yah that and how i am on AZ during work hours?

srika

oonowindoo

yah i am going to cross shop that and the S63.

i'd get the S63 personally. But who cares about what i want.

but it's gotta be WHITE!!

srika

both are fine choices!

mrmako

What about this? Bentley Flying Spur

oonowindoo

That was my first choice until i found out about the price

Yumcha

Cool. So, white RLX with upgraded uber-tires FTW. Chairman Mao can then use the savings on other things...like more purses or shoes for his First Lady.


Win-win. Tell him to trust you: The RLX with upgraded tires will smoke even the Poopdick McFartington. And probably has better gas mileage.

Yumcha

Personally, if I'm the chairman (and Gramps-ttribe would echo my sentiments), I'd SERIOUSLY consider the M6 Gran Coupe and save his money.

That car is uber-tits. Sure, the Rapide is hot and all...but, I'd be pretty damn giggling in the M6 GC.

Yumcha

Like seriously, hubba-hubba. Show your Chairman Mao this pic, ooyeswindyoo...

oonowindoo

Are you gonna hire me if i lose my Job?

oonowindoo

as much as i love M6GC, it just aint gonna cut it.

I took him to test drive the F10 M5 before he got the Panamera. It was more like a Meh to him It just does not have the presence.

and BMW's interior is just not good enough.

ttribe

I thought of recommending that, but the fact that boss-man isn't sufficiently impressed by the 7 led me to skip the suggestion.

Yumcha

Dafuq? Does Chairman Mao need a good slap...?



Either that or all of us are freaking COMPLACENT.

But, IMO...the M5, while tits, is not the same as the M6 GC. Ask him to check it out. Seriously.

In terms of interior from the drivers seat, the M6GC is a bit nicer than the M5. Maybe he'll like it. From a driving perspective, I slightly preferred the M5 over the M6GC. The M5 felt more nimble and a better use of interior space. Back seat on the GC is a bit tighter.

Side note, a few months ago, I got the opportunity to drive the M5, M6GC, M6 vert, and a few other models on the track and autocross course. Out of all the cars the M5 was my favorite. Although, I have to admit the 760 hauls some serious ass. I did not expect a sedan that large to handle as well as it did.


Another car to consider is the CLS63 but that has a love it or hate it styling. I also think it's due for a refresh this year.

oonowindoo

not expensive enough

Yumcha

FINE. Dinan M6 GC.

These parts: Products - Dinan, Leader in BMW Performance Parts and Upgrades


THEN, get some Vorsteiner custom parts.


So, becomes this:




...except, in -white.

oonowindoo

ok So now we have the following 3 candidates. Anymore suggestions? I have a feeling that the Aston might be too small for him and his kids.

Yumcha

Does Chairman Deng know about the Bentley Mulsanne? I like that a bit more than the Continental...

Yumcha

Pics and etc. of Mulsanne: https://acurazine.com/forums/automot...%2A%2A-740471/

oonowindoo

He does not have a chauffeur for those kinda cars. and he is not JayZ

charliemike

Audi A8 W12 or S8 is a really nice option.

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

RS6 Avant. He has money to blow, therefore, he can make it happen.

srika

you can't own a Mulsanne and drive it yourself? did I miss a memo?

a Phantom, I can see that, but Mulsanne is like run of the mill Bentley.

oonowindoo

isn't a Mulsanne loaded cost close to $400k? Of course you can DD any car including Phantom. i see Chinese moms at local Chinese supermarket all the time with their white Phantom and crooked parking.

srika

my bad. yeah it starts around 300k.

you want the Flying Spur which starts at 200k. but I think we already talked about this. damn, there's not much to choose from for you! this is some serious #firstworldproblems

Slpr04UA6

^or really, really, picky!



I would say "you can't have your cake and eat it too", but in this persons case, maybe? Lol!



Wish I had this problem!

srika

Don't forget the Aston is a 4-seater, too. If he has kids, that's it.

Maybe a bit of a curveball:



It's got the bling, road manners, and practicality. But if he likes particularly fast cars this might not please him. X5M or GL AMG could be options if he'd consider an SUV.

Out of those 3 choices I'd go with the tried and true S-Class.

Also hurry up and get a promotion so you can buy us all these cars.

Wow, that's cleaner than any example around here. But I could get a 6MT Accord for that kind of money.

I'll shoot them and e-mail and see what they say.

If I get one, this will be my new user name.

srika

oh oops. I dunno why I thought the Rapide might seat 3 in the back.

srika

maybe he could get it custom modified

oonowindoo

I need more than just Promotion(s) to be anywhere close to these cars. I am happy enough just to get to drive it once in a while.

He has an X5 at home that his wife barely drives. he told me before that he does want a SUV. He still want to maintain some form of single life through cars without being too obvious, i guess.

he had a last gen S550 for a little while between the SL63 and the Porsche. One day he came to me and said Can you test drive my car and let me know if it is slow? because i don't feel any power.

I drove it, it felt freaking faster than most of the cars i had driven in my life at the time. 1 week later, he got the Porsche.

Penske MB about 3 miles away from my company has a black S63 in stock fully loaded $160k. I am going to go check it out this week.

oonowindoo

He is not Jayz and he is certainly not Kobe Bryant.

srika

if the S63 is not nice enough, there is also this........

Yumcha

Will you work for $34.50?

Yumcha

Forget AMG, get the S-Class a la Brabus.

Yumcha

But, otherwise, I'd drop the idea of 4-door...and go coupe. 911 GT2 pretty much all the way.

Otherwise, if Chairman Chu is willing to spend more, Aston Martin Vanquish/DB9 or SLS AMG...lotsa good choices for a grand tourer.

srika

holy shit that S65 looks hottttttt

rossv1

Ferrari FF?

Majofo

oonowindoo

the recommendations are getting unrealistic ;D

S65 has more power but it seems S63 is actually faster based on the 0-60#s, which from what i heard is the most accurate measurement of a car's performance.
