all these fancy new phones have no qwerty keyboard.

that's the only thing keeping me on blackberry, otherwise i'm quite over the shitty battery life and buggy os.

Cos iPhones got that longlife battery... lol

[PENGUYEN]

Since when do iphone battery's last long.

My note 2 can last 1d 16hr with moderate use. Go ape shit constantly and it'll klunk out in 10hrs.

[kaitoukid]

that's cuz 3100mAh battery is baws

[xALmoN]

might go samsung next, since there's bbm for android nao.

but touchscreen =(

[dezz]

I'd hate to have 100k to spend on a car

Suck it up princess

Don't necessarily have 100k to spend on a car... I do ok but it's more about having to continually purchase material things to make my life somewhat bearable. Not a very sustainable lifestyle but you get that

[dezz]

CLA looks gangster but that's really starting to stretch the budget.

Alex, you own your A5 or lease? PM if you want.

What's that say on his shirt.... Oh right, he's a typical VW driver dreaming of better things... Like an early 90's bmw.

[Leroy Peterson]

he actually designed that shirt and most of his own clothing. I do want that shirt but Odd Future dont sell it as merch

At least cars and bikes are better than hookers/cocaine

PM to discuss them feels if you wish

[KURAUN]

Also I believe the whole expensive to maintain stigma comes from the fake rich yuppies who know nothing about cars. They also leasing a car way beyond their means.

I think too it's also the wait time for parts, if it's a part that's not in stock expect to wait and people will bitch about it

[xALmoN]

people just want instant nowadays. so impatient.

[KURAUN]

Yeah always, I see it everyday

[emts]

yeah but cars and bikes plus hookers and cocaine is the best of both worlds no?

Thanks for the offer but I'll just keep dealing with it the way I do...

yeh.

5.5 twin turbo. late 2014 apparently.

they're hoping for 430kw though. the current 507 does 373kw.

driven the e63? thing is a menace

I'm gonna go ahead and say lease here.

Knowing Al I am going to assume he sees it as more savvy to use his capital to constantly invest rather than throwing it as a lump on a depreciating asset.

Lease my brother with my work I get mad returns on tax out of it otherwise id be cruisin in a Kia fo real.

Cla isn't as good in real life IMO something about the back slope seems goofy / less elegant than full size cls

Still nice though

If you want something nice Dezz id say spend 50-70 you'll get a very nice low kms good nick prestige car for that and you won't wear the pain of the 50% price drop in first 2 odd years

Cla is a bit of a stretch for a 4 cyl turbo.

But has heaps of street presence, 265 kw fuel economy is actually in existence.. Full new warranty servicing etc financed.

f**k those things go hard as well

That's the work one lol

But in saying that, driving dat v8 507 around last week was such a pleasure! Really have a different appreciation after getting in one.

The normal c63 (non 507) go for about $100k at auctions. And that's stretching it. Should look into that as an option. May end up walking away with something better for a lot cheaper

And not sAying this as a biased opinion.. The depreciation of BMW is fkn shocking. The safety features on merc seriously outrank the rest. And I've tested that at sandown lol

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Only had a quick glance but seemed to be second hand ones going for $100k...

Don't wanna go too old if I do go second hand though.. What kind of engine/power are they stock? I know nothing about BMW models

I like em, but too old. Maybe a 35..

Price VS Performance... Is what I am looking at... Comparing to the 335i.

R34 GTR = $40,000 + $10K or $15K = Win!

Yeah R35 is sweet.

But yeah, up to you...

Sure a 335i is a sweet car and different characteristics.

You driven one yet?
