW/Audi/MB, but in reality the latter is more expensive to maintain after warranty. It's really a case of finding out "you're not doing THAT well" financially, if the situation is "flexing" to upgrade to one of those cars. I do drive a Nissan Z, and have rented the Infiniti QX50. Nissan is in a bit of "clean slate" phase as they transition from Ghosn. Their previous gen products and support imo was iffy. I couldn't trust my Z with a dealer most of the time unless it as a flagship. The QX50 literally felt like a Nissan. I also thought the large infotainment interface was stupid. I've driven most of the Lexus F line and it does feel different than a Toyota. Although there are things I'm not 100% hot about with Lexus either. It is true through that Toyota and Honda have been making much better interiors than before. If you don't need that badge and mechanical indulgence, you might literally be happy with a high-spec'd Camry or Accord. oh I see for sure then! but yeah I have cut off every male I know irl im not trying to flex what I can afford on anybody I just have a lot of driving to do and wanted to buy the most reliable car I could that I liked and I just happen to have liked mainly luxury types since birth(it doesnt have to be thee most luxurious though). I probably will get a Acura though if BMW/Audi/Mercedes draw too much attention Super Saiyan 3 Goku posted... I drive a 2013 Acura TL SH-AWD. This car was my first in the premium/luxury segment and I've had the car for about 5 years now. I got this specific model of the TL because I didn't want to sacrifice performance for reliability as you might for a German car. The car has been dependable all this while and the body exterior/interior has held up well. The Milano leather is slightly aromatic and you can tell when you get into the car on a warmer day. I also like the grumble from the exhaust when you start it first thing in the morning - very sporty. The Acura dealership experience has been great too. They treat you well and are very accommodating. I can get a free loaner from them anytime I need - and those loaners are often loaded and not the base model cars. Another win for Acura! pogo_rabid posted... The only Acura worth getting is the NSX, and there are better options in that segment. Infinity is just OEM+ Nissan I like the NSX too a lot! DarkProto05 posted... Also, I would avoid Honda/Acura because those catalytic converters get stolen often.
