      @Kit Kefner Even buy, I doubt they are just forking out $100,000 cold hard cash to pay the car fully off. mostly through a lease or some sort of finance.

      Jack Liu That’s the entire point. Financing a $100,000 car isn’t cheap to begin with either. You’d actually pay more financing it rather than paying it off in cash at the dealership.

      @@mybro727 I work at a dealership in sales. Theres something called leasing, where you are only renting a portion of the vehicle. You're only renting 30 to 50% (depending on the length of the lease) so no, you're not paying more. And even if you're rich, no one really forks out 100k+ one-time to cash buy out the vehicle. They can lease under their business for lots of tax incentives. They will use that 100k to invest or put it something else. All german luxury depreciates like a stock market crash. Anyone (rich or not) with a common sense wouldn't buy the vehicle straight up, since you're losing so much money.

While watching reviews, or other UA-cam clips, I am normally multitasking with work, but not yours, the laptop is placed down, and I give them full attention. Keep up the great work.

    Your reactions and expressions while driving, literally matched mine while watching! Absolutely drool worthy car. IMO, this car would be perfect in white because of that black contrasting sunroof and red brake calipers to add a little pizazz for the exterior. The way that straight-6 sounds and pulls toward redline (a shame it’s “only” 6500 RPM) actually reminds me of a Porsche GT3. Amazing transmission too. Maybe I’m crazy for saying that, but it does, and honestly that is the highest praise I can give being a Porsche fanboy. Amazing review Sofyan! Keep these coming!

Come on Germans! Over 100 years of building cars and you haven't figured out how to engineer and manufacture a quality dependable reliable and durable vehicle on a consistent basis! It's not that hard! Ask Lexus! Only been around since 1989 a have completely EARNED their reputation for all of the above attributes! Not denying the beauty and fun factor of your vehicles but in order to be truly successful there has to be a measure of consistency when it comes to reliability in your brand to justify the premium prices you demand.

They don't just plonk drive train components together and hope for the best. They test for years in the lab and the real world in conditions on either extreme.

They can't be held accountable for their cars being driven by clueless idiot owners.

    MCT is NOT a dual clutch. It is a multi clutch. Multi being the clutch packs in a normal automatic. However, instead of a torque converter, it uses a wet start up clutch pack. So it works the same as a normal automatic but without the pumping losses of a torque converter allowing for quicker shifts yet smooth driving and creep around town.

    So daily trivia, does anyone know who was the first brand to have an engine witbout drive belts and accessory pulleys? Infiniti was running this tech in 2011 on the m35h and added it to the q50 when they introduced the hybrid model for 2014. It has been a really reliable system so far, it's nice to see the Germans putting a new spin on it adding turbos and superchargers to the mix

    Lovely car! Too bad MB took a step backwards on their new E class design. I think the E63 (v8) is better than the E53 (i6).

    Inline 6’s don’t like to rev high rpm they have a very long crankshaft so it’s spinning a lot of excess weight. 6500 rpm is extremely high rpm for a straight 6, you can build it to rev higher but you lose a lot of low end torque which is why engine manufacturers use the I6 to begin with.

    • @IKhanNot
      @IKhanNot 4 роки тому +1

      Yeah I was excited when I heard MB was bringing back an I6 motor but they really went crazy with the over-engineering of it. Given the fact that it's both a mild hybrid along with TT forced induction the power output still seems tame and the fuel economy isn't any better than the competitors offering standard gas TT V6 motor. This just seems like tons of extra features, future problems with non of the benefits it's supposed to provide.

    Is anyone else confused by the electric starter and alternator? What other kind is there? Having little electric motors hooked up to electric motors seems a bit odd, I’ll have to look into it. Sharp car, but like most Benz’s how far will it make it from the dealer without issue?
