. Good luck in maxing out your Carina E.

EgunMogaji:
Mine is 2016 Ducati Superbike 1299 Panigale S.

No turbo or supercharger, just undiluted raw and pure man and machine awesomeness.

Does anyone have spare $35,000 that I can have?

GAZZUZZ:
seriously?

How does the electric or manual steering have anything to do with stability?

EgunMogaji:
Trust me, if the feature wasn't in the car then there's a reason.

Don't forget that BMW is directly competing with Audi, Benz.

Spend sometime behing the wheel of an e36 and you'll be pleasantly surprised.

EgunMogaji:
BMWs have always been drivers cars, you know the man and machine thing.

Some of us that are into classic BMW like 1968 1602, 1970s 2002 and Bavaria actually appreciate not computerizing the driving experience away.

What picture would you like to have on http://NaijaDrives.Com

EgunMogaji:
Well, I do 150mph on my BMW but occasionally

my oga ! not saying it's impossible, just wary it's not well equipped in the safety department. Don't get me wrong, I'm a lover of driving dynamics which I love BMW for.

In other news... You had to use that monster truck as a caption on "OUR" site

Modified: I quote you back from my mentions. If I get a hold of this beauty, I'd do 290km/h

uboma:
You Sir do not have the facts either.
I do exceed the 120km/h daily on my way to work in my BMW 323i 2000 Touring.

yusufu16:
If you want comfort and safety go for BMW. BMW has the highest safety rating compared to other cars.

Say what! ...bruh! I will never dare a 120km/h in any BMW lesser than 2007 but I'll finish the speedometer on 2006 toyota carina E. BMW that took till 2007 before they could introduce electric steering on their base model. Pls know your Onions before coming on a forum like this or you will be drenched.

HMMMMM

MsDelilah:
4 kwa?! Biko which one am I coming to collect?

Timelezz:
Mercedes actually owns too many automobile patents it just wouldn't enforce.

Now the S class has gone into ultra VIP design for luxury jets with Lufthansa airline to recreate the feeling of the S class luxury on flight.

That suck-in ignition key Mercedes introduced in 1997 never ceases to wow me.

Timelezz:
No fights bro. Sorry if I came out wrongly.

Let's get down to facts, shall we?

1) number one is why I don't like doing online debate. Mercedes has always owned mayback since 1960 and has been part of the Benz subbrand in another segment.

Bentley and Rolls-Royce has since been bought over by BMW and VW. Matter of fact the Audi A8 is a Bentley form the acquisition. The S class pioneer automobile technology, safety features and ride quality none of these cars will dream of. Rolls and Bentley will only surpass some train of the S class (not all) in materials used on the interior. You're giving us half-truths and outdated story.

2) Please no body measures cars with number of units produced. The cheaper and crappier a car is, the more mass product it is intended. Those cars are meant for everyone. You give me an urge to be explicit.

Please the three crown is meant for a particular class of people not for everyone. The Toyotas and VW are classless except of course in Nigeria. Have heard of the Mercedes A class? That's a front wheel crappy car in collaboration with Renault meant for everybody.

Of all the standard Mercedes, the C class is the best seller and cheapest and real Mercedes freaks call it a Mercedes step child, that's not a true Mercedes in some regard. Get the drift?

3) Sacrilegious!! Tesla , an American company which is a small but mighty company is the world leader in hybrid technology. And Toyota had to partner with them.

Why do you keep mixing market leader in hybrid sales and leader in hybrid technology? Big difference.

All formula 1 cars have hybrid systems and Benz has won that tournament for 3 years unbroken occupying the 1st and 2nd positions.


Of course Japanese automobiles have difficulties producing V8s and V12s even when the world knows nothing about green emissions or bothered about it.

And who told you the world doesn't give a Bleep about V12s? Why you dey lie like this na?

All European big boys Mercedes, Ferraris, Lamborghini, Masarati, Porsche BMW, Audi are still doing V12 for the super class.

Japanese lack the technological means of course that's why it is outdated to you. Europe determines the future of cars not Asia.

