All im gonna say is. if you can barely afford to do anything with a honda or arent making much money you shouldn't buy any used german car. if you aren't mechanically inclined you shouldn't own a used german car. just because the car depreciates doesn't mean the parts do plus more rarity of parts and most auto stores don't carry most german car parts
Really depends what German car you get. It's expensive as hell to own AMG, RS or M car but if you buy a 4 pot diesel it's not bad at all. I currently own 2013 C220 CDI wagon with 6 speed manual and maintenance costs is 250€-500€ per year.
true they don't, but the stigma is called stigma for a reason. you can buy a used engine under 100k for under a grand. bloe it put a new 1 in. let's be real and go to basics. if you arent basically inclined in any way shape or form, then you shouldnt work on anything mechanical or electrical
My dad and me used to be very big fans of BMW, in fact may dad was driving a e92 335i but last year he bought a Mercedes GLC 43 and we are in love. Dad always says "Every dollar is worth it". Now my mum drives the BMW.
As cool as the E55 is, the Mercedes from that era which I actually want to buy is the CL600/AMG55. Up to now, it's one of the most effortlessly attractive Mercs of all time (even if the V12 would bring me to tears)
Alex, bro, man, my guy, why do you do what you do with the hands and the moves and the *ahh* yeah. You’re just funny af. Spazzing all thru the video lol
You hit the nail on the head friend. I had a w204 C63 and didn't learn my lesson. Now I have a cls63 on Rohanas, KWs, and a tune. It's a constant battle between maintenance costs and buying more mods, but totally worth it on the smiles per dollar scale. Cheers

I went from an e90 325i to a CLS55 AMG and i'll never go back ever, I love my v8 supercharged AMG puts a huge smile on my face constantly and the performance is godly!
100k km die 13k, luxury interior, 500hp and the AMG badge isn't bad. With the E55 you really just have to get rid of the air suspension and fix the complicated braking system. The engine is very reliable... For a 10+ year old super sedan.
S63 AMG. For well optioned ones, many were $170k+ new. Aside from the old ones, new ones depreciate like hell too. Now you can find a 2017 one (only 2 years old) for $85-$95k (depending on condition and options) with fairly low miles (roughly 15k). Hell, there are even “new” 2017 S63’s sitting at $50k under MSRP with 0 miles. Take any 911 for example. Any with the same MSRP and mileage will trade for 10’s of thousands more.
I've had my 04 CLK 500 for just over 9 years now and still love it like day 1. Although not an AMG, still just over 300hp but a good savings on some of the parts. None of my friends understand why i fight with my tail lights randomly going out, the 3 hours i spent changing a cps, the mystery of the ever running seat motor or the amount of money i had to spend on used bi-xenon headlights when mine melted.........................until they get in the passenger seat of my 16 yr old car and withing 10 seconds they are all like holy shit and looking for a grab handle.

Alexander Chohan from what I’ve heard they just have bad maintenance needs. And they’re impractical for maintenance check ups or repairs. Idk don’t quote me it’s just what I’ve heard I’m only 7
@Alexander Chohan AMGs are fantastic cars. The reason why they depreciate like bricks is because even though Merc tech is state of the art it isn't 100% reliable. So when they go wrong you'll be spending big bucks on small things and even more on large things. Not to mention they're hard to work on. I love AMGs. I just don't wanna own one.
Currently selling my liver to afford a break job on my s63. Regret buying this car, but I’d be willing to sell my other liver for a down payment on any other Amg any day!
This video is dope keep this up Alex. I’ve had my w204 C63 for 2years after changing headbolts no issues at all. One thing I’ll say is if you’re going to buy a used W204 C63 besides headbolts there’s the ESL failure THAT WILL OCCUR. Stealership wants 1800 till this day to change it but if you want you can change the motor in the ESL yourself for 25 dollars
Fitment Industries Ik it’s not the Best But can you guys do Eclipse or at least a Eclipse GSX the 1st and 2nd gens need love and the 4th gen GT is not that bad 😂
I told this story on another video, but I owned a 2011 c63 with the 6.2. Great car, amazing car actually, but I heard horror stories about maintenance when I purchased. So I bought like 4000$ aftermarket warranty (I paid 30gs for the car), and I owned the car for about 3 years before I sold it and traded up for my m4 comp. Not once, NOT ONCE, did it go into the shop in the 3 years I owned, and I drove her hard. Aggressive up/downshifts, revving the motor out to 7k rpm, slides, burnouts you name it. I TRIED to break that car but that motor proved to bulletproof. I'm honestly wondering to myself how that car didn't throw a code once in those abusive 3 years with everything I've heard about that motor lol. When I went to sell the car, I got as much of the warranty money back as I could, but even without paying out once on the policy I only reclaimed about 2900 bucks from the original 4000. So essentially I payed a little over 1000 dollars for "piece of mind." Moral of the story: Understand and assume the risk when buying a used Benz, but also be skeptical about what issues you hear that comes with a used Benz from others, both here online, and in real life. Particularly, steer away from the advice of those that have never lived with one, theres a reason those people talk the cars up like they do but never actually commit to their dream. And that reason is "maintenance"
That's a cool story about how the initials AMG came about but I still wish subaru would've reconsidered their initialed car... who dreams of having an sti one day!!
