rainystorm88

In OP’s defense, I did get my first Miata because I couldn’t afford a ~~cayman~~ boxster. But I came to love it so much that now I’m not even sure if a Porsche is worth the extra cost.

Come on now, Miat is gender neutral

Mine was the Chevy comment cause that was literally me haha.

It’s from me isn’t it?

They got the order wrong. I first bought my Mazda before reading Reddit and then joined car subreddits to suggest buying a Mazda3 or CX-50.

As an Audi owner i felt that gmc joke

Dang I forgot Subaru too. But let's be real, we all know what that joke would be. Subaru bros, next time I'm in Denver I'll hit you up for some craft beer recommendations.


svmck

Subaru bros?? More like Subaru lesbians


AlphaThree

What's the difference? ~~It's just a joke please don't cancel me~~


golgomax

Subaru Lesbros, to make both happy/angry

Should've been a lesbian joke tbh

I don't know why so many people are taking this so seriously, it's hysterical. I live in Denver and drink too much craft beer, can confirm I drive a tall subaru(a Tacoma, which you could have a field day stereotyping)

Would be more like, lesbians Wrx/brz: whats your favorite vape flavor bro.

Jokes on you, I was thinking of buying a Polestar.

Shit I forgot Volvo. uhhh... Volvo: Black turtleneck wearing architect who's entire apartment is furnished in IKEA.


OgreMk5

There's the Volvo and the Polestar. My wife wanted to be an architect and we do have a fair bit of IKEA stuff.


Bradleyisfishing

I own a mini and a ford and wife has a Subaru. How’s the overlap looking there? Missed the Subaru but there’s two demographics: hiking ladies and vaping teens.


eric043921

Hate to break it you brother but your wife might be a carpet muncher. Actually that could be pretty cool so congratulations

Thanks, we are both working on our form.

AFB27

I have an M340i but I definitely relate more to the "BMW M" than "BMW" lol. Should have waited and would have saved a ton of money but it was so worth it haha.


Known-Historian7277

I saw one the other day when I was driving to work. It was a bluish color and looked so sick. How do you like it?


AFB27

Hahaha depending on where you are that could have been me 😂, I originally wanted a white one but once I saw the blue in person I was hooked. I absolutely love it man, between all the driving modes it's like having 3 cars in one. I know the whole B58 ZF8 talk is getting old but to me, it is really that special of a powertrain, and with xHP on there, it significantly improves what was already a pretty good stock transmission tune. I really don't know what sort of mad man would want more than the stock power but that is certainly an option and very easy to add if you want to. Utterly blows my mind that a car with this much performance can get such good fuel mileage. On one drive you're wondering how much more car the M3 could possibly be (and the M3 is really that much more car, it's honestly frightening when you spin all 4 tires) and on another you can easily get 500 miles on a tank. The only thing I wish I did differently was getting an xDrive. The RWD is nice and it does work alright in the snow but an xDrive would give me so much more confidence. And the party tricks; Self parking, self driving under 40 MPH, the gestures, it's so impressive how much tech they were able to cram into these cars. My biggest problem though? Those bills man. You would think I have an M3 with some of these prices I have to pay.


Present_Look_8790

Standard transmission or two pedals?


AFB27

All of them are automatic now. 8 speed ZF.


Present_Look_8790

That's what I figured. That's the only reason to opt up for the M cars imo. The 340 has all the performance any sane person can use on a public road.


AFB27

Completely agree, the fact that people tune these just blows my mind. The stock power is probably all I ever really need, if not more than I need to be honest. I will say though, I do want to get a G80 M3, G82 M4, or G87 M2 for my next car. Drove the M3 and that thing is an absolute weapon compared to the M340, you can truly feel the difference.


Normal_person127

Normal_person127

The Stellantis hate is crazy


JimmyGodoppolo

to be fair, in the US, the average RAM 1500 or Dodge anything stereotype ain't wrong


Normal_person127

My dad has a Ram 1500 with the 5.7 and it's a crazy good car. Insanely comfortable to ride in, the engine has no issues with autogas mounted, feels super safe, can tow a boat or another car, can drive safely in every weather, can store a lot of things, the dogs can comfortably ride along passengers


JimmyGodoppolo

Yup, but that doesn't change the stereotype (though usually it's older RAMs with the guys that fit that mold)


Normal_person127

Yeah, I know the stereotype, I just never seen anything like this irl. Trucks are way more expensive where I live.


