Thank you for watching and sharing

All the late cars they all have the same problems timming chains gearbox overheating etc etc😅😅😮😮 be careful what you buy buy a 25 year old Mercedes you'll never go wrong😊😊😊 😊

I would agree, by todays standards the B58 and B48 is better than many out there if it’s competition

Well the E46 generation and below were more reliable than current BMWs

​@@thegamer4646 My E46 fell apart after 90k miles. Fuel pump, o2 sensors, fuel rail, coil packs, AC, the steering pump, oil pump, one shock....the audio system shorted. No....just no. My E92 died at 120k miles though to the interior credit, the interior looked great. My X2 has 100k miles and still looks and feels new. Nothing....not a damn thing wrong with it other than tires and brakes.

@@randomguy3034same my m340 running smooth 80k miles

@@randomguy3034why did you purchase another Beemer after all that happened with the other ..? I would have lost faith in their brand ..

Haha, good morning

Lexus all the way

TMI 😂😂😂

Hater😂

Optioned out honda accord > Any c class mercedes

Thank you so much, I really appreciate the support from you and your wife. Hope you have a wonderful summer, looks like things are starting to warm up. Cheers

@@ECPPCheers from Australia 👍

You are welcome and quite right in that assessment

Exactly bro

Absolutely. Although I heard that "life's too short to drive boring cars". 😉

The Porsche 911 looks almost like the Porsche Boxster 981.

I agree with you 500 %

That’s going to be a problem

I traded in my 05 Infiniti g35 and and 08 M35 which I had for over 10 years. They were extremely reliable and never had any major issues. Yes they were older tech but rock solid and engine was silky smooth. Both were over 160k miles on the odometer.

Glad you like them! I appreciate your support. That means a lot to me as a smaller creator.

Thanks for the support

I agree, it has class and style and sounds great too. It’s a huge win

Out of the many cars I've owned, the Porsche 911 is the finest car I've ever owned. If you're in that segment, don't drive one unless you're prepared to make a potential switch.

@@dirkpalmer1067 You did NOT mention BE Repaired to get ripped off at Dealership on Maintenance!....It is no secret that the dealerships RIPP you off on service...to say nothing aabout a 150K car Plummeting on Re-Sale

@donaldbanner2185 did I need the CAPS? 😉 Recommend getting a CPO with renewal options to 15 years. If not, look up anticipated service costs on KBB prior to needs and use a certified independent mechanic. Join your local PCA for info share of local discounted shops, etc. Also, do your research so you are aware of potential issues with your model. E.g. Although the waterpump issue was mostly corrected, my 2019 4 gts is still a risk based on Porsche extending coverage for that part. Hope this helps!!!

Nice

Thank you

Right on!

Agreed on the update comment

Great to hear!

Thanks

Thanks, you too Thomas. Yes the Lexus LC509 has always been on the radar as a less sinful choice as it’s beautiful, plenty quick, and amazingly fun to drive. Can’t forget reliable. Definitely a look and honestly a nicer package than the AMG GT cars, in my opinion. Do I sense a little itch for a cool car purchase? Amazing choice. How have things been with you lately? Keeping busy?

@@ECPP interest rates are hurting us all in North America! More equity I can buy into the "grail" vehicle, the better! Definitely zeroed in on the 911 991.1S. the Lexus LC is lurking in the background, however. But I do like the Jaguars. "Health is wealth", never more true. But I'm waiting for after the election to see interest rates go down. Hopefully! Keep up the videos! Great to see the Channel grow!

Thank you so much and I agree, with some things happen lately, its even more clear about how health and family matter most. With that said, I really appreciate your support and its great to see that you have a passion for cool cares as I do. All great choices. The Porsche 911 is probably the best long term answer especially considering resale, and a 991 is an amazing car. First generation is likely the best holder from an enthusiast perspective and the generation 2 adds a punch factor that is intoxicating. Hope spring has finally sprung there Thomas.

