So you're saying that its fine to have a noisy differential on a $50,000+ car?

Keep buying cadillac, I hope people do, that way maybe they'll have come cash to fix their glaring problems. Until then I'll keep laughing as i pass them on the side of the road in my infiniti (which i currently drive) or other well priced, well built, and pretty much problem free car.

You're clearly an expert on the subject...being able to spell INFINITI so well and all....and i didnt mention lexus. Show me an infiniti in the same class of a s55 amg, and then maybe you can talk. But for reference i own 2 infiniti's one with 54k one with over 100k, both have only had tiny problems, and wear parts (one had a knock sensor, the other had a broken cd player, both easy fixes) my mercedes however has had 2 transmissions (both before it hit 17k, the first before it hit 5k) 3 ac compressors and one condensor, 7 (and its still not fixed) blinker motors, a new ECU, a new key, and now needs (at 32k) a new torque converter, as its current one is leaking and causing the car to stall. Heck id take a cadillac over that piece of junk

I had a 98 C230, no power, cheap as all hell, but never really had a problem.

now i have a 2004 C240 4Matic. And i honestly cant wait to get rid of it.



Sorry for the arguing tone, i try not to get angry over stuff like this, but people online seem to love to fight.


I think some of Mercs higher end stuff is alright, but i would avoid C-classes at all costs. They also dont offer enough manuals for me.

You are correct you can tell people the truth and it is sometimes what they don't want to hear. Everyone has different viewpoints.

How old is old?
I am 65 and have a 2007 xlrv and just put D3's chip in to boost HP and will add air intake as soon as it is ready. Next stop is Dyno and then to drag strip.

[Superior Cadillac]

I would love to try some d3 products when I get a customer that wants to get more power out of their car.

Probably not. Can you imagine how many pedestrians grammy would mow down in that thing?

You're probably OK Quick, as long as you're not confusing the brake peddle with the accelerator and don't need assistance using the restroom.

You should not let your personal prejudice and envy get in the way of intelligent discussion. I expected more from this forum.

I would love to give you a personal demonstration of my ability to place my foot exactly where I want.

you expected more from a car-talk forum? no offense, but you're definitely old enough to know better than that!
