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

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

At least cars and bikes are better than hookers/cocaine

PM to discuss them feels if you wish

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

the C63 is about to go, the 507 edition is apparently the last car to have that 6.2L V8 in it.

the repalcement will be smaller capacity and prob turboed,

the new Eand S63 are now 5.5L TT

mgiht get deturned version of thost..or some other secret motor..

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

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

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

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 post-77654-13866295148547_thumb.jpgpost-77654-13866295267874_thumb.jpgpost-77654-13866295375879_thumb.jpg

That's the work one lol post-77654-13866295698368_thumb.jpgpost-77654-1386629583697_thumb.jpg

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

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?

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
