remember, if you can't afford a german luxury car new you can't afford it used.
The best summary I've heard for these is:
"The car depreciated, but the maintenence hasn't."
What about the car itself
its kind of a worse in every way C7.
Have you driven either
Yes, and its kind of a worse in every way C7.
Is that why its the fastest front engine sports car ever made?
the shitbox in the OP isn't even faster than a mid-tier camaro. so i guess OP should save up to buy the only one that's actually good or stay away.
Of course he hasn't. Keep in mind these people:
Are poor and most likely
1) live in an apartment
2) live with their parents
But it is a 100% certainty they drive a shitbox.
You will get more mires per dollar than probably any other car on the market. This and the 2018-2020 Aston Martin Vantage are the most bang for your buck.
>a depreciated euroshitbox is the most bang for your buck
this is how people who actually live in apartments think.
I own a home. If you're making fun or apartments I guess that means you live with mommy haha PC posting from mommy's basement on a Saturday
It is, though.
You don't have a driver's license, do you?
its not, though. you have a double digit IQ don't you?
>you are le poor because you consider the cost of spare parts like anyone with half a brain would
>I am totally a richgay for buying a used performance car that had depreciated to rock bottom
moron
>too broke and stupid to just pay $5000 for an extended warranty
This is why you're poor and stupid. LOL @ paying for parts and worrying about the cost everytime something goes wrong. Can't wait for you to come up with some schizophrenic drivel about how warranties are ACKSHUALLY bad and/or expose your poorhomosexualry by talking about how you can't afford $5k for a 5 year, 60k mile warranty
stop LARPing moron, it's obvious you are underage
if you are rich you buy the car new, you don't go looking for deals and extended warranties like some 50IQ wrenchlet that got his first ever paycheck
it's not a fricking miata we're talking about
>if you are rich you buy the car new
Youre the only one talking about "rich" you illiterate inbred. Are you making up arguments in your mind right now? Hahaha take your meds, fatass
read this very carefully, lad, and try to do the math yourself
<1% of the world population makes more than £100k a year
this vehicle, used, is listed for £50,000, which is ~$62,500
that is roughly the yearly salary of an average US citizen
YOU can not afford this new or used, neither can your daddy who's paying your bills and doing a shit job of financially educating you.
Before you try to sound smart with another very stupid reply, make sure you post your dad's car with a timestamp so everyone here knows who's calling them poor
> <1% of the world population makes more than £100k a year
And? What does this have to do with literally anything I previously said? Are you seriously trying to act like a measly $100k/ year makes you "rich"? Hahahaha what a broke b***h. 1 in 5 Americans make $100k a year. This is why we call you euroPOORS.
You don't even know what you're arguing about. Your schizo brain is making up arguments and excuses to complain about being a brokie
Still waiting for you to post car little man
Where are you getting those numbers? That's absolutely brutal. Is that from the current year / adjusted for all the inflation?
Dude it really is.
Especially once out of warranty.
They are completely different cars though.
>RWD
>V8
>Front engine
>both mass produced flagships of their respective manufacturers
they are practically the same.
One is a half GT and the other is a muscle car.
marketing buzzwords for two cars that are practically the same.
How are they buzzwords
Because they don't actually describe any real world practical differences between the cars.
It's actually better in every way
Not really. smaller trunk, higher maintenance, slower, less aftermarket.
Car and Driver says it's faster
Not really.
>you're a "wrenchlet" if you don't want to fix a broken german car
>but you also shouldn't use said wrench to modify your car
lmao
Looks like it's track and driver dependent
Looks like cope
I'll exclusively race at Autozeitung test track then
and you'll just lose to convertible C7s instead.
>C7
>C7
>faster
>C7
>faster
>faster
This homie sleeps in one of these
>"less aftermarket"
The fact youd modify this Mercedes tells us all we need to know about you.
Not only that, but he said "less" instead of "fewer."
...although you didn't catch on to that part either, so that tells me what I need to know about both of you.
"Fewer aftermarket". OK nvm OP is definitely a shitskin
Who are you quoting? Take your meds and get some fresh air lil timmy
>OK nvm OP is definitely a shitskin
>76.3 inches wide
>73.6 inches wide
Somehow the pigfat Corvette actually wins in being less pigfat than something else.
You still need a car less than 69 inches wide to be any good on the street.
They both weigh 1560kg
Width matters on a street car. You can't go full bore down a fun road if you have zero room to do the 99%/100%/101% dance. If sliding an inch at 101% is going to put you into oncoming traffic or into a boulder you can't push it to the limit.
You can push a smol car further because you have more room to correct a mistake.
It's not like you could ever 99 percent either of these cars normally
What do you mean?
I was just doing 60 around those exact corners two hours ago.
60 seems pretty normal
>the 99%/100%/101% dance
wdhmbt
You find the limit by going just over it, then pulling back.
