At the end of 2019, my parents decided to buy a car in Chongqing because it was not inconvenient for them to come back for the Spring Festival, and my mother-in-law moved to Bishan with Dazhu. It is even more time-consuming and laborious to see my mother-in-law. Chongqing subway is crowded. Secondly, I also need a car to commute (after all, I don’t want to squeeze the subway). On weekends, I can go around with a car. As a result, it began a long process of car selection. Long text plus multi-map warning ahead.

First, the course of car selection

Maiteng → S90 → (CT5 Platinum, CT6 Deluxe, CT6 lead, 325li starter, 325li Yaoye, 330li Yaoye, A4 Gao Gong) → (525i, E260L, A6 45)
At first, my old man meant to buy a Mai Teng, because he liked Mai Teng. When he bought a car in 2015, the alternative model was LaCrosse, Mai Teng, Tuguan, and finally gave up the Volkswagen brand and chose Buick. At that time, I began to understand cars when I was still in college. My understanding of cars only stays in the appearance, interior decoration, power parameters and so on. I saw that the Buick interior was luxurious and powerful, and Volkswagen interiors were dark and dark. Instantly pass Volkswagen, and in the past, taxis on TV were all Volkswagen, so at that time in my mind Volkswagen = taxi. But this also left my father a regret, even if he also likes LaCrosse very much, but also want to buy another Maiteng, drive Maiteng in Chongqing, open LaCrosse in Wuxi, enjoy both ends.
Just after I have seen the word of mouth of more than N car home Maiteng owners, an advertisement for car house has been pushed to me, Volvo S90, 299900, interest-free stages for 3 years. I see, shit luxury brand C-class car only this price, then buy a hammer Volkswagen ah. Then I told the old man the idea of buying S90. The old man said that I had high vision and low skill, and then there was no such thing.

About a month later, on the eve of the Spring Festival in 2020, with the launch of Cadillac CT5 and the fact that friends wanted to buy BMW’s new three-series standard shaft, we went to see the car together.
First saw the new LaCrosse, then the S90 (next to the two 4S stores), and then went to the Cadillac 4S store to see the CT5. At that time, I saw the blue CT5 top platinum, and suddenly I couldn’t walk the road. I thought it was him (PS: the standard axis model is really more coordinated than the long axis). Although the S90 is atmospheric, it doesn’t have this personality, and the S90 is still the front drive.

Finally, I came to the BMW 4S store with my friends, saw the new 3 series, and immediately felt that there was something to discuss. This interior is indeed more luxurious than the black interior of CT5, and the space in the back row is obviously larger, although I don’t often sit in the back row, but it’s better than nothing.

When my parents came back from Wuxi, I told them that I wanted to buy a new 3 series again. My old man said, S90 is better, atmosphere, the company vice presidents all open this, 3 series are all opened by children, you drive S90 out very elegant. I said that it is appropriate for me to open a 3-series in my 20s, and the popularity of the first-tier luxury is higher than that of the second-tier luxury.
At this time, the new 3 series was included in the range of car selection, followed by the scuffle time between the first launch of CT5, CT6, 325li (optional entertainment set) and 325li Yaoye, and then the suspension of production of 325, which directly became the choice between CT6 luxury and 325li Yayue, during which the price of the 3 series was getting higher and higher, and A4 Gao Gong and Mercedes Benz C were included in the selection range, but it was finally decided that the BMW brand was needed. After all, I still want a first-tier luxury brand at this price, even if the second-tier luxury brand has a higher level and higher configuration. However, the abandonment of the A4 is due to the suspension of production and the absence of red inside and black top versions, the C-level 1.5t48v has a lot of light mixing failures and is about to be replaced. Because the price of Series 3 was too high, I was forced to take a look at Series 5. After all, 525 is only about 70,000 yuan or 80,000 yuan more expensive than 325li.
Finally, in March of this year, I couldn’t wait. I wanted to wait for the 325li to fall to 355000 last year, but it became more and more expensive and reduced. However, if it is more expensive, it will be more expensive, and as soon as the new C-Class comes out, there will be a struggle again, and most of the new Mercedes-Benz C will have to increase its fares, and at that time, the new 3-Series will not reduce the price even if it is not recycled, so there is no need to wait any longer. Then I told my parents the idea of booking a car, and then I went to the 4S store to bargain.

