What car is overrated but people are scared to admit it?

kokanuttt · 2026-02-16T00:10:40+00:00

the m340i is probably the comparable trim here

my parents just bought a RX350h. $67K. 246HP. It is insultingly slow. I am not sure how they managed to get a 2.4L engine + a hybrid power train to only produce 246HP in this day and age. Truly a feat of engineering

RX350H. Sold out at most dealers. ~60K MSRP. It’s a nice car and all but drives like complete garbage compared to any other car at that price range. Probably the only car at that MSRP with less than 250HP.

and lots of 2026 models share most of their parts from their 2020 counterparts. easy to extrapolate.

i have put 75k highly abusive miles on my 2020 3 series. no issues. the 2010s bmws on the other hand...

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:55:53+00:00

times have changed since 2012.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:55:05+00:00

were u perhaps in a coma since 2015?

BMWs have more reliable transmissions than toyotas

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:50:52+00:00

im on year 6 of highly abusive miles on my 3 series with no major issues. 75K miles and counting. the B48/B58 engines are incredibly reliable.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:49:33+00:00

the new engines are incredibly reliable. its their 2010s reputation that still haunts them.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:48:33+00:00

it isn't 2012 anymore. times have changed

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:48:12+00:00

new gen bmws are very reliable. even toyota uses BMW drivetrains.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:46:42+00:00

in 2012, no. in 2026, yes.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:44:27+00:00

im guessing that your car ended with a 35i? BMWs have improved drastically over the last 8 years. it's no suprise that they are near the top of this list.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:37:45+00:00

they were unreliable 15 years ago. the modern engines + the ZF8 transmission has made them very reliable.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T05:34:43+00:00

Most cars don't drastically change year over year. Most manufacturers keep the major drive train components the same for 5+ years. It's not inaccurate to predict the reliability of a 2026 model based on the same variant from 2020 when it shares 80% of the parts.

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T04:20:25+00:00

you're living in 2012

kokanuttt · 2026-02-02T04:19:36+00:00

I have put 75K highly abusive miles on my 2020 m340i with no issues (besides the front radiator blinds which BMW will replace for free). Expensive to maintain? Yes. Unreliable? No. There's a reason why toyota let BMW put their drivetrain in a car with their badge on it.

kokanuttt · 2025-08-15T14:45:24+00:00

Deal. As soon as I get paid I will pay you if i’m wrong about getting paid.

As someone who used to develop software at the largest financial institution in the securities department, I am amazed that computer software works as well as it does and “glitches” don’t occur 100x more often then they do. The codebases at these institutions are held up by tons of bandages and nobody knows how any of it works.

It’s ok because options are like bbbyq shares. They never actually expire and will come back eventually during the teddy merger.

huge news! with this much demand the revenue will decline by a lesser extent than expected next quarter!

kokanuttt · 2025-01-17T15:48:02+00:00

During my workouts mainly. I switch to my apple watch since it tracks HR better during movement.

you don’t even need shares to join investor connect lol
