Ghiblis lease well and sound great. Not sure where all the flack is coming from. I certainly wouldn't buy one but I wouldn't fault anyone who did. Not everyone wants to drive a dime-a-dozen E-Class/5-Series.

I like the look of the Maserati's, but I see plenty of them.  Where I live they are just as common as seeing a S class Mercedes and a 7 series BMW.  IMO if I were going to by something from FCA that is considered "high-end" I'd get the new Alfa Romeo Giulia not a Maserati.

Leased it, that way was cheaper. But eventually ill buy it lol

how much if you don't mind me asking

 

[polosanddunks]

My friend just got a Ghibli. :\

*SIGH* 

A lot of unwarranted hate for the car but hopefully he leased it. The deals are too good to pass up.

If he financed it he's a fool.

 

[Mark Antony]

Leased or pre owned Ghibli is a good deal. Sure there are better cars at it's original price point, doesn't actually make it a bad car, plus it's a unique look in the sea of other cars in the class.

On my way to bimmerfest

how much if you don't mind me asking

Its my first car, banks werent fing with me except one. At first it was 450/monthly, brought them down to 415. The car was 29 something. Residual was .75 i believe

 

[bendover]

Damn. I bought a brand new 2016 Altima 3 months ago. Not much I can do now smh

I have an 07 Altima that's I've had for 10 years.
If you keep it up to date with the maintenance it's incredibly reliable.

Wow. I knew they held their value really well, but I had no idea it was this good.

Also, just based off of what you've shared, you're overpaying by significant margin. What was your MF?

 

[23kidd]

Damn. Like i said it was my first time buying a new car. I did research on how to handle this but some stuff i didnt get...like residual.


Sorry but whats mf?

 

[youngwolf]

Money Factor.

For all intents and purposes, it's your interest rate. It'll be in decimal form. 

 

[puglife]

Wranglers hold their value better than any car that I know of. Tried finding a used one a couple years ago and was dumbfounded at how much they were going for. Congrats on the pickup, it really looks great. Rode in them a couple times before and the ride is pretty rough.

Jeep in general. I've been trying to weigh new vs cpo. Doesn't seem like much difference.

 

[23kidd]

I mean im sure i didnt get the best deal out there, but when dealing i knew no matter what, they always have that leverage that wranglers just hold their value really well..so im happy with what i got.


Ive seen a 2012 jeep with 35k miles go from 24-25k.

The ride is rough..but i love it. Cant wait till it snows to test it out.

That's really the only thing that matters.

And just to be clear, I was by no means saying you got a bad deal. Could you have said a little more money monthly, sure. But like I said, your happiness is the only thing that matters.

Car is sick. Enjoy it, my man.

Tacomas and 4Runners tend to depreciate even less.

******* amazing

2011 with 73k

https://www.autoworldws.com/windowsticker/vehicle/870350/2011_CADILLAC_CTS

Yea this is a horrible deal for a car with 73k miles and 2 accidents. i wouldn't pay 25 for it. 

 

Updates on our track car build. Decided to make it a full track car. If yall remember when we got it last year it was completely stock with 40k miles. Got it down to 2,860lbs, added aero, and Hoosier slicks. It feels ridiculous now. Im interested to see what it can run at Sonoma now. Last time out before the aero/weight reduction/slicks it was running 1:55

engine mods? I know those N52's love when powers added to em

Nothing too crazy. Intake, header, exhaust, underdrive pullies, tune.

What makes it insane on the track is all of the money into the suspension, the big brakes, the aero, weight reduction, and slicks.

got to go around the track in an M3.

******* amazing

Nice. What M3 and what track?

 

[Nawzlew]

Just a stock F80 with the ceramic brakes I think. One of the BMW Driving Experience cars.

Track was at Fontana Speedway

 

[Rumble Gang]

How is the ride in the newer 4runners? The TRDs grew on me heavy and my girl wants an SUV for her next car 

. Probably will be in the market come fall

A mf'er rear ended me while my car was stopped at a red light. First accident so does anyone know how it works with repair costs? I called their insurance and got appointment set up for estimates Thursday. Do they give me a check for that amount or does the body shop repairs the damages then their insurance company pays them?

 

[dinanbmw]

You get an estimate from a repair shop and they send you a check minus your deductible.

 

[vietster]

My insurance company (State Farm) told me I won't have to pay deductible since the other person was at fault. Hopefully that's the case. Also, when it's time to trade in or sell the car, will the accident be included in its history?

 

[250caddy]

If you're going through insurance, the accident will be on it's history, yes.
