Mercedes C-Class, Audi A4, BMW 3 series vs. INFINITI Q60

Thinking about getting the INFINITI bc these are all in similar price ranges, but INFINITI is more reliable and less maintenance than the European cars.

Am I missing anything? I like the designs of all

You should definitely check out the Genesis G70. I’m a BMW and Porsche fanboy, but I drove a G70 back-to-back with a new 3 series and found the Genesis to be the better driver’s car. Not to mention they have bulletproof reliability and better deals typically.

Woah, “friend!” Those are fighting words!!

The Infiniti is garbage. Get the real deal.

If reliability is a problem, Lexus IS350 or Gensis G70

Did you mean Q50? Believe the Q60 is the coupe version. I’d say the Infiniti is probably more luxury oriented similar to the C-Class. The BMW would have slightly better driving dynamics. You may also want to check out the Genesis G70 if you are really looking at maintenance costs.

Agree with the G70. Probably the best all-rounder in its class.

You need to do more research. Genesis g70 is the most expensive. Infiniti isn’t a drivers car and is based on a platform dating to 2003 (it isn’t reliable either). I’d lease a Giulia if you’re into cars. The BMW 3 (unlike prior generations) and merc are just nicer Toyota Camrys.

What? No. g70 is not cheap at all, probably most expensive. I drove the g20 before getting the Alfa. Used to own an e46.

A4. The all wheel drive, comfortable seating, good boot space make it a better car for any situation

Drove it, it’s a comfortable all rounder for non enthusiasts.

The infiniti q50/60 3.0t is amazingly quick too. They are solid and quiet

Nope, they are not quick at all.

M340 and C43 AMG absolutely smoke that outdated Nissan garbage any day of the week.

Depends on which engine configuration you are looking at .. For the base 4 cylinder the Mercedes c300 would be great although you would want the smaller tires for more comfort.. If it’s all sport and enthusiasm that you are looking for, nothing beats the new bmw m340i.. superb handling, very quick and has the limited slip differential which will help you be pretty aggressive in the corners, but it’s gonna cost 60k+ to get a decently loaded model. Loaners would help bring the monthly down.

Is it irresponsible to spend $17k on a car when making $71k?
Current expenses are around $2500 per month including $900 towards retirement savings, so I’m left with around $1500 for going out to bars, eating out, and all stuff. New car would be ~$300 car payment and $150-200 in insurance monthly. Love cars and want something fun to drive around in so seems worth it to me, but don’t want to put myself in a bad place financially. Thank you all in advance, can supply more info if needed
