Which one would you choose???

Deutsch · 11-11-2006, 12:04 AM

As some of you know I'm still trying to figure out which car to start saving up for. I'm looking to buy a "newer" car after I graduate school (2 yrs) and work for for a while (2-3 yrs). I'm extremely goal oriented so I like to set my goals early

. Anyway I'm deciding between a brand new Mini, CPO E92/E90, brand new VW GTI, 2er, & CPO B8 A4/A5. I know in the end it's ultimately up to me, but perhaps you guys can provoke my thinking with your input. Thanks!

I'm going to go for a stock 335i Deutsch. More performance than all of the other cars, its looks will be a classic as well. If you can aim that high, than go for it

We have the same avatar, haha

The pic was too sick to pass up for an avatar man!!!

335's are going to hold their premiums for sometime, on top of that I suspect that the majority of 335's will have been driven quite hard, more wear and tear for me to deal w/ the after effects of. I think a 328 would be more practical and realistic, it's quick enough and handles just as great.

The GTI slurps up little fuel when driven normally and its a novelty with that DSG gearbox. To top it off, you wouldn't want a big car as your first... a GTI would be perfect. Ample space for 4, unlike the cramped Mini.

I would go for E92... By far the best on that list.

BTW, when the Clio is replaced, my next car will be an E92 probably in five years from now. At that time the Volvo will be seven years old, and i will have the money to buy (at last) something better than a big volvo. Just imagine a greek 35 years old guy with a E92. I will be the new Cassanova

I would go for the A4/A5. You know how strong Audi is now, and they just get better. I believe the next A4/A5 will show that even more.

2er ... When you'll see it you'll know why.

From those probably the E92, if not that probably the Mini.

In my opinion the GTI is the perfect every day car. The consumption is good, it is fast enough and the handling is completely mind-blowing. I've never driven the other cars, so I voted for the Volkswagen!

Car choices will be dramatically different at that time, but nontheless. Id go with the Mini S. I've driven one, and would highly recommend it.
