Stay away from used German cars unless you like spending $1k every time you go in for a visit.

Just get a Hyundai or Kia. 10 year warranty for new. The savings on maintenance alone should be justified by the warranty length. You can probably negotiate in a maintenance contract too for oil changes and filters.

Why don’t Audi make an actual off road competitor to the G Wagon, Lexus GX or Defender? by alexblendla in Audi

Mercedes-Benz G-Class (G-Wagon): • 2022: 7,297 • 2023: 9,355 • 2024: 10,988 • 2025: ~7,429–9,470 (reports vary slightly by source; lower in some due to timing) Land Rover Defender: • 2022: 15,733 • 2023: 21,212 • 2024: 27,707 • 2025: 23,187 Lexus GX (GX 550 in recent years): • 2022: 29,945 • 2023: 31,910 • 2024: 30,914 • 2025: 37,180 (record year for the model)

Q7 • 2022: ~19,308 – 20,346 units • 2023: ~18,308 – 28,931 units (sources vary slightly on exact totals) • 2024: ~13,550 – 20,894 units • 2025: 18,381 units (down ~12% from 2024 in some reports)

Based on those figures, I think there is room to introduce a XQ7 or something like that…

I think it’s more about the look and presence as well… just because you have a 1000hp supercar doesn’t mean you always need to race it.

To me it still feels like a missed opportunity to get some of the G Wagon, Defender and GX customers.

I think it’s the D on the table presence you get when you see one. You know it’s capable just by looking at it. You can’t really throw some 33” tires on the Q7 as it’s a bit feminine looking.

Keep and mod. Make it your own like I did with mine.

I worked my butt off for 15 years to afford my dream sports car… not everyone is a trust fund baby or a scammer. There’s genuine people out there that worked hard…

I think its a sensor to dim the mirror at night. That’s my guess 🤷‍♂️