You don't know you're at 100% until you hit 101. So when taking a corner you keep digging further in and then releasing a hair when you've gone too far. So you're constantly dancing between, "I can go a little further because I'm at 99%" and, "I have to let off because there's 101%."
>They both weigh 1560kg
one is clearly heavier than the other
wrenchlet cope
Cost of parts hasn't depreciated, morons.
I've never owned a car I didn't work on myself and I don't want to work on one of those frickign things. Have you seen what the engine bay looks like? How far in and back the engine is? Every simple job is going to involve hours of leaning way over those wide fenders. I even have a lift but that's not going to help me stooping down and bending way over to deal with this fricking crap.
/o/:
>i hate cars with bad weight distribution, hehe audi is dumb for putting the engine in front of the rear axle, amirite?
DA when a manufacturer makes a car with FMR layout for better weight distribution:
>nooo, not like that!
shut up moron. That has nothing to do with my post at all. This is a car you pay someone to work on, like all exotic configurations. homosexual. Black person. Gaylord.
>That has nothing to do with my post at all.
>How far in and back the engine is?
Ok
>homosexual. Black person. Gaylord.
Seethe harder
Try finding the turbos
Nobody wrenches on these cars, anon.
Hell, no.
I drive one.
Exactly, fricking homosexuals scared to work on a car.
Bullshit. No one wants to work on a german car. 0 space, parts are a b***h to find.
Asian cars and "American" cars are always so much easier to buy parts for and then actually work on; half the time you can just use a part from some other random car, and you will always have access to 90% of the car.
it's funny to see young arab guys driving old AMGs
you know what will happen the next time the guy rolls into the shop on but he don't
If you have to ask you can't afford it. If you can afford used German repairs, you can afford new car/lease payments.
This.
>If you have to ask you can't afford it. If you can afford used German repairs, you can afford new car/lease payments.
^Wisdom. The used car lot I worked for refused to buy Mercs and when it took one in trade (at appropriately low value) that went straight to Copart on our next auction run.
I feel nothing for the AMG GT but kneel in the presence of the AMG GT3. Why didn't the street car get her excellent exhaust note?
This car attracts so much attention on the street, you'd think it was a Lamborghini or Ferrari
.......why doesn't this hold its value while the SLS AMG does?
They made about 6000 more, doesn't have the gullwing doors, has toned down styling, and has a toned down 4.0 instead of the 6.2. I'm sure the GT is the objectively better car but the "soulless and clinical" meme prevails
>moronic wrenchlet post
>moronic wrenchlet replies
hahaha yeah dude buy it, you deserve it
that's still not remotely good for a perishable that usually costs under 20 euro you fricking dog
and now check actual car part prices, like body parts and plastics and suspension components
>Mercedes AMG parts cost more than normal car parts
Shocking
post car busriders
>calls others wrenchlets
>too stupid to retrofit better brakes with cheaper pads
>wants to purchase a 4.0L european supercar just to rip out and frankenstein the brakes so he can save money
what did he mean by this?
Shmee150, the you-tuber with a multi-million Pound car collection, raves about these. I'm sure they're very good.
It's breddy good
It's probably a fantastic drive when it works but it's a German halo car, it's going to be extremely expensive to maintain.
If I have the money, do I go for Porsche 911, BMW M5 or Mercedes-AMG S-Class? Mostly city driving.
>city driving
get a bicycle or an electric scooter and thank me later
I want to show off
before you make these decisions consider the following
>do I have a garage
>do I live somewhere where my car wont attract unwanted criminal and/or law enforcement attention
>would I be happier with something older but equally as cool
Once you go through these and feel like you still want what you want, I'd personally choose the 911 since it is both the biggest status symbol and the most sporty out of the 3.
An S Class is the biggest status symbol. 911s are for midlife crises
>An S Class is the biggest status symbol
Most normies can not differentiate between A-Class and S-Class. So to them it looks like another Mercedes
911 is immediately recognized as a Porsche. An more exotic and expensive car.
I do have a garage, but I'm not sure about criminal attention. There are people parking expensive cars in some places, but what prevents someone from stealing it in the downtown or whenever I go anywhere outside of my garage really? What's the least likely one to get stolen?
The part about 911 being seen as a bigger status symbol seems correct though
garage is more for having a safe space to work away from prying eyes and keep your car sheltered during weather conditions that could be inconvenient and propagate rust
>911
How much more likely is it to get stolen than the other two?
For city driving I would always take the smallest car with the tightest turning radius
what is the though process of having money for a new car and buying an S class if you are going to drive it
get a 911, it will be fun
Well it's an AMG, the thought process is that it's supposed to be better for driving yourself than a regular one
I would disagree that an AMG s class has better ride quality than a regular one
or is mercedes moronic? making their sportier car comfier?
911 vs s class is a biigggg difference
>OP makes hypothetical thread about buying a used and depreciated supercar
>bunch of assumptions about financial situation and wrenching
I'm sure this thread was meant to be asking for opinions about the car itself