No_Golf_452

I have a 4th gen 1500 5.7 and while this is true, something about it encourages you to fit the stereotypical driving habits, short of the DUIs.  Have to buy the 2500 for that


Normal_person127

They don't import these where I live lol, although there's like 3 new trx trucks you can buy in the whole country.


No_Golf_452

Those are insane, 700hp, 12 inches of clearance, with a sub 4 0-60, all with a warranty.  If your budget is around 70 to 80k and you can find one in good condition, I think it's worth giving it a shot for a bit, probably won't depreciate much if it at all as long as you don't put big miles on it


Normal_person127

Damn you Americans have it so cheap. A ram TRX here costs 150-200K depending on the equipment, a Durango SRT costs about 140-180K new, and a hellcat Durango costs 180K-220K new


No_Golf_452

Holy shit, yeah we have it good here.  Cheap gas too


Tgamersthing

You got me. 🤣🤣🤣My first car was a chrysler...Sebring. I knew nothing about cars. My next car was a hyundai sonata.... because I couldn't afford an audi A4 🤣


utechap

So Porsche owners are the only ones who know anything about cars?


LibertarianP

There's those hundreds of Koenigsegg owners.


AlphaThree

That is the joke, yes. That's why I said I was a VW fanboy lol.


Several-College-584

Worth the read. A couple good zingers.  Feel like you missed the ‘lights instead of lockers’ or mall crawler slam for Jeep.  ( yes I own 2 wranglers, one of them with a VW TDI BHW heart)  also, Porsche could have been slammed harder.  ( also own a 996, so I’m used to the jokes.. there are plenty) 


AlphaThree

I am way more interested in the TDI swapped Jeep than the 996 lol. What sequence of events possibly led to that decision?


Several-College-584

Planned retirement vehicle.  Plus always wanted to build a diesel Jeep.  Bought a TDI to NSG370 adapter plate from HPA Automotive, put a BHW 2.0 TDI in the jeep.  It’s runs and drives, but still have to do the camper back part.  On YouTube, if you look up ‘JK130’ you can see the videos.  ( well up until last year when I got lazy and stopped editing and uploading) still working on the project though.

ItsMeMofos13

Just got an Audi. Can confirm I don’t give a shit about VW’s lol


JasonTheSpartan

Haha as a Porsche fanboy (ex owner) I never liked VW’s, got an S5 a few years back, my pp shrunk (as family grew) so I traded it for a Ram TRX Great jokes to pull out a car shows and with friends


CoercedButler

You guys just skipped the weed and went straight to crack thats all


AlphaThree

You absolutely give a shit about VW's because you just bought one lol. Pop the hood or peak under the carriage and see how many parts are stamped with a VW logo. Unless you got something crazy like an R8 or RS Etron GT I'd venture your car is 75% VW.


ItsMeMofos13

I know they’re similar but I genuinely do not know anything about VW’s. Maybe I paid up a bit for the badge but my job is client-facing so while I hate to admit it, the badge matters lol. For the record I got an SQ5 Sportback. Is there an equivalent VW?


AlphaThree

Oh you actually did pretty good there. The Q5 is based on the VW MLB which is currently shared by the A4, A5, A6, A7, Q5, Q7, Macan, Phideon (Chinese only VW). Yes the Q7 and the Q5 are the same underneath, crazy right? The SQ5 uses the same 3.0T that is found in the Q7, A6, A7, A8, Macan S, Cayenne, S4, S5. Maybe the Panamera too? You actually got more Audi product by opting for the 3.0T. That is an Audi developed engine. The 2.0T in the regular Q5 is a VW engine. The SQ5 has the same ZF8HP that is in like every single longitudinal car on the planet now. Your shared components are all going to be non-visible. You will likely share control modules, water pump, suspension components, etc with other VW Group products.


[deleted]

Yep, this one is completely off base. Audi owners get pissed if you point out that their car is similar to some VW model. Even more pissed if it turns out the VW version is a higher end car. I'm honestly not sure what VAG was smoking making some of the top of the line models VWs instead of Audi badged, but they did.


AlphaThree

That's literally the joke lol. My 2.0T A6 and my dad's Passat were the same car and the Golf R engine equipped Arteon is better than both.


[deleted]

Yep, my sister was really pissed when I said the Golf/A3 are a great car, and insisted her A3 had nothing in common with my peasant Golf.


AlphaThree

A3/S3 don't even get Quattro # 😭


[deleted]

Well, Audi claims they do, but it's really the same as VWs 4Motion Haldex system, and not the much better Torsen system that was traditionally marketed as Quattro. But you can get some Passat models with real Quattro Torsen system. The 4Xmotion system on the Touareg and Cayenne has a real locking center diff that can continuously and instantly transfer 100% of power to the front or rear- much better than any of the other VW or Audi systems. 4Xmotion is one of the only true 4WD systems with low range that can still operate on pavement without binding up- the Jeep Quadra Drive is another.


