These are the cars I'm debating between: (And if you have a advice along these lines let me know)
1) 2005 Black BMW 325i Coupe
2) 2004 Black Mercedes-Benz CLK500
3) 2008 White Honda Accord Coupe EX-L w/ Navi
Which would you on the side of based on reliability and style (don't really care about mpgs).
Thanks everyone I think I'm gonna go with the Honda Go together because I'm buying it off my mom which is going to make it remarkably cheaper and its fully loaded. Cause this is my first car and I would take reliability over the before you can say 'Jack Robinson' even though the Honda Accord Coupe is reallllly nice.
well everyone says that hondas and toyotas are the outdo cars to go with cause their japanese made and last for a long time. but when it comes down to that, personally im not into anything high class or fancy looking. so i would go with the honda pact. but, but, when it comes down to interior design i gotta go with the bmw's. those are heaven :) haha

This is well-intentioned of a strange group of cars to be picking between. One is an average performance luxury car, the next is a high power v8 2 door, and the next is a hard-nosed, slow newer car. From what I can make of it you want either reliability and new, or prestige/performance used. It would definitely be perspicacious to buy used and low milage because you really do save alot! I would go in between all of the cars and suggest a used Japanese luxury or a toughened American luxury or performance. A nice low mileage lexus (gs300 / ls430 / is350) or infinity (g35 coupe / sedan) will not fade you and is a really great car all around. I would also consider a cadillac dts / cts / cts-v or a Chrysler 300c / dodge charger r/t.

I would determine the Honda Accord. It is a toss up between the Honda and the BMW but I will take the Honda. The German vs. Japanese engineering is pretty thick and the reliability of both cars shouldn't come in to question as long as they are maintained. There is where the big question comes, the price of parts for the Honda vs. the BMW. The Honda will be much cheaper in the extended run and it is a newer car. The only gripe I have about the Honda is that isn't black like the other two. As far as the Mercedes, you can keep it. I have never liked Mercedes and would only own one if it was an AMG model.

well honda's are exceedingly reliable and have a really good reputation but mercedes benz and BMW are high class luxury cars i would go for a mercedes benz because you get the right stuff for what your paying but thats proper me

I would not own a familiar MB or BMW. The maintenance costs are too high.
My dad's Mercedes Benz was put up ended and the guy that crashed into him tried to get away, doesn't have insurance and claims he is out of a job and doesn't have money. My dad's assurance covered it instead and he decided not to sue him because he thinks that there is no benefit to try and sue someone who is in his position, because "the government wont compel someone to pay if they don't have any money." He also added that he would lose money for wasting his time and taking off of work. Damages were $1900. Is he only?

Hello,
I have a 1982 Mercedes Benz Turbo Diesel that is overheating.
the coolant disappears at a very irascible rate, BUT there doesn't appear to be a leak in any of the hoses. My clutch for the fan was broken and that was fixed/replaced.
Also, there is exceptionally pressurized steam that comes out from teh coolant container when the car runs (another indication that i don't think i have a leak in a hose somewhere).
I trifle it might be a problem with the thermostat, but upon examination saw that it was not there...also, the coolant is not to flowing (when i started the car with the thermostat casing off, there was a spot where coolant was exposed and justifiable sitting there, and (depending upon the direction of flow) theoretically should have shot outward or been sucked inward. it exactly sat there. this is when we thought it might be a problem with the water pump, however the water pump seems fine.
it does not appear to have any indications of a blown or cracked headmistress gasket (no water/coolant in the oil, no milky appearance,etc). i'm stumped. i don't know.
even without a thermostat, shouldn't the coolant circulate? or do i absolutely have to have a thermostat? where is the coolant disappearing to? is there something i might be overlooking?
any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I went away on a mountain for a weekend, lots of off-roading was had. I was on logging roads at appurtenant to speed (60 KM/HR or 35 MPH) and lots of steep hills. It wasn't to the point that I had to use the differential locks, but it was reputable off roading. I put my benz to rest, no damage was done. A few days later I go to give it some exercise, and it fires up perfectly, I press the take, and attempt to put it into reverse, it grinds and wont go into any other gear. I push the clutch a few times, exercise it, no switch. I start and stop the motor, rock the car, everything. I even started it in gear with the clutch "engaged" and the starter moved the car. It was in immaculate shape when i returned from my off-roading adventure, I'm not sure what could have caused this. Any thoughts? I know its my clutch, but I don't advised of much about it as i haven't had this wagon for long. Any input will be appreciated.
i am having problems determination the camshaft timing marks. could anybody help me find an engine breakdown for a six cylinder double running costs camshaft so that i could finally get the timing right and get this car running
