BMW vs Mercedes-Benz

Postby The Grand Ocean » Mon Mar 07, 2011 2:22 pm

So I'm looking for a small German car, and I wanna know which of the Big 3 (Volkswagen is out because of family issues) would be the best used car?

*And yes I know it only says "BMW vs Mercedes-Benz" my mistake! :palm:

They might. It would be upgraded quite a bit from the Asian version. And would be more expensive because of it.

BMW's look rather stunning, in my opinion, and Merces I find to be (generally) plain and unappealing. And yes, that really is all that matters.
we, unlike the bourgeoisie, have nothing to lose and therefore our expression will be the only honest one, our words will be the only challenging ones and our art will be the one revolutionary expression. We need new noise and new voices and new canvases to become something more than the last poets of a useless generation.

Benzes are sporty luxury cars and Beamers are luxurious sports cars.

Personally I'd go for the Audi, the A6 is nice and I'm sure quite a bit less expensive than a Mercedes or BMW

I guess it depends on what you want out of your 'small German car.' I think when it comes to 'small' of those three Audi is the one that packs the most into the smallest package, with the A3 and TT.

From a personal preference I like the S4, then the M3, then the SLK AMG. The latter, apparently, packed a bunch into a small package. And every automotive journalist on the planet it seems likes the M3. I like all-wheel drive, and have been a long time fan of Audi racing from the quattros in the 80s, so I tend toward Audi in my preferences.

I drove a BMW 320d on the Autobahn at 140mph, that was awesome. I have moved a few Benz' and there is just too much crap going on in those cars.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.
