[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are worried about maintenance, BMW comes with free maintenance for the first 4 years. If you can find a 1 year old BMW, that'd be your best bet.

Infinity is bottom of the barrel in terms of the luxury brands. Their styling is becoming more and more bland. Together with Nissan, their strategy is to sell new cars to people with less than ideal credit. This is why so many of them are turned back in still fairly new.

I have no experience with Audi, but have owned at least one or more BMW/MBs in the last 10 years. Based on my own experience and experience of other BMW/MB owners, the maintenance difference is minimal compared to the Honda and Toyotas that I've had. BMW maintenance is all included with the car for first 4 years, along with warranty means pretty much zero out of pocket other than tires and brake pads (if you ride your brakes). MB maintenance is not included, and I pay about $99 each year for an oil change. If I did it myself, the cost is about $50 for a new filter plus Mobile 1 from Walmart. Oil change on my Honda Odyssey is also yearly, at about $30 if I did it myself with Purolator 1 filter and Moblie 1. [/quote]

OP here, I took a quick look at the BMW website.  Seems like the most comparable car in terms of performance in the 3 series model with 300 HP with an MSRP of $37K.  I took a look at the used models out there approximately 1 year old and they're listed for around $29-$31K with between 20K-30K miles.

To be honest, I don't really care about the tech features (lane assist, collision warning, panoramic backup camera).  I'm happy with a car that's fun to drive.  [/quote]
