It has been 9 years since the Accord was bought in 2010. I have to say that Japanese cars are really easy to use. There is nothing wrong with them from the beginning to the end, but the interior is a little old, especially the leather of the car door handle position in the driver’s seat has been somewhat damaged. I had the idea of changing cars and began to learn about it online.

Although most of the cars are for domestic use, they occasionally pick up guests, and considering that this change is likely to take another era, it is targeted at slightly higher-end models, with a budget of about 400000.

After doing some homework, I began to screen many models. I first wanted rear drive, and secondly, because I was used to the big space of Accord, I directly chose the C-class car this time, and denied the McPherson suspension, so there are Mercedes-Benz E-Series, BMW 5-Series, Cadillac CT6, Infiniti Q70, and because Audi A6L and Lexus ES300 are also good, so they are also taken into consideration.

The next step is the process of going to the physical store to see the car. The opinions of the family leaders are very important. First, they negate the A6L. Secondly, I heard that CT6 is easy to scrape the chassis, ES300 increases the price queue, Infiniti is relatively small and the brand awareness is not loud enough, and the only thing left is Mercedes-Benz E and BMW 5.

I want to insert a paragraph here, because when I was looking at the car in the car shop, I saw that the imported Volkswagen was engaged in activities, and the Touareg pilot version was only about 480000 (it should be the naked car price). In my impression, Touareg was a car of the same level as GLE, X5 and Q7. I went to test drive under itching, and I felt really good, so I put all my mind on Touareg, and the landing price of the pilot version should be about 540000. The price on arrival of the sharp wing version is about 600000. After hesitating for a long time, reason finally got the upper hand. After all, cars should be more fuel-efficient, comfortable and more suitable for our current needs.

Finally, I ruthlessly left Touareg behind and continued to do my homework at Mercedes-Benz E and BMW 5. I felt that Mercedes-Benz was more commercial and BMW more casual. I really followed the saying: drive a BMW and take a Mercedes-Benz. After reviewing a lot of comments and experiencing two models, the balance began to deviate towards the BMW 5-Series.

Continue to do your homework, the 3.0 V6 in the BMW 5-Series will not be considered. In the 2.0 engine, 525530, standard axis, long axis, leading version, four-wheel drive version, premium version have been compared for a long time, after all, it is not easy to make money, not so chic.

It is difficult to choose again, the domestic long axis is comfortable to ride, and the imported standard axis is comfortable to drive, how to choose? Before going to the 4S store, I saw that the BMW 5-Series had a long axis and did not see the marked axis, so I inquired about a few more 4S stores and finally found a store with a marked axis. I took the family leader to the scene to have a look, after all, hundreds of thousands of consumption. I don’t rest assured if I don’t see it with my own eyes.

Finally see the standard axis of the BMW 5, the back row space is really smaller, not as strong as the long axis of business atmosphere. And the seat is hard relative to the long axis. At this time, the leader of the family spoke to import! The domestic one is so long that it is inconvenient to drive and it is difficult to find a parking space. after all, I drive alone most of the time, and I feel that the seat smell of the domestic car is much heavier than that of the imported one, and the most important thing is that I still believe in the quality of Germany. For patients with difficulty in choice, the leader’s message is really a blessing, ah, all kinds of feelings immediately marked the axis of the car is good.

Before waiting to make a decision, there was another change. The leader took a fancy to another BMW 3GT in the 4S store. After a trial seat, it felt good and began to negotiate the price. After some comparison, I chose the 320iGT campaign Evening style, which was about 380000. While the leader was negotiating the price, I contacted another 4S store. The phone said the price could be cheaper, so I rushed to the other 4S store. The price was set and a deposit was paid that night.

Because I have to go to work from Monday to Friday, it is already next Saturday when the car is tested, and because 3GT’s car has not been tested yet, I test-drive 3GT again after the test. It feels like nothing particularly good or particularly bad.

The final payment is about to be paid according to the procedure. In fact, I have been thinking about it these days. I always feel that something is wrong. There is a good saying: after you choose a model, there will always be one that makes you regret. I should have entered this state. Thinking about it is all kinds of good 5-series. Start to do the leadership work: 3GT is too small, the value preservation rate is too low, there is no 5-series atmosphere, suitable for young people, and so on, as a result, the leader also wavered, so change to 5-series!

Because we did not talk about the price of the 5 series in this store before, after the sales quoted price for the 5 series, I felt that the price was on the high side, at least compared with the price on the forum, but because I had already paid a deposit for 3GT, I was embarrassed to come back. I couldn’t help it. Who chose 3GT with a hot head at the beginning, and finally chose the standard axis 525i, the landing price 44.5, no package, 8-year maintenance and two-year extended guarantee. In addition, send recorder, foot mat, film, although the price is not very satisfactory, but feel can only talk so much, and finally did not have the nerve to talk about refund deposit, it is estimated that 4S point is not willing.

The car model has finally been decided, and the 530i will not be changed. It is him-the BMW 2020 525i standard axis carbon black / night blue!

The temporary license on December 28th and the new car on December 29th. Take some photos to share with you.
