my broda,am a performance and turbo/horsepowers type of guy,i don try Japanese cars e dull me
D other day i was traveling with my guy's Lexus rx350 omo na so one cls 63 pass me with so much noise and power aswear d Lexus begin dy shake and lose traction i had to slow down,i have owned two different benz but i neva jam ds one
There and then i made up my mind to buy d car in January but i heard its scarce tho

Go and give testimony that you didnt make the mistake of racing that benz.... By now we would be singing your requiem in that your Toyota Lexus rx 350 ...

Dude you still don't get it, C63 isn't the ordinary benz ... It's a tuned benz by AM fùcking G ... There are 4 types of benz bro ... The Benz, the AMG tuned , The Brabus Tuned and the Maybach

Now how dare you think you can do a C63 racing with that RX 350.... dude that car is a machine .. I mean only the exhaust note would make you sustain your morning erêctions and if your woman sits in it, the AC would make her cum over and over

That car is just a performance car and it rare, for you to want that machine, it's either you are a greedy man or you understand what performance is ... Unfortunately people who own it don't sell it most times bro ... You really have to look for it

Bro, I guess you and ur babe never see ford F-150 raptor before... she'll become wet instantly cheesy

I will pick a Lexus LFA above any of these, and a base model price for the LFA starts from 152 million naira. wink

If I were you and I want complete luxury, I rather go for the Mercedes AMG ONE with a starting price of 1.2 billion naira wink

Let's be sincere with ourselves here. The problem the benz puts you through hen, you will wish you had a Lexus.

It cost more to maintain most BMWs
I stand to be corrected undecided

I once owned a BMW so I can tell you that the reason why it costs more money to maintain in Nigeria is cos there are few mechanics for the brand and also Nigerians avoid buying the car due to unavailability of the spare parts when compared to that of Benz

I was talking about popularity, the "Benz or nothing" people turned it to a performance context. The go about screaming Benz and if you ask them some questions and specs about the car , they don't know.

The way these guys hype this Benz of a thing ehn, it's truly a "craze". There's nothing special about a Benz , alot of regular and financially average peeps own and drive it around here. I read from page one to here someone said Benz is the status of wealth hahaha. So what will a person that own a Bugatti or rolls Royce now say? In Europe and the USA, Benz isn't that popular. Asides from exotic cars like Nissan gtr, Aston martin, Koenigsegg, Ferrari and those categories, Audi and BMW comes next. Infact you will see five thousand BMW and Audi before you sight one single Benz. Benz is good but the hype given to it in the Nigerian market is irritating.

No mind am, if e see N5m S class buy e go say e be benz owner too, when guys are dolling out N30m and above to buy something a bit recent and the big boys are hovering between N100m-N300m.
No Nigerian will waste 100-300M on a Benz model. That 300M will buy you a Lamborghini urus which is suitable for Nigerian roads and change will remain to club at quilox for the rest of your life. You go get 300M con dey buy Benz lol. You know nothing about cars.

As per the Benz fans you are you fit mention a model of your beloved Benz better than the urus

One was even trying to compare Ford raptor F-150 with Mercedes Benz X class...untill I directed him to Google... The so called X class doesn't even make top 10 spot of the best pickup truck....ford raptor and ranger made top 10...we have the likes of Nissan, Honda, Toyota, GMC, VC in the top 10. But because people dey shout Benz Benz up and down, he wan drag Ford raptor with Mercedes Benz X class... Although he later realized he f*uked up without consulting Google before yarning benz benz!

See ehn bros most of them have never even driven or own a Benz but you'll see them shouting Benz or nothing like they own the latest model. Remove brabus , g wagon, nothing dey Benz. There are a ton of brands out there that will give you a better performance for lesser price. Lexus is one of them. Those Benz fans if you ask them weytin be ordinary torque, they don't even know. Benz is a good ride no doubt but the hype in Nigeria is alarming. One of them was even saying Benz is a status of success and money lol so weytin you go now call person wey get Audi or BMW

Na just the mentality... na things wey dey reign their eyes they enter...even for Toyota trims, if you ask them wetin XLE,LE mean they no go know. Even V6,V8,V12... they no know but na to shout Benz like say na Rolls Royce