Thank you! Cheers! In which way. I have changed a few things.

That’s fair

Toyota and bmw both worked on this engine, so Toyota helped them reach the top 😏🔥

That sounds like a solid experience as most people have in these new generationa

Agree. 2017 Infiniti QX70 with 95,000 miles w/ 325 HP Naturally aspired 6-cylinder engine has been totally problem free. This was the last year of the this model too.

Sounds good. Glad to has been largely trouble free .

Thanks for watching. Any favourites?

Wastegates

That’s fair. Thanks for sharing

Yes I would say Lexus is going to be the most reliable but there are many other fun, great drives, that offer some nice driving and style while maybe only giving marginal levels of durability. Lexus is top for downright reliability.

Nice to look at, great tech, and light engine but a little fragile

Cheers

That’s fair. Still better than most non S and RS models

Yes thanks for dropping a line

Haha, I have considered it, but the F Type is too much fun

Yes that helps

Nice

Haha nice

That’s a fair comment

Nice

They are a very reliable SUV

I thought for a second - before you showed the 911 - that you skipped the RX (that's an RX I think) because of something 😁 It's a shame that they are almost non existent in the country I live in - only german cars, mostly VWs. Somehow people do not like/buy any japanese cars here

Nice

Yikes that’s not good. Hope it gets a bit better

Which one did you get and was it new or used?

What about it? They suck ass and are pure junk.

Haha nope

Pass.

Cheers

Yes luxury means extra money for things that are not totally necessary

If you go bankrupt over a car, you should buy a moped to fit your budget. 😂

ISF and RCF or LC500

Yes I agree they are sliding and a nice alternative but not with a Lexus or even a newer BMw

Volvo is not even a luxury brand.

Thanks

Yes they seem to be

Good morning

Get it, you won't regret it. It's very easy to work on and the b58 engine with a Zf trans is amazing thats why toyota put this engine and trans into the supra

Well….

@@ECPP not even the B58 one, huh

Ouch

That’s true and in N America many Acura models are branded Hondas in other markets, ie NSX

@@ECPP Yes In N America. Sad because when you think you are buying a Acura like in the 90's you are getting and over priced Honda. LOL

Thanks

Cheers

Only the S or RS models are good. Start away from 4 cylinders.

That’s fair. Lexus is one of the most reliable these days

Nice

Somewhat

Yes it is and the C class is life or less the same, but they are a simpler car than the bigger S and E class cars and far less to deal with once a car piles on miles.

@@ECPP Hey Mark! The CLA 2.0 L meaning the OM 654(1941cc) produced from 2016 in diesel and gasoline as well as the older M270 1991 cc 2011 launch and more recent M260 are all Benz made. Don't give in to Benz bashing fools who says things like "The cla is a dci Renault engine car hope you know.." Those peeps have never even been within a foot of a Benz interior Renault only produced smaller 1500 diesel and to 1600 cc engines as Benz felt it wasn't their forte at the time they were trying to penetrate the compact car segment of the market.. I'm a big fan of the M256 in line 6 and my wifes OM654 diesel is so far so good at 12,000 k/m and now 4 years old. Only time will tell,l but the rocker arms and lifters may wear out prematurely. EGR valves and coolers as well. The heat from the turbo also causes the fasteners on plugs to fail which can throw a bad code or engine check light. It happened to me and Benz fixed it free eventhough the warranty was expired by a month. I rerally like your videos and think you're a decent type chap! Sorry for the long spiel

The predecessor to the W218 platform and the latter are both powered by Mercedez Benz motors The CLA in this video is and was a 2.0 L. Of several as follows: OM 654 M and (Q with electrical assist)1941cc .Produced from 2016 in diesel and gasoline, as well as the older M270 1991 cc 2011 launch and more recent M260 are all Benz made. Not Renault engines..Hope you now know! Douche bag!

Zero dollars

All good. Thanks for watching

Predictably and understandably
