If I had the spare change I'd get a Tesla. From what I've heard their customer service is fucking amazing.
I was listening to a podcast out of the US where they were discussing owning a Tesla. The host was having some problems with the braking on his and after the dealership was unable to fix it after two tries they apparently flew an engineer out from the company headquarters to him to have him check it out. That's some serious customer service.
If I only had spare change, I would buy a 5 year old japanese kei car with low mileage for 1/100 of the cost of a Tesla. Japanese kei cars do not require customer service because they do not break. Thats good customer service.If I had the spare change I'd get a Tesla. From what I've heard their customer service is fucking amazing.

Agree. If you live in Tokyo, you don't need a car and the money is better spent on more sensible things like women and booze.And after wasting 1/100th of your money recklessly like that you would then be obliged to invest the rest wisely to good whiskey and bad women.
If you are single and living in central Tokyo area then the only smart move is not to get a car. Just think how many taxi drives you get with just the price of the parking lot.
And they still don't let you drive while drunk, which would be pretty much all the time if you invested your monies wisely.
Don't know about never breaking, my boss' kei car fits that bill and it keeps breaking in new and expensive ways.

I agree, but it sounds like the OP has the cash to burn. If he's so inclined to burn it, more power to him.
No, we cannot be just passive standby's and watch him burn a whole to his pocket.
We need to be the wise ones and show the way to the next whiskey bar.
And obviously to the next little girl.
Little as in size, not in age.
that's actually the only way i've ever 'impressed' any females with a car. Very few here around my age can drive manual and one girl even wanted me to teach her. The manual transmission also turns my 'cute little thing' into a pocket rocket, which i'm sure got some panties wet....Any car with a stick shift manual transmission would impress a girl that she could say, sugooi. It’s normal in Europe, but in Japan it proves you are an advanced class driver.
Thats true, expect some over enthusiastic male tweens and teens to be crawling over your car.Should we mention that nice cars only attract teenage boys attention?

Get a car you like and enjoy driving. Don’t worry about what others think. If it’s practical, ask about reliability.
Agreed. The S is more comfy and projects a more mature, powerful image. Still it’s a sinkhole financially.S Class wins. The SLC, for me rides bumpy and not smooth because it is so compact.
