    i love how they are saying the gen coupe is actually competing with benz and bmw coupes...have they been inside a gen coupe before?

    I hate how the front end looks without the Xenon Light Package.

    Calm down there sparky...The Genesis Coupe and BMW 3-series are the only 2 coupes that are of subcompact size, rear-wheel drive, offered with a 4-cylinder turbo and a 6-cylinder option and can be had with automatic transmissions. That eliminates the AWD A5, G35/Q50, etc...

    This car really needs the optional xenons

    From the side from a distance looks like the 2008-2012 Honda Accord coupe (even the same shade of red paint).

    Steve, have you driven the new Honda Accord coupe V6?

    Depreciation: One issue with BMWs is that they depreciate a lot. For example, a three-year old 3-Series BMW is priced around $30,000, while the 6-year old 3-Series averages around $17,000. This means that a three-year old 3-Series will cost you nearly $4,000 per year in lost value alone. Reliable average or below average.

    my co-worker bought a challenger r/t two months ago and the paint has started peeling off the roof. Because he didnt get the "inside/outside protection package" they refuse to fix it

    Big move for MB to offer sport equipment on a low-end 250. This car just a few years ago came standard with hub caps and almost zero options. Another CAFE car is what I am thinking....more 4cyl sales means less fines for building V8's and AMG's.

  • @bmwmsport11
    @bmwmsport11 11 лет назад +1

    I wish they could put a Kompressor badge on it to indicate the turbocharger. I love the older MBs especially from 1995-2008.

    • @VilleVallaton76
      @VilleVallaton76 3 года назад

      They didn't put Kompressor badge on those because they turbocharced, not supercharged.

  • @cassiocm
    @cassiocm 11 лет назад

    You are right on the money Steve. A turbo 2.0 L and a starting price of about 36-40K would do wonders here. As is this is a good car to get in about two years when someone returns from a lease deal. Or, get the new Bimmer with the 2.0L and 240HP. Beautiful car though.

    Is this a good 1st car...and what does it traditionally look like with 100k miles on it?

  • @76carmel
    @76carmel 11 лет назад

    I thought, "What about Audi A5 or Cadillac CTS Coupe?" Just like you've told @teamsalvation -- the powertrains are significantly different. You can't compare V6 and/or AWD coupes to this C-Class Coupe with the turbo I-4. For 2014, BMW replaces the 3-Series Coupe with the 4-Series, but correct me if I'm wrong. (I think the 4-Series is a baby 6-Series, and it's not a bad thing).

    @FistOfGarry 11 лет назад +1

    Why do all euro cars in the US have these odd orange reflectors on the side. I know it has something to do with DOT regulation, but I don't see their usefulness.

  • @Lanier3000
    @Lanier3000 11 лет назад

    Some people in the comments are way too analytical in comparisons.
    Either way, I would go with something different. Something about this car... Not entirely sure how I feel about it. Feels like at this price point, it should include a lot of things... Navigation included.
    Then again, I've never been super fond of Mercedes-Benz anyway. Still, nice-looking car though.

    "Pits the coupe up against the Hyundai Genisis and BMW 3-Series"...Really, Hyundai Genisis? Hyundai must have be paying the bills...I would have picked the A5 from Audi over the Genisis. Heck, even the Infiniti G35, though out dated and with a 6cyl. When I think / see a Genisis goupe, I think, "racer boy, a-la Integra Type-R" - this Merc, though low in power and lacking "standard" features for the price, is no "racer boy" car. Well, props to Hyundai. They've been doing everything to get plugged.
