I don't own any of these 3 brands: Benz, BMW & Audi. Am not a fan of any, but i do like and respect them, and wouldn't mind to own one of the 3 (will come to that later).

There could be other German cars, but these 3 are on the top list.

They are not just cars, but rides. They are not just rides, but MACHINES!

Though i dont know much about the 3, but if i was to compare Benz with BMW (Beemer), i would say Benz got the luxurious & looks, while BMW got the performance. But I could be wrong since i dont own or used any, though have driven one of the brands twice. So lets hear from those that know the 3 better or those have owned any of them, owned the 3 of them or currently own the 3 or one of the 3.

Please, we are here to discuss only these 3 German brands. So lets not derail the topic.

Floor is open.

Ikenna.

I ve been a fan of benz..been on it for years for their speed, strenght, comfort etc.. but I d like to try out de bmw. that's one car I don't know.. folks who use them talk highly of them sha.. lets have ur take.

Have owned many models of all three brands.

Here is a general rule, stock for stock, a BMW will have better performance and the Mercedes will have better luxury. Audis will be a blend of both, especially with the models that have Quatros. This is my own personal opinion.

Of course when you start getting into BMW M models and Mercedes AMG models then all bets are off.

I will let you know though that I'm not generally a fan of modern cars.

BMW- high performance
Mercedes- Luxury
Audi- combination of both

haven't owned many of both cars, i own two BMWs (2000 323ci and 1993 320i) and have driven the '96 328i and the legendary w124 200 (family owned), i also owned a '96 c220 (sold), plus a little drive-experience of the 2001 C240...in my opinion, the BMW has better all-round driving dynamics. The performance surpasses the merc. Its more enjoyable swinging the tail...its a sports car by default, unlike the merc...i haven't driven the audi so i cant say about it. Like somorin said, i'm not a fan of modern cars...i hardly drive my e46, i prefer the 320...it is rawwwwwwww!

Just got my Benz (C220)I will inform you guys of the driving experience much later.

My Beemer soon! 6th to comment. No fight....

[size=16pt]BAVARIA MOTOR WORKS[/size]!...the ultimate driving machine.

Three very sexy car brands.

I agree - There are advantages and disadvantages of each. Especially when we start to get into specific models. I own a 2011 535xi. Which, IMO, looks better than the benz in the same category. It's debatable compared to the audi. Performance wise, I'll give the edge to the Audi.

All Hail The Boss Mercedes Benz All The Way!

Mr 2 much Money...time still dey, u fit continue the type of car wey dey ur garage!

I drove the 02/03 model of BMW 316 (3 series) extensively. Its road handling is supereb for a 1.6 liter engin. And u wonder why 3 series is BMW best selling model? Generally, I think BMW has a better driving dynamics than Benz. If BMW is Chelsea Benz is Arsnal! The X6? I get double orga.sms in one each time i stare at it. it's the end! God made man man made BMW X6!

Nairaland!most of us have not driven any of the 3 brands yet we comment. Again,we are good at ssupportng the last speaker. Wheen u hear of German Machne,d first thing that comes to mind is mercedes benz. I've driven all 3 brands but nt necessarily mine. I onw a MB 240 Kompressor. Are u talking abt speed,stability durability,turbo charge,respect,class,general performance?even b4 I bought this recent kompressor,I had driven a mercedes benz 190 with a 6 cylinder engine,factory fitted ac,leather seat n padded. A 2008 Toyota Camry couldn't complete with me along the Asaba Benin dual carriage way not to talk of the Kompressor. Have u ever wondered why most government officials around the word both d ones we see in foreign movies uses mercedes benz instead of the BMW n others. BM no doubt is yet another machine.

Power and balance belongs to audi
Style and flexibility belongs to benz
Action belongs to bmw

I have used the benz model and currently using an audi
Lemme ask
Why are these cars very noisy?

Have you ever wondered why James Bond uses BMW & Aston instead of Benz?Have you ever wondered why Jason Stathan always drives a BMW or an Audi?
Benz is stately and always appeal to the older generation....the S class wasn't made for the youth even the sportier glk dint even make the mark while BMW attracts the upwardly mobile & the young exec.
Reason the 3 series is the best selling bmw brand and the Benz S class is the best selling luxury brand.

Hmmmm,...sorry. Can't answer your question.........................












..........................Remind me when I get my driving licence.

Benz= Show that you get more than enough Dos(Money)
BMW= You don't care what you care with ur money
Audi= I am Young Millionaire

Mr. Badbelle, if you don't own any or have anything to comment, plz shar.rap and let people who own enlighten us.
I current own two lexus brands and am looking to sale one and buy a BMW 320i, so love that ride. So this is thread is of serious interest to me.

All 3cars are fuel consuming giants in order of bmw,benz and audi
-for elegance,klass,comfort and turnheads use a benz
-for taxiz and drops use an audi

Al I kno say na Benz beta pass. Buh d tin de chop fuel.

Al Benz products r durable nd wiv precision.
