BMW 135IS vs Mercedes c300

hau_nguyen91 · 07-13-2013, 09:08 PM

Hi guys

I currently owned a mercedes c300 and I ordered a bmw 135is two weeks ago.

I am only 22 years old and my mom and my girlfriend is really upset with me about getting a new car which is my 3rd one

My first was 2004 infiniti g35 then 2011 mercedes c300 sports

I got really bored of the Benz and realized it wasn't my style .

Do you guys think I should keep the mercedes ??

Please give me feedbacks

Might as well keep then all. Sounds like it's only a drop in the bucket for your parents.

Grammar ever?

22 and you do what for a living?

tuco44 · 07-13-2013, 10:03 PM

A troll thread obviously.

TeinBMW · 07-13-2013, 11:06 PM

Wow and your 22??? Must be living the life right now.

Kouper · 07-13-2013, 11:27 PM

Why does it matter what anyone here thinks about whether you should keep your Mercedes? Is that really how you would decide, based on what people who you don't know think? You should be old enough to figure this out on your own.... Good luck with this difficult decision.

The Mercedes c300 is a nice daily driver, but doesn't compare to the BMW 135i and 135is. The 2 cars are in 2 completely different leagues. The c300 offers numb steering feel, an "ok" engine / power-plant and creature comfort. The 135i and 135is offer heavy road feedback, an engine that delivers power in any rpm and a stiff ride. I should know, i too drive a 2011 Mercedes C300 sport sedan.

mb135is · 07-14-2013, 07:53 AM

I don't even know where to start. Did you drive the 135i or 135is? That might be a good starting point for your decision.

If this is for real I can tell you straight up that the C300 is junk compared to the 135 if you are looking for performance. I actually bought a C350, which of course is "better" than the C300, and returned it and bought the 135 instead. Totally different cars.

et410114 · 07-14-2013, 09:50 PM

i always wonder why there r so many young people like u can afford those expensive cars? i got my first Bimmer when i am 30 !
but if i were u, i will change to 135 and stop changing so fast !

Work hard and finance with a decent downpayment, that's how I got my 135i when I was 21 and now purchasing a house while I am 22.

+1. Same exact situation I'm in.

hau_nguyen91 · 07-15-2013, 11:29 AM

Even though I am only 22 but I work super hard to get what I want.

I don't depend on my parents or anybody..

I currently work as a Master Planner in a MFG production company..

Gray_Panther · 07-15-2013, 11:41 AM

Yeah I am 24 with my 1 year old 128i which is close to being paid off and with my student loans paid off. I'll be humble and say I was fortunate to land my current job, but I also save money and work hard too!

These threads always deteriorate into this kind of discussion. To the OP - why put in the sentence bolded above? It adds nothing to the discussion; and serves to start rants on both sides (young vs older). I can only assume the OP is trolling for a thread war.

A waste of time and bandwidth.