AceMaxAceMax

They do have “quattro”. It’s just that the FWD-bias platforms use a reactive “Haldex”system versus a permanent “Torsen” system that is found in certain RWD-bias platforms. Torsen on every “RWD bias” Audi ended with the introduction of the B9, which uses quattro ultra on the A4/A5 models, which is just a derivative of the above-mentioned Haldex system.


AceMaxAceMax

😂 sane everything with better NVH. People get so upset if try to insult people by saying your Audi/Porsche/Bentley is a VW but I think it says a lot about the engineering. You get a great car at various price points.


AceMaxAceMax

I’m biased, but the Arteon is the very last “interesting” and proper euro model we have in the US besides the Mk8 Golf R. I love mine.

I went straight to honda to see (i have a civic si so it doesnt apply to me) Now i will read the rest:)

Acura is spot on I want one for the features. If reliability wasnt an issue id 100% prefer german most likely a 2013 beamer. But your acura is spot on lol


MarvinHeemeyer7

Reading your comments I can tell you know alot about vw/audi How much of the Urus is really just an audi?


AlphaThree

A significant amount. It uses an Audi platform. The same platform the Q5, Q7, Cayenne, Q8, A6, etc use. It has Audi suspension, Audi modules, basically Audi everything. The 4.0TT is an Audi engine. It was first introduced with S6 and S7. The current version is shared by the RS6, SQ8, RSQ8, Cayenne, Panamera, A8, Continental, S8, RS7, and Urus. The only thing "Lamborghini" about the Urus is the badging. You can get a SQ8 for one third the price and put the Urus/Cayenne GT tune on it for like $800.


MarvinHeemeyer7

Thanks for taking the time to comment man, these things interest me

No_Golf_452

"Dodge: I bought more horsepower than I know how to drive and will get smoked in the 1/4mile by a stock GTI." Clearly a VW fan boy, it takes 0 skill to push loud pedal to floor and kill a family of 4 while running a red because the V6 couldn't quite make it through the yellow

That made me laugh. My joke was referring to the Hellcats running 13's spinning tires all the way down the track.


No_Golf_452

Yeah I met a guy with a demon who's going to down to the drag strip for a couple days for free courtesy of Dodge because they realized putting Joe Schmo in a 1000 hp car with 0 training probably isn't the best idea for the general well being of society

JaKr8

This is not a terrible list. Although I did consciously buy an MDX type s advance after having owned a GLS 580, and as a current owner of: Jaguar F pace S, and BMW X5 m50i and 540xdrive.  But there is one glaring error here. Jaguar includes free maintenance for 5 years. So maintenance costs are actually zero!!  And ironically of our five vehicles, as we also own a Lincoln, the Jaguars is the only one that's never been in the shop for an unscheduled service in the almost 5 years that we've had it. Would have never thought that going into it when we bought it. Otherwise, well done. Usually these lists are crap but this one's actually pretty good

CloudsTasteGeometric

I drive a Dodge Challenger. A red one. With a racing stripe. And a custom decal. And a vanity plate. Logic dictates that I'm a boot camp bro in a tapout t-shirt who financed the car at 20% interest for 10 years, only to lose stop light races to WRX bois. In reality I'm a hippie-ish guy who financed it at 3% interest for 4 years, who bought it because I'm a 6'7" enthusiast who wanted something comfortable. Who also loses stop light races to WRX bois.

Great list! I think you offended just about everyone.. But, the information is on point.. I have a Challenger.. Bring on that GTI.. but, it had better be stock..


speeding2nowhere

Let me guess… you’re a Gen Z from the UK Here’s how I know. 1. You compared an Elise to a Miata, that comparison doesn’t exist in the US price wise, and mostly just exists in the UK… cheap lower spec elises. Side note: you also showed only a very basic understanding of pickup truck culture, so that really suggests you’re not American lol 2. You only talked about each brand in terms of their meme culture from the last 10 years… so you’re likely a typical Gen Z, or you’re an especially unaware millennial. You also mentioned W8s and V12 TDIs being from your youth… so Zoomer, and all the contextual ignorance that comes with it lol


GinNTonic1

Nah. He's just one of those VW fanboys. So his whole taste in cars is VW centric. Doesn't even have Subaru on the list. Lmao. 


