Well the previous generation of C/E/S all pretty much sucked in terms of durability/reliability. W203/211 were the low points in Benz's history, so I'm not surprised your E55 with the supercharged V8 had a lot of problems. Post 2008 Benzs were far better in terms of reliability as far as I know. Yes the magic body…

You don't have an extended warranty when you mod your car. Then again plenty of people seem to think they are entitled to warranty even if they mod their car when the ToS specifically states no warranty if modified.

You're comparing an engine that doesn't have to adhere to the emission/mpg requirement of today. Your comparison is only valid if the RS4 can output the same amount of power it does while hitting the same emission/mpg as the S55, which we know is highly unlikely. Feel free to prove me wrong though.

All "xx63" AMGs with the M156 have proven to be stout and reliable when it comes to the engine/drivetrain, and the recent class action lawsuit launched back in 2011 was by a guy who had a lot of mods to his leased car. The 5.5L supercharged V8 and the 6.0L turbo cars are the ones with more potential problems, but that…

Slightly lighter than the 3 series but way more cramped. Yeah the 1-series(M) was really great.

That'd make sense except they started from 0 again and we all know the 5 series are NOT meant for 10 yr olds.

Matt that links needs login cred. to read. Got a link that doesn't?

If by half-assing you mean acting sane and NOT offering a wagon like pretty much every other manufacturer is doing then yes, they're half-assing. And for all the jalops who claim they will buy a something-wagon(has to be manual!), how many will actually buy them new? Very few as it would seem, as has been shown with…

Do you mean a new B3 or an used one in 15 years? I thought the B3 is not available in Canada or the States?

It would've been lifetime of disability and it still would've been posted here. It's unwise for the victim to not have worn seatbelt, but for God's sake she's dead. De mortuis nil nisi bene [dicendum] “Of the dead, nothing [spoken] unless good.” Especially for someone who didn't commit some atrocious crime?

"Order to surrender". Sounds more like they cannot take it from him by force. If this reciprocation were in place they wouldn't have needed to order him to surrender his DL.

I wasn't trying to say that was a stupid question. I was saying it's not like it's that hard to figure out by just hopping over to the local dealer.

Those mini kidneys are actually made with living cells not plastic so there's that. But yeah it'll be a while before your kidney will be worth as little as a hamburger :P

They're all just decent cars that pale in comparison to whatever most other luxury auto makers offer at the same price point. Might as well kill off Lincoln.

Did you know that scientists have succeeded in 3D printing working mini kidneys? So yeah not going to be worth much very soon :P

It's a civic, I'd think heel-toeing is the last thing on the bean counters mind when they okay'd the manual.

Heh but I'd wager this will be much more reliable than any Audi(including the R8) and much simpler to set up for track.

Matt, would you prefer the snap crackle and pop exhaust sound from the F-type over the C7's? Jezza seemed to have really liked the exhaust sound so. Not that his opinions mattered most of the time of course :P

Or actually hop over to your local corvette dealer and look at one? Not like gas is *that* expensive....

So everything is about 3 times as much as it is in the states. I refuse to pay 152k for an accord. Might as well just get a mazda 3 and spend that extra 50k on something useful. Not like there's anywhere far you can drive in Singapore to matter anyway....
