    MANY years ago, when I owned a shop, we had an older gentleman who would bring in his 80's model Mercedes 420 SEL for work....be it a brake job or simple fluid check and top. It was brown, with tan interior, had the V8 with auto...and OMG, to drive that thing! It rode like a cloud. It was quiet inside, powerful, the ULTIMATE CRUISER or long-distance commuter. He LOVED the car too...I offered to buy it from him, and his reply, 'son, this is my lifetime car...I'll have this for the rest of my life'. To any that might wonder, the central powertrain parts ARE expensive, but most of the electrical, ignition, chassis parts are VERY comparable to what you would pay for an older Camaro or Chevelle part...though there were a few exceptions where 'yep, you're paying for that name'. If I still had the shop now to build it, I'd simply hunt down a 420-SEL from the '80's', pull the powertrain, drop in a smooth American V-8 (my preference would be a 'large displacement' lugging motor...like a 383 or 440 Chrysler, or equivalent...possibly a 7.4 Hemi) with automatic transmission. As for the ride quality...I don't think anyone can come close to that Mercedes...period.

Aside from normal repairs on higher mileage cars like brakes, front end components (control arms, links, bearings) She still runs like new with no major issues.
    Great used cars to grab if you can find one owned by an older person (which isn't hard with Caddy)

    People often forget, that after you've bought a car, and dealt with everything at the DMV. There's still the insurance costs and maintenance/repairs. And I've learned from experience that unless you have a garage or second vehicle it's nearly impossible to keep a car nice as a daily driver.
    That's actually why I gave up and bought a Hyundai. It's actually very reliable, parts are cheap, it's great on gas and the insurance isn't too bad.
    Also... it's not hard at all to find a nice newer looking car like an Audi or something like that. But definitely, do your research first. Some of these cars are cheap for a reason. Like the engine doesn't get that many miles before it's finished. Or there's a major repair about to come up on it.
    And then if it checks out, bring a mechanic along with you to look at it. Test drive it. I recommend BMW if you're looking for that fast type of luxury car, but whatever you're looking at, just do a little research first. Because a bad ass looking car, for cheap, isn't hard to find. It's just not always the deal you want it to be.

Performance isn't everything if you're emptying your wallet and spending your paychecks on car replacement parts or paying for labor at a shop every month or two. The only cars that make you really look rich are Exotic cars, cause real car enthusiasts knows anyone that's making under 70 Grand a year will never afford a High end Lamborghini, Ferriari, Aston Martin and A McLean.

I would avoid the 2.5L models, unless like the point of the video, don't care about performance. The 2.5L pushing 202hp and 191tq. But you could possible get away with using regular fuel on the 2.5L model to save a few $$ at the pump. The 2.0T requires premium fuel so something to keep in mind with this model.

    Sure the ATS base came with a lame 2.5L 4-cylinder with 200hp. But nobody bought that one. Most people bought the 2.0L Turbo 4-cylinder that produced 275hp. That’s a pretty fun car and the handling is amazing. I bought a 2014 ATS4 with the 321hp 3.6L V6 and I love it. Very fun car to drive! MSRP was $52k and I got it for under $15k. So not super cheap but still a lot of car for the money. Funnest car I’ve ever owned!

    The Lexus IS 200t (2016-2017) are sooo good and very underrated. Absolutely incredible to drive. 250hp, great sounding turbo, great torque, nice grip, sporty, luxurious, 8 speed automatic, paddle shifters and manual mode, and it t u r n s heads. To this day I still have people compliment me on it. The price ranges from 20k-27k so it’s in line with the cayman but I have seen them as low as 15k with 40 something thousand miles. I promise that car is so great. Plus it’s a Lexus so the reliability is there 😂.

    One car that is overlooked is the Chrysler Crossfire 2004-2008...
    Coupe. Not the roadster. Mercedes bones and Karmann Body. Solid as a rock and performs excellent! Makes you look rich without being rich, and will increase in value over the years being as there were not many made. Another thing they DON'T say is that they were Imported from Germany to the US, and were priced almost as high as the similar SLK-320. But, you won't have the issues with the hydraulic fluid issues either. Something to consider. Reasonable to maintain and own. That's my input. If yu drove one, you'd understand why.

    I never thought I'd be in a Cadillac. Was hunting a 4 door replacement for my E46 M3 ZCP. Started looking at E39 M5. To get a mint one you are looking at $50-60k and even then you will still have the issues that a 20 year old car will have. The other newer 5 series didn't do it for me. Drove a 2017 CTS-V3, wanted it. A dealership screwed me on the deal we made after I took a 3.5 hour drive to pick it up. Same night another dealership looking for V3's for me told me about something called a VSport. Going for a Schmidty Tune and e85 plus a full suspension and brake build. Better than stock V3 power and the same luxury for 1/2 the price.

Somehow, with some nudging from my wife, we ended up in a NC Miata. That was fine, it was her car and she loved it. At the time we didn't find many great examples of Z4s, and that was in DFW.

    Seriously, the ATS is wayyyy too slept on! I have a 13 ats, turbo with a manual! About $1k in DIY bolt on parts parts and you're around 350hp at the crank. All that in a car that weighs just a bit more than a Civic type R, with RWD and a luxurious interior, for less than half the MSRP. Also, he's not kidding about the handling dynamics, this chassis was the best in its class and still holds up today. I got some BC racing coilovers and Michelin PS4S tires on it, and I keep up with cars way above my level around canyon roads (think mid level Porsches and recent M cars). If the potential in this car was more well known, I seriously think people would start cross shopping it with daily trackable cars like new STi's, Type R's and even later model 3 series.
