Didn't you beat up on my AMG for free?

We get free stuff from the private lounge?!?!?!?

All I've gotten are those Private Lounge window stickers and a ton of magazines...

How are you liking the 63 since the Escalade debacle?

The posting thing is only once every two years. Once you win you can't win another one for two years. Unless they changed that rule.

I give you until June.1st before you cave. That is assuming that the weather holds.

Haha. I really do like the M3 though. Since getting wife's new car we have been driving that mostly and that makes me miss the M3 so I think that's a good sign.

Unless I get a smoking deal and don't lose anything on the M3 (which would never happen) I am keeping it for sure.

You are redeemed.

Absolutely love it!

I've put 55,000km on it since October 2015. No issues, an absolute dream to drive, and SOOOOOOO much fun!

Things a beast in winter, and it's a beast in summer.

It's sooo nice not having to deal with stupid vehicle bullshit... I just enjoy it now like I should!


EDIT: This totally isn't needed, but on the note of enjoying it, pic from last Sunday!

That's a gorgeous ride Zhar. I've always thought the CLS was one of the best looking cars in the line up, it's such a timeless design IMO. Hopefully they don't mess that up with the replacement.

The CLS is such a beast. A cool take on the e platform for sure

Agree, I am not a sedan fan at all, but the CLS the curves of a coupe without the ugly of some of the 4 doors.

Awesome car, makes me depressed when I see all you guys buying sweet rides and I know all my money is tied up in my kids.

Congrats

Real baller status is having the cars and kids, it's easy as a dink with a good paying job to get into a ridiculous car in comparison.

Rage et al still have top tier baller status because of it, I'm just a kid who spends too much money on cars.

I'll admit this too...

I work 24/7 (especially since the economy went to shit)... Only reason why I spend my money on cars is because it's one of the only things left I enjoy in this world (quit smoking, almost stopped drinking, toned down the women, no family, no kids)....

I love the CLS as well, but it looks like the new CLS will not have an AMG option. That market will be catered to by the AMG GT 4 door.

Especially with the NDP taking away all our child credits. I think I'm going to go down to a single year round car next year. The days of summer/winter car might be over soon. So yea, losing my status for sure.

I drive a 7 year old truck with a rusted front bumper. Wife needs to go back to work. I've been a wanna be baller for a long time.

Normally, I would have already ordered a replacement for the wagon... might be keep this one for a while. FWP.

I dream of the DINK days. SI2K sucks...

Might as well enjoy for a couple years before the kids come into the equation. I like to consider myself as a budget baller. True ballers don't have to fuckin think twice before buying whatever the hell they want.

Having young kids is a double hit. You have to take care of the costs of course, which are substantial. But perhaps worse, you have to be much more risk averse. As a single guy, you could always liquidate and live on a couch with a friend. When you have kids, you have to tie up additional capital making sure you have runway for emergencies and contingencies.

If I didn't have three little kids, I often wonder what my lifestyle would look like...

^ hookers, blow and 100 octane is what I would imagine..