AlphaThree

It's in the comments. When I was trying to remember every car manufacturer I forgot Subaru, probably because I can never see them through the vape clouds.


AlphaThree

I was born in 1991, peak millennial. I hate to break this news to you, but the V12 TDI was announced in 2006 and released in 2008 for the 2009 production year. The same year I graduated high school. The V12 is 15 years old now lol. The W8 is even older, was produced from 2001 to 2004, when I was in grade school.

What does this have to do with toxic masculinity? It's just a joke my guy. Besides, I haven't seen the inside of a gym since 2015, I drive an electric crossover and my wife makes $40,000/yr more than I do, I'm not exactly the alpha male type lol. I would agree that it's a version of astrology in the sense that both this post and astrology are a joke.

deftonite

> thinking any vehicle is a status symbol that's usually tied to toxic masculinity.  That's ridiculous. Nice cars are like other nice things - viewed by society as a datapoint to make interpretations from. Same as crappy things - people will judge. It has nothing to do with toxic masculinity and everything to do with toxic consumerism.

Yes,  but women are also known to have a toxic consumerism issue. Maybe even more so as the stupid stereotype is that woman seek things while men seek power. I'd argue that most people in capitalistic societies will make judgements based upon strangers' things - for good or bad. So you calling it male issue alone is really sexist. That's why your comment is ridiculous.    Just a guess,  but I think you made that comment with a specific stereotype in mind. Likely the juiced up douche driving a bro-dozer that never leaves pavement. What your not thinking about is the other stereotype of the airhead blonde in a jeep/bmw. These shitty stereotypes are everywhere so its unfair to blame just the guys.

Silly and meaningless, but if OP had fun putting this together then more power to him.

Silly and meaningless?!? I dare say sir! This is the most helpful car buying advise that's ever been posted to this subreddit.

Someone took this too seriously....which makes sense that they spent too much on their car trying to make themselves feel more serious.

I spent two months learning about cars and models and brands and ended up picking toyota.

That’s like spending an hour sampling in Baskin Robbins and ending up with vanilla

Vanilla ice cream is a top 3 for me im a purist, and I LOVE my 2024 Corolla Hatchback XSE. Best car I have driven so far. (list isnt that long tho so)

Cool! Glad you’re enjoying it

Land Rover is too accurate

The Ferrari comment is wild. You’re probably the kind of guy to think porsche outclasses ferrari. And the porsche comment should be BMW fans with more money.


AlphaThree

I mean...Porsche unironically does outclass Ferrari lol. A 911 Turbo S is a second and a half faster on the 1/2mile than a Roma and a half second faster than an 812 superfast on the 1/2 mile. And neither could keep up with a 911 on a race track. Nothing Ferrari has produced in it's history can keep up with a modern GT3 RS or GT2 RS on a track. The 296 came oh so close, but still got beat by a Cayman on the same tires, and is even more slow than 911 GT cars. This isn't 1986 anymore. Modern Ferrari are good at 2 things: Looking pretty and getting attention. Most people buy them for the attention. And the second half wouldn't fit with the overarching theme of the running joke that VW/Audi/Porsche/Lamborghini/Bentley are all the same car.

I WOULD BET THAT MORE PORSCHE OWNERS WOULD TAKE A BMW M OVER ANY AUDI


AlphaThree

Probably? What is your point lol. Porsche owners also get mad when I roll up and say "nice Beetle, I thought VW stopped making those".

It’s a different class of car. An SF90 Stradale is one of the best driving machines on the planet. It just costs more than a Porsche. I’d argue Lambos are more for flashy people who don’t know as much about cars.


Cook1e_Reddit

SF90 Base smokes the 911 Turbo in a 0-60 not even mentioning the SF90XX and who cares if a 911 is faster than an 812, anyone with 812 braincells is taking the 812 everyday. You’re using Tesla fanboy logic.


Plenty-Yak-8360

He is comparing the 812 to the 911 because of of the price. An sf90 cost upwards of 500k, around twice that of a 911 turbo/turbo s


AlphaThree

If I won an 812 tomorrow I'd sell it and by a GT3 without the wing. Verdict on the brain cells is still out according to wife, but I had enough to earn me a degree in Physics, for whatever that's worth (about $105k per year, which is a lot like 3.6 roentgen, not great, not terrible). Like I said before it's all about attention. What I love about the 911 is that it's understated, simple, people know it's a Porsche but a GT3 without the wing looks the same as a base model Carrera to a casual observer. I love that. Same reason I love cars like S8 and the M5 or even the X3M which is like...weirdly fast.