MsDelilah:
Yes oooo!!!!! You're in Lagos?

MsDelilah:
Abeg when I can I come to test drive this baby!!!

Mutuwa:
wicked...

abeg drive safe.

are you in abuja?

Marshalrhino:
plz do

Timelezz:
Bro, na them sabi. I have never been a fan boy. I just fücking love evolving technology.

Mercedes is no 1 in comfort, safety and technology. Only the British Bentleys and Maclaren dey come close to the S class in comfort and interior.

Audi and BMW has bastard agility. They go round bends like kilode. At fücking high speed. Benz do that too but not at the level of BMW and Audi at the moment.
Average drivers won't know this.

Benz is also one of the freaking best in speed and acceleration. Especially at having engine stamina and muscle to accelerate when you're on top speed already, like 120 to 160.

Audi and BMW have made benz try to balance comfort and agility and Mercedes has improved on that greatly.

Japanese best solution is the Lexus. Nice ride quality but speed and control isn't up to European standards.

MsDelilah:
Exactly! It may be expensive at that moment, but the parts are so durable. In the long run, you'll find you've saved more. Unlike Japanese cars, which have cheaper parts, but aren't so durable.

I can't count how many times I've had transmission issues with my Honda. After changing the gear switch, the engine seat, the gear mounting or whatever, I'm going to spend another 50k to buy a new transmission. I don tire! Cheaper to maintain, my foot!

MsDelilah:
I love this! Well written!!! You just spoke wrote my mind.

Imagine the cars he's mentioning. He didn't even mention Rolls Royce. He's calling Datsun, Toyota...

Japanese Cars = Cars for the masses
Mercedes-Benz = Cars for Royalty

Finito!

Timelezz:
Abeg which car?

Timelezz:
1) Please don't put Mercedes in same sentence with Datsun, Honda and Nissan. Nice cars and engine alright. But hierarchy frowns at such grouping.

2)Mercedes produce the smoothest diesel engines whose combustion and drive is akin to a petrol engine.

3) What do you term an efficient engine?

4) Oh my lawd!!! Toyota and VW (the people's car) make cars for everyone with no character or muscle) front wheel drive train and boring cars. How the fück are you comparing biggest to best? And why do you think Toyota cleverly separate its luxury brand Lexus from the mass market crap they call Toyota?

And why did Audi became known as the luxury brand for VW? Abeg go do your research. Toyota na mass product woth no character for everyone.

You know nothing about cars. European cars are fundamentally different from Japanese cars in all segment.

After the Italians come the Germans and then the Brits.

Korea and Japan and USA are at the lower level.

Abeg, Mr, No car on earth drive's in comfort , what is now known as the magic carpet ride like a Mercedes S class.

No Japanese car can go round a bend like a BMW or Audi.

Mutuwa:
you just took this facts out of my mouth,with a fishing line of course

I drive a c240 with a high mileage but mhen,e de move as if na new.and guess how much the engine costs? 60k coz no one buys it,coz it rarely spoils save for negligence and other acts of GOD.

with the money of a brand new JAP,better do a toks Benz. and save the rest.

MsDelilah:
It's so rare. Check out the hilarious photo below.

There was a time my dad was driving the family to the East in his W124. At some point, my mum shouted... "hey, enyi, 140km!!! Ha na chu gi? (Are they chasing you?) Biko slow down!" My dad told her "I didn't even know I was speeding, I thought I was making 80km or so".

My point is, with Benz, when you're on top speed, you wouldn't feel it. That's how balanced it is. It's like you're cruising!!!

bejeria101:
My cousin drives a 2012 C-class and his wife an ML 350 AMG blue efficiency,kai when i drove them,benz na wa. The dream is the S550,i drove a 2008 and have not recovered yet. Team benz biko

UltraLeslie:
That's in the early 2000's. It has been discontinued long ago.

MsDelilah:
Lol. Biko, don't start o. It's a new year.

MsDelilah:
Danny, you know that feeling you men get when you see a well-endowed chic in a bikini? Well, that's the same feeling I get when I look at this engine of yours. I mean, DAMN!!!!
