Why not contribute something positive to the thread if you have experience with these cars?

no need to bash people for trying to give their .02

Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born.

My penis is bigger than your penis

I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.

Did you change the brake fluid????? Do you take yours to dealer for first service?

And shit a oil change at a dealer for any of those higher end cars is 350- 1000$....

Ya it's not 15 grand a year like said by someone else but in 5 years you got a coil or anything go out you better be prepared to drop 1500$ plus no questions asked.... You have to agree there....

Pretty sure the 450 h f sport is k. Their website and starts at 69.... Soooo lots of car for the money....

Both of them were/are dealer maintained....BMW has their 4/50,000 mile service where EVERYTHING including oil changes is free with the exception of rubber parts tires,hoses etc....I agree with you on the oil changes panamera oil change is $550 every 7500 miles...car takes 11.5 qts of 0w-40 synthetic Lol...most expensive thing I've paid so far was brakes....$3800 for a front and rear pad slap only after taking it to the track a few times..so my track days are a lot more limited now Lol.....in case anyone is wondering the brakes are beast from the factory 15.2in rotors front with 6 piston calipers and 13.8in rear with 4 piston calipers

And that's non Ceramic I take it?

Most of the high end cars cost this much to maintain gotta pay to play

But we are talking 400 hp and up cars stock that is pretty impressive

Tesla yearly service is 1000 plus so I mean 10 years they got 10k back

did you suggest SRT8? would be pretty badass.

still, if go fast wasn't a criteria, the EcoDiesel Grand Cherokee fully loaded would still make a nice ass DD

I was waiting for you to blast my exact number choice....it's hard to pinpoint because prices changed year to year so much.

To me answering your advice about the choices: is simple

See well there is a difference between you and the average person

You picked cars that you can easily work on ls motor t56;6060, really solid proven stuff

Don't get me wrong from a hotrodders standpoint or a shop owner I see why you would pick that the American muscle, but to someone who is going to pay for the maintenance at a dealer or if you get it all included (even better in a car of that stature where a coil can be 500 plus easy and injectors shit some have 16 injectors) pick the Benz for little more and if they are paying for the maintenance you are just driving pure luxury

One huge thing to consider is are you going to aggressively drive it

Bmw

And Audi will handle best

Benz will be most comfortable "luxurouious"

Cadillac is probably best "rounded" package havnt been in Cadillac or hellcat)

Hellcat is just all show hp IMO; but if you wanna go quick stop light to stop light it's a different car.....

I hate to say it but it's a really nice motor surrounded by a dodge, yikes....

And that is a good thing for you because if they didnt you'd be poor lol.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
