Installed black grills
I got my black performance grills installed. I think it really makes the car look better.
Also I included my infamous cla45. |

Black grills look really nice on a white car.

I spent the same basically and got the 235 and a Macan because they're both awesome (similar to OP's garage) but totally different (unlike OP). Different strokes for different folks...

I've driven tons of Mercs (I owned the SL, grandparents have a CLS500, ML350, and previous E500, and I've driven a half dozen C-classes on test drives as well as a couple of SLKs), and every time I drive one, it just seems to feel bulky compared to the BMWs I've owned/driven. |

Audi and BMW are pretty similar (though I prefer BMW). Both make excellent handling cars with peppy engines that provide a lot of spark. Their turbo-charged performance cars are quick and nimble. Infiniti is on its own little island as their cars don't feel heavy, do have lots of power, but just don't handle well (very JDM feel). I like the old G and M series, but they don't have a car in their lineup right now that I would own. Porsche is on its own level. The 911s and Caymans I've driven have a distinctly more exotic feel to me than any of the ones listed above. I'll probably add a Porsche to the lineup one of these days, but it won't be as my daily driver. Comfort and versatility is the brand's biggest drawback in my eyes. Acura, Lexus, Volvo, etc aren't worth a damn IMO if you can afford something better, and I haven't had the luxury of driving anything too exotic yet (Ferrari, Lambo, etc). |

Macan would definitely be my choice if I was in the market for something practical.

EDIT: should be 718 as corrected above, Friday afternoon brain malfunction. If you google 917 you'll be looking at the old $20M+ race car.

Can't say I'm complaining. While no car is perfect, my list of gripes for either is very short and very inconsequential. Mostly I annoy myself going from one to the other and forgetting things like comfort access differences, etc. I'd highly recommend the Macan to literally anyone looking for a larger car. And we all know and love the 235 so no need to talk that one up here.
