I couldn’t stand to drive an Accord 2.0t every day, it would bore the shit outta me. I’d much rather spend a little more on maintenance and have something thats fun

Tbf the inline sixes sound great under load, but for revving sound kinda shit. My clownshoe sounds lovely when Im whipping through the gears, but Id never try to give anyone a rev fight like I do with my M60 powered E34 that sounds like its shredding the atmosphere apart
Yup, I saw one in our service bay one time at the dealership. Had a dogleg box, it was sweet. Personally I’d answer this questions by buying an inline 6 Z3 with a stick given how cheap they are, but I’m biased cause I have a clownshoe
Exactly lol. Its only impossible to own two vehicles if you’re the type of person that never owns a vehicle outright
Eh only if you’re spending all of your money towards monthly payments and don’t ever own anything outright. If you own things outright, its totally feasible.
Well you probably had the competition bucket seats then, which most don’t have. The normal seats are super comfy and the bolsters dynamically hold you in turns and can heat/cool your butt whilst giving you a massage. Even my buddys old E55 has that and is super comfy
I have an oxford green with tan shoe and an e34 as well lol
I know all the differences I just think its funny because people go on and on trashing these motors and then you see them hopping into a Nissan Altima or some lame shit for the most part. I can’t stand when people tear down cars especially when they themselves drive severely boring cars, not that this was the case…
Lol so what beast do you drive that makes you say stuff like that about an s52 as if its trash? Cause usually the people I see say that stuff havent owned either of the two engines or anything interesting
Carplay is the solver for putting directions in with the knob. Im super upset Mercedes has gotten rid of the center scroll wheel that was like Mazdas system but better. Now all I keep hearing is how I have the choice between the touchpads on the wheel, the touchpad, or the touchscreen so theres a choice for everyone!…
Well I guess I won’t be getting one anytime soon then. My grandma will be passing me down her 90s E320 (I think its a 94?) so maybe I’ll go crazy and try and swap an AMG motor in there.
What about the E55s? Saw one back in our service bay two days ago, that thing looked awesome
One with like 4k miles just went for over 90 on BAT. Your dads is probably worth at least 30 though.
My guess is its really just a stock E34 chassis with a motor and drivetrain swap rather than actually on an 850 chassis. A lot of guys swap control arms with the 8 series for the better bushing it uses, and maybe he thinks doing that is enough?
Yeah that whole dropped onto an 850 chassis sounded suspect. Lots of E34 guys swap to 8 series lower control arms because it uses a better bushing, so maybe he did that, but that still is nothing close to the same chassis
Benz has been doing those ashtrays and climate controlled cupholders for a while now.
Lol AD is nowhere close
