Already has an IS want something different perhaps? Or those are all $60K cars and the IS350 F-Sport is $50K?

eh park it in the garage and rub it with a diaper

agreed... if 0-60 is more important than everything else, then one of the turbo cars as they are easy to mod.. but 350 is perfectly fine for me and it handles great plus it is one class above everything else.

S4 is old, C350 know nothing about yet (maybe above 335i if it is better drive) and CLA is just class below pimped out.

If you want something just for fun get a GTR or Vette.

1. 2014 GS350 F-Sport
2. 2014 BMW335i
3. 2014 CLA 45 AMG,
4. 2015 AUDI S4
5. 2014 C350

For maintenance and reliability, I would go GS350 first. For performance, fast and fun, I would go S4 then 335i. S4 interior and exterior is FAR ahead of the 335i

Exactly the order I would have put them in

SteVTEC

The Audi or Benz first (and it's going to be a C400 with a turbocharged direct-injected V-6, and not an Inline-6 yet as far as I know.

The BMW 335i second tier.

CLA45 or GS350 F-sport third choices.

SteVTEC

Agreed. Just got a call from my BMW CA today about what we're going to do with my E93 335i since it's within 6 months of lease turn-in now. She mentioned the 4-series and the convertible would be out by then. Just not interested. Why pay MORE money for a car that drives much poorer? Sad. So we're either going to flip my E93 to a CPO, or turn it in and I'll go back to driving the old 2002 Highlander and maybe keep my eyes peeled on the used market for a little something or other (buddy of mine just picked up an E60 M5 which is beautiful!!! )

Thanks bro! I was attracted by the 45 AMG at first too, but it seems like a small car or is it just me? and I would like to know why you choose 45 over 335i?

I'm a big fan of the GS350 F sport too. But the thing is that I want a fast car! that would satisfy me without doing much of engine mods or even none, on the freeways and roads, sometimes tight corners like mountain run and so. I know this car has the best looking of all those cars. Do you think is this car really gonna satisfy me?

Thanks guys! I did watched a review on the S4 it looks amazing for driver but for passengers there seems like not much of a leg room in the back seats, it's even smaller than our ISs, when I see it it make me think twice. Because I wanted me and my passenger sits pretty in a fast car lol. so is it worth it to be a good car for family and my self in long term?

Thanks bro! I really appreciate your opinions and for the material of the CLA, it sounded bad as it is. I owned an IS and the material inside is really good and not cheap looking so next car purchase I would like to get something even better. So CLA would less likely to be my next purchase, from it's engine and the material inside. As of GS the look is good and yea there arnt much of performance-wise parts for it. Just as a optional car if all of those dont work out.

Thanks bro! I wonder have you try out the new 335i yet? The GS350 F sport is definitely a great car but it just kinda slow at 0-60 for 306 HP car. And I feel like the 335i has a better potential in the future to be faster since it has twin turbo. Which would be a good car for daily driver and go fast in some roads even tight corners. I want a great sport car that makes me smile and passengers sits comfortable on daily usage.
Would look forward for the S4 too! can't wait for it's makeover.

Thanks a lot bro for taking times on this! I would def look into the S4 in person to see if the rear seats is really that small in the review I watched yesterday. I was gonna plan on getting that, because as you said it's AWD, has quat exhaust, nice finish inside out and so. But just from the video makes me think twice. I owned an IS and the rear seats just got complains from my family and my girl's family just because of the shortness of the rear. Do you think is that video reliable?
LOL yea insurance nowadays with those car just insane... I would def save up money for that too! Thanks.

OK, as of fun. I would like to get a great sport car that looks good forever, just like my IS ( ), fast enough to satisfy me in tight cornering and accelerating, reliable would be nice too but since I got the best on reliability company (Lexus) already, I won't be surprising when it has a little more problems than my IS. Sits comfortable for both driver and passenger for daily driving and fun at mountain runs, which I would like to be going with that new car. And I could have options to mod it even better and faster in the future when I have mod bug growing in the future, not crazing modding like engine swapping those kind of thing. I just want some upgrades and still have good amount of "OEM" looks if possible. Lastly I would be using this car for really long time. I know I have my IS and I shouldn't be worry about daily driving but it won't be as available as it used to be to drive since my family would sometime need it. Thanks bro!!

Thanks bro! Do you think S4 has a good amount of aftermarket parts then others? I think I would have to get rid of CLA in this list, I totally agree with your statement on it's being too one-dimensional.

HAHA! that's a must on Manual! My IS is auto so~ lol
It's really hard decision for me between these two. One has pretty short rear leg room and the other needs more exterior work like exhaust. Thanks btw! apprecitated man!

Because I already owned an IS and I want something different~ The gauge cluster of the LFA is really attracted me when it first came out! But then performance wise it losed 335i and even the Cadillac CVT or CTV I forgot.

LOL straight forward and I do agree on electrical issues. But I just want something different since life is too short to get a boring car. Not saying GS350 is boring, I like it alot. Just not as sport car as I think. If none of them work out I would get GS350 F sport for sure!

True! But I think I don't want a new car with bunch of problems lol, a little bit more problem than my IS is the best. Is S4 is the type? Both fun and reliable?

Yea, that's why!! hehe

LOL

I do want that but it's two door..... If my girl, which gonna be my wife, would accept two door car for me. I would straight up goes to 435i or S5 with no thoughts.

HAHA! mbn! so little maintenance!

Are you saying the 335i or the C350? I bolded the words. Yea stock turbo cars are easy to mods to make it faster. That's why I pick 335i and C350 and S4. Just can't decide which will be good for my own time fun driving on cornering and daily driving with family that they will feel comfortable. I'm also looking forward to see the S4 makeover too!

I do wish I'm that Baller to get those cars... lol too bad I'm not!

I appreciate the list bro! GS350 is nicer than every cars on the list, but it's the slowest of all of them. If 335i don't work on me, and C350. I would go with GS350 F sport. Do you think is there anyone that modified the GS350 engine that is not a crazy mod and can beat cars on the road like G37 and so? Thanks!

Yea bro! as of stock version S4 really is nice, just the freaking leg room is making me think twice and twice! Have you try it before? Is the leg room in the back that small? or is it just the review guy is too tall lol. I got enough complains on my IS's rear seats and I want something a little bigger than that. let me post a video of the Audi S4 rear seats.



HERE is the Audi S4 rear seats of think twice design. Jump to 5:20 for the short cut.

Thank bro! I would def consider it! haha!

Hmm, by the sound of the C400 it sounds really nice. I'm looking forward to the Detroit auto show this month. Hopefully it would have some good stuffs to beat with these other cars. BUT! I'm really not liking the rear tho... I would the sport package would make it better!

Really? Is BMW that worthless to buy as a car to drive? Or is it just a car that is fun to drive but need works done on the way with it? Damn nice! congrats! I wonder how did he made up his mind to get a used fast car? is it CPO? or is it from a local car seller? I don't really wanna concern about those type of used car because who know how they been abused? Is it worth the money? or it depends on the condition? And second question what is so turned down on the performance by making the 335i electrical steering? Thanks!!
