It’s been documented.

Have you been inside an ATS-V? Go do that, and then sit inside a C63. That’ll start to show you were that extra weight comes from.

The C63 seems to have no trouble getting around corners. Weight transfer isn’t an issue in modern, stiff balanced cars with wider tires.

AMG cars have handled pretty well for almost a decade now. BMW still has the edge for now, but that is starting to change.

Seems like a very cool option, must-have if you have an ATV or something like that.

If you can afford it, I don’t understand what’s so insane about it. Things cost money. After a while, driving around a worn out piece of shit gets pretty old.

Right, of course, anyone buying something that costs more than what you personally can afford is a moron who is terrible with money and is clearly only doing it to impress people.

I mean, obviously someone.

Yes. They are different. Which leads to different preferences in risk-taking, and other factors that play into it. I’m sorry but you’ll have to do better than “Men R Evil!” to explain why men are more interested in auto racing, by an order of magnitude at least, vs. women. For someone that is such a fan of science,

The government was instrumental in lowering mortgage standards...that was the main culprit of the housing crisis and the subsequent economic collapse. Leaving that little piece of info out changes the picture entirely.

You seemed to be upset with the fact that some people would rather buy an older luxury car vs. a newer economy car. Not everyone doing this is doing it to impress someone else, or for the badge. Some are, sure. But not as many as are thought to be, I’m sure.

They are zero emissions, that’s like saying the corn you bought isn’t organic because the farmer that grew it eats McDonald’s.

Good for them. This isn’t Germany.

Don’t give in to these pant-wetters. It was a harmless joke.

What do you mean not ok? Holy shit, learn to take a joke...

God that’s a beautiful car. Drove a very nice 2005 S55 a few weeks ago, but just can’t get past the interior. Compared to the W221, it’s many light years behind in quality and materials. Also - feels much older to drive, that’s for sure. But it was still a very cool car. And there’s something very sinister about a

You’re either lying or a blind, deaf quadriplegic. Seriously, don’t be that guy.

if you can’t afford the maintanence on a 335i you probably shouldn’t be buying anything without a “Corolla” badge on the rear deck. Jesus, they’re not that bad at all. And I can promise you a “328i” badge isn’t fooling anyone.

Yeah, fuck those people for buying cars they like! How stupid!

I mean if you’re paying 2k for a set of tires on almost anything short of a super car you’re getting robbed blind.
