When I was choosing a car, I was torn between BMW, Mercedes, and Audi. I test-drove maybe 7 or 8 cars, but I felt like the A4 was about to get a refresh, and the C-Class performance was just average. So when I tried the 2025 3 Series, I didn’t hesitate—I ordered it right away. I’ve had it for about two weeks now and have driven around 1,200 km. Overall impression: excellent! The black color gives it a luxurious and sporty look at the same time, and I chose the interior in “Volcanic Red” – a bold and elegant color that I personally loved. The acceleration is smooth, and the moment you press the gas, especially toward the end of the pedal travel, you really feel the car’s power. As for the big screen (which many people complain about), I was like you at first—I didn’t like it, and I thought the curved screen in the Cadillac looked better. But once I saw the car in person, I got used to it and even started liking it—it’s actually nice and comfortable to use. Regarding the gear selector, many say the traditional gear stick was part of the car’s spirit, but personally, I find the new selector sleek and practical. To be honest, the suspension is a bit softer than it should be. It’s clear that BMW is focusing more on daily comfort. On sharp turns, you can feel the car lean a little, and sometimes I worry it might roll over. In terms of handling, I might say the A4 was more fun at high speeds, but the downside is its interior design is very outdated—the screen is an eyesore! If they just upgraded the interior and systems a bit, it would be excellent in its class. On the other hand, the dealership and service so far have been excellent and comfortable. I’m not too worried about issues like oil or water leaks—after three years, I’ll be switching cars anyway, God willing, so it’s not a big deal. In the end, I chose a car I loved, I’m happy with it, and I have no regrets. And if anyone wants to share their experience, they’re more than welcome!

I want to buy a Phaeton with excellent condition and low mileage for personal use.

I’d like to ask Mazda 5 owners about the fuel consumption of this model. What’s the fuel economy like, especially in the city? I’m considering buying a second-hand one, so I’d love to get some insights. Thanks, everyone! 🌹

I've always wanted to switch to the 86 since it’s my third car after getting my license, but after trying it, I have some regrets. The interior, sound insulation, and loudspeakers of my previous German cars make me hesitate about the 86. Since I drive half on the highway and half in the city, I’d like to know everyone's honest daily driving experience. Let's set aside its excellent handling and looks, and just talk about daily driving comfort.

Any car enthusiasts here? I'm thinking about buying a Maserati. Is it better to go for a brand new one or a used one? Personally, I feel like a used one might be more suitable (excluding accident cars). Any advice? [Heart][Heart][Heart]

The Jeep 2500 has been gone for many years. Can't they just transfer the interior from the 212? Even if there are no designers, they could at least copy it, right? [Facepalm] I've always liked this car, but every time I'm about to change cars, the interior makes me reconsider.

The car looks pretty good, and I really like it. I'm not sure if there's a manual transmission available this time. I personally prefer it, as driving a manual gives a better feel.

The interior of this car looks exactly like my KX3.

Seeking advice on buying a car. Currently driving a Mercedes E-Class. My business is stable, earning 20,000 daily, working all year round. I’d like to ask about the comfort level of the Porsche Panamera Executive compared to the Mercedes E-Class. I'm only 35, and moving to a Mercedes S-Class feels like admitting I'm getting old. I value comfort a lot, and buying two cars seems too wasteful.

Can the 718 Boxster's screen be upgraded? I really like this car, but the interior does feel a bit outdated. There's even a CD player under the screen, which is kind of ridiculous. I'm thinking of upgrading to a better main screen a few months after buying it. Will this affect the insurance or future maintenance?

I’m someone who likes a car to be practical and comfortable, so I was looking for something with enough space. Honestly, the GLC surprised me! The rear seat space is excellent, and the trunk is more than sufficient without any hassle. Sure, it doesn’t have a spare tire, but personally, I don’t need one—especially since it’s a daily-use vehicle. When it comes to interior design, Mercedes is always ahead. I looked at cars like the S90 and Q5 before, but I felt the GLC suited my taste more—especially with the natural wood trim instead of piano black, which gets dirty and scratched easily. The only thing I didn’t like about the interior was the speakers—they look very plain and don’t have any branding, so they feel like something’s missing. Driving the car is comfortable and stable. The 260 model with around 200 horsepower is more than enough for my needs, and I didn’t see a reason to go for the 300 model. I also test-drove the C-Class, but I found it too stiff and not comfortable, especially over bumps. Fuel consumption is currently between 8 and 9 liters per 100 km in the city, and since the car is still in the break-in period, that seems reasonable to me for a 2.0 turbo engine. What really bothered me, though, was the downgrade in features due to the parts shortage—especially the Burmester sound system, which they removed from all the new trims! I was planning to get it, but it completely disappeared from the catalog. On top of that, if you want to install it later through the dealership, they ask for over 30,000! Honestly, I’m thinking of going to an aftermarket shop and getting a good sound system installed myself. I moved from an old BYD to the GLC, and I can say honestly: no car is perfect, but the one that fits your needs is the best car for you. Sometimes you should look for what’s most suitable, not necessarily the most luxurious. And when you find a car that truly gives you peace of mind, you feel completely satisfied with your decision.
