I'm in the market for a new RWD coupe and narrowed down my choices to either a 2016 BMW 4 or MB C Coupe.
Which car would you prefer when taking into account:
> aging
> long term driving pleasure
Also I'm European so please don't recommend American cars

I'm shopping for a 2017 or 2018 car under 30k. I've done a shitload of research but still can't decide. What's the best mix between performance, comfort, styling and features?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Considering the lack of criteria you have I'm guessing you really aren't into cars and just want the all around best car for your money. The answer is a CPO Toyota Camry or CPO Lexus ES.
>>
I'd like some recommendations too
Im thinking something with 4 wheels
>>
>>17428676
Just get a civic for 3k or get a nicer used car with your 30k. Buying new is retarded.

Stance it anon.
One of the most unreliable cars ford ever built, but decent looking.
What is really so bad about ricing out a car? If it looks cool, what's wrong with that? You pick out clothes that you think look cool daily, you do things that you think will make people like you mostly throughout the day, why can't anyone make their car look nice, even if it isn't all that powerful? Maybe I don't want to put thousands and thousands into power. maybe I just want my car to looks sweet.

If I put deodorant on a piece of poo and put it in a nice box does that make it anything more than a piece of shit?

They don't look cool at all though. They look childish and spastic.

yes, it makes it a well presented, nice smelling piece of poo.

For normieboxes, yes.
For enthusiasts, there's still motorcycles.

If self-driving cars actually stop crashing and become a reality, the only upshot I can see is a huge focus put on improved interiors and features. Eventually they'll become mobile living rooms and probably look like your pic only bigger
On the downside, everything else

Autonomous Sports Sedans (A.S.S.) will be like a fuckin rollercoaster. Fast as you can baby around every corner with no fear of crashing into normies

When I try to ignite my car, it starts making clicking sounds so I take it as the battery is dead. The car is relatively new however. Do I need to replace the battery or just charge it? Can I charge it while it's connected to the car?

Surrender your license and accept that you're going to prison for 5+ years because you live in Australia, and speeding more than 5km/h over the outrageously low limit there is a federal offence.

Why are there no affordable small-displacement V8's?

because there aren't many in the first place so the novelty makes them valuable. My best guess desu

Every automaker has a 2.0L I4, doesn't that make the process of building a 4.0L V8 simpler? I'd love a Honda K40.

What are the worst and/or stupidest features to ever make it to mass production and receive wide distribution? Stuff like ergonomics, options, mechanical components, gimmicks, safety hazards, exterior/interior cosmetic trim, poor quality control, etc, etc.
Also, whole cars if they are based off of some ill conceived premise, were created for a market that didn't exist, were an attempt to fix something that wasn't broken (ie, trying to reinvent the wheel), were short sighted in conception, were a product of rushed development, or were born out of bad decision making on the part of the manufacturer.
I'd have to go with the Edsel. Ford didn't need a 5th brand, especially one that competed against their already established brands.

Edsel wanted a name for himself. And it was the most researched car ever created at the time.

Ummm, Edsel was kinda, you know, dead at the time.

What can I do other than shitty handbrake turns??
Hardly any twisties near me, all the roads are straight and go for miles.
Not fast enough to be fun in a straight line.
Found some empty ass car parks that I've been playing in at night, only handbrake turns so far,
What else can I try? I'm bored as shit and regret buying such a boring POS.

Hypermile. That's it. Otherwise get a better car

Can't get another car. Stuck with this POS for at least a few more years till it's got equity in it and I can get rid of it in some bullshit trade in

Lmao
There's nothing fun you can do with an automatic FWD.
And if your car is the pic you posted, then you deserve to regret your decision. Why would you even think of buying a fucking Ford Focus?

What's better: ceramic coating or wax?

ceramic
>difficult to apply
>easy to fuck up and cause serious damage
>locks in imperfections for a while
>maintains super hard finish for a LONG time
wax
>easy to apply, at least most of them are
>hard to fuck up
>imperfections you missed can be worked on after the wax is gone
>gotta apply it often
personally i'd get the car in tip top shape on my own then take it to a professional shop for a ceramic coating

i have a ceramic coating on my redsport and it does make it look really nice and cleaning the exterior is literally wash off with soapy water and dry
