BTCC 850R would like a word

That might make sense when the new model first comes out, but most people I know almost exclusively buy off lease versions of these cars. I did, my E63S wagon was 3 years old and had 4k miles on it and I saved myself 25k.

List seems to be the perfect reasoning behind wait a few years and buy one of these used

wait a minute, you can’t just drop the phrase srt-4 swapped lebaron and keep it moving. more details please.

Terrible take, brand identity is super important. Think of the BMW Roundel or MB Three Pointed Star or Honda “H”. Ford’s logo is iconic to the point they can interchangeably use blue oval for it.

We can all talk about AA being evil and all that, and while I certainly don’t side with airlines (especially as a hyper frequent flier) but can we all agree the parents are truly idiots here? All minors flying alone get registered with the airline and they do extra checks to ensure that the kid gets on the plane and…

I was thinking about this when the case first came up, if he’s a minor the Airline would make the parents register him as an Unaccompanied Minor. Which is all the more likely WHY they checked his ID in the first place to ensure that he was indeed the unaccompanied minor that they’re now way more responsible for than…

Tickets were way more money back then too, if you fly in the nice cabins and go to the lounges and all that jazz flying can still be a nice experience. But we as a society decided we don’t care for the frills we want the cheapest possible seat and here we are.

Correct answer, these two videos I can’t believe no one else posted them

I hate crossovers because they’re effectively killing sedans and have killed wagons which are infinitely better to drive.

I’d argue (but only a little) that the big 3row CUV is the only actually useful CUV for most people. The 2nd row is usually quite spacious in them for daily use and the 3rd row is “fine” for a pinch and when not in use you get an actual trunk to put things in unlike the compact and midsize ones which practically…

We’ll see! I’m only comparing the 2 most current models

I transport medical equipment in my E63S daily, I basically keep the rear seats folded all the time haha

the E63S is better. The RS6 looks better, but if you drive both, the E63S does all the same things, but makes ALL the right noises and drives like perfection.

I drove the RS6 and E63S wagon when I was looking for my new daily and while I LOVED the looks of the RS6, the driving feel of the vehicle was pretty numb. The E63S on the other hand, looked a bit sedate but drove like absolute perfection so I went with that. Maybe had they brought out this one back then I might have…

I’m sure it will drive insane and amazing and it looks a treat, but I will miss engine noise from hypercars.

if they offer stripper versions it cheapens the lux version though. i get the sentiment but you can’t sell an 85k dollar vehicle very well if you sell a version of the same car for half the price, people will naturally choose the lower trim level and “deal” with the shortcomings

I wonder how many dealerships would actually order you a completely base XL f150 tbh

My big sadness was that Mercedes didn’t offer the E63 Wagon in Solarbeam from the factory and finding a Cardinal red one proved to be near impossible. Selenite Grey is nice sure, but it doesn’t hit the same (even if i love my car)

My gf has one of these things, I hate it but to each their own I suppose
