Half the price of JETS latest ride. Don't get me wrong, his car is a weapon and I wish I could afford one 🤣 But just not in the realm of possible at this point. Stinger at least is achievable. And yeah, $80k for a new Golf R - hard pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure when I'll end up getting it, but hopefully early next year. 274kW and 510 Nm, 8-speed auto with flappy paddles. Ordered Snow White Pearl. Didn't do a heap for me in photos, but seeing it in person it was my favourite colour for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respectully disagree.. I've had my 2018 C63s since new and although I've been meticulous with maintenance I have belted the absolute cr@p out of it and with 90k on the clock it still honestly drives like the day I picked it up... they are amazing cars... only about to trade it in as finance contract comes to an end soon.. @JETURBO Congrats on the new car mate may you enjoy it in good health... keep an eye on the oil consumption on that beast my brother in laws M5 comp 2021 model likes a drink but it's a cracker machine.

It served its purpose of helping me save for my house originally though, so there’s that at least 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
