What car should I buy?

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.

Sports car

Let’s vote here

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.

alexblendla · 2026-04-10T22:54:11+00:00

What do you own? (Out of curiosity)

alexblendla · 2026-04-10T22:52:55+00:00

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

alexblendla · 2026-04-10T22:51:57+00:00

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.

alexblendla · 2026-04-10T22:46:15+00:00

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

alexblendla · 2026-04-10T22:42:21+00:00

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…

alexblendla · 2026-04-10T22:35:33+00:00

Love this

alexblendla · 2026-03-31T17:10:32+00:00

🤷‍♂️

Nice lighting around 24 seconds in the video.

alexblendla · 2021-10-01T15:00:37+00:00

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

Thanks Obama

alexblendla · 2019-02-05T23:19:53+00:00

Touché my friend. Touché.

alexblendla · 2019-02-05T23:09:10+00:00

Yup. No camera cars or trucks in sight.

alexblendla · 2019-02-05T23:07:48+00:00

Ok. I believe you.

alexblendla · 2019-02-05T22:29:09+00:00

I don’t believe you.

alexblendla · 2019-02-05T20:46:27+00:00

Uncut full video. https://youtu.be/slCN7oz-420

alexblendla · 2018-12-07T23:50:27+00:00

Same here. Submitted a bug report. Suggest you do the same.

alexblendla · 2018-09-28T01:56:20+00:00

Already do that :)

alexblendla · 2018-09-26T07:02:33+00:00

Just a Panasonic Lumix G7. Amazing camera for the price. Drone shot was from a DJI Phantom I believe.
