gilto Member 218 Member For: 16y 8m 28d Gender: Male Posted 02/04/08 07:44 AM Share Posted 02/04/08 07:44 AM White is the best looking colour I reckon.I don't really understand people paying big money for Beamers and Mercs either...at the end of the day they are just glorified granges and G220's IMO. I know they are 100 times better but still.....On the other hand I can understand paying for a Porsche, Ferrari etc....then you are paying for all the technology and exclusivity etc.....The new C55 merc looks the goods though for the coin!

Grudgee Every Mod's Favourite Member Member 1,496 Member For: 16y 24d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 07/04/08 04:54 AM Share Posted 07/04/08 04:54 AM When buying a new car there are 2 factors I think ultimately sway the decision of the average buyer. #1 the budget restrictions#2 the statusReliability, efficiency, power, comfort, gadgets, warranty etc are all a factor, but secondary to the abovementioned two points. Budget is obvious, but when I refer to status, I'm talking about it in a general sense - ie. how it makes you feel when you're in it. Ford could develop a technically superior car to Mercedes and you'd still get people forking out $200k for the latest Merc because of the perceived exclusivity and prestige. It may not be a luxurious, reliable, efficient, powerful or comfortable, but people feel good rolling around in a car that they think people admire. Everyone rolls in social groups and the vast majority of people want to keep up with the Jones' - whether they like to admit it or not. That's why I bought a Turbo Territory - cause I look f*cking cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