Second, 4S stores bargain to book a car

The one parked in front of the 4S store has just arrived at the store for 13 days marked 525i with Harman, this is the one I mentioned later, but it is not mine yet, after all, it is time to go to the 4S store to talk about the 3 series.

The carbon black axis has a melancholy color and a coordinated figure, but the wheels are a little small. Although the real car doesn’t look small, the picture looks smaller.

After all, I already know a lot about the car model. I have to say that the price of BMW has been so strong in the past two years. The 3-Series Yaoye quotation is 38.8 landing, and it is all futures. It will not be offline until April 15 and arrive at the store at the end of April. All the models on the way have a choice of 5000 yuan, and the actual price is 39.3. This price can be landed on the 40 A6, the salesman also said that 325li Yaoye is not cost-effective, the buyers of this car are basically true fans, and the main selling models in the store are 320li and 325li sports. And my parents also think that the price-to-performance ratio of buying more than 390000 3 series is a little low, so I asked if there is a Harman 525i car in the store, the color is not red, blue or white, the interior doesn’t matter, cognac and black are fine. As a result, there was a check on the sales, and the one parked at the door was only 13 days after arriving at the store. Then immediately called the sales forget the price of 325li Yaoye and 525i, and then took the quotation back to ask Dad. Dad said to buy 5 series, 3 series performance-to-price ratio is too low.

This picture was taken when I was picking up the car. When I picked up the car, a carbon black 325lim sports car with 19-inch wheels had been bought.

In fact, the price of the 5 series has been known on the Internet for more than a year. 525 is basically between 44 and 46. The day before the bargain, I read the latest price in the forum. A rider in Guangdong mentioned 525li. I think it’s almost enough for me to take Harman 45.5. Before the quotation is 47, I will go up and directly report a 45% package and leave on the ground (let’s start with a dragon knife). The salesman said it would not work, so I asked him to apply to the leader first. After that, I came back to say that I wanted 45.5 plus a 9000 double guarantee. As soon as I definitely refused, I said that I didn’t want this double guarantee, and I went through a pull. Anyway, when the car price came down, I had to buy a double guarantee or some other boutique. Finally finalize all 46 done (car price + purchase tax + insurance), including nothing else, except the floor mat, trunk pad, recorder, car film, etc., and a 30% discount on 5-year 100000 km maintenance. But in fact, the insurance was 3K less than the 1.3 expected, and finally 45.7. I suggest that when you buy a car, don’t talk about the price of a naked car, it doesn’t make any sense, just talk about how much you can drive away. Those 38, 39 naked car prices are sure to let you buy double insurance or more than 10,000 boutique, in fact, this boutique he was going to send included in the price, naked car price is higher, he will not charge you boutique fee, but things are given to you.

Third, car inspection and formalities

On the day I came to go through the formalities, a carbon black 530i was temporarily placed on the 3-series platform, which instantly turned sour again. However, the 530i is nearly 60,000 more expensive than the 525i, so save some thoughts for changing cars in the future (you can do it after 845m wheels), and then you can change cars for 530i or 540i, or even M550i.

Customs order

I can’t help it. I like listening to music.

The space in the back row is really not small. It is said that the standard axis 5 series is not as big as the 3 series. I think it is not true. I can only say that the longitudinal space is a little worse, but the horizontal space is much wider than the 3 series, and the seats of the 5 series are more spacious.

IV. Pick up the car for the record

Blue in the sun, about the same color as the blue-black ink of a pen

Forgive my parking skills, but my mileage should not be 200km at this time.

Fifth, put the film on the card in the store

After the construction of the 325lim campaign, I personally think that the 3-series non-obsidian version, white and blue are better than carbon black and red, especially white with this chrome-plated window strip. And the real car and photos, and this generation of 3 series long axle also looks very coordinated.

After the completion of the construction of the 6GT luxury, I have to say that a larger hub is the atmosphere. This is the color of gem blue, and many 5-series cyclists are also asking which one is black, gem blue or carbon black.

The one in the back is my carbon black. in this light, the picture is basically a blue car, and the sapphire blue of 6GT is completely black. Carbon black has a little sense of Mediterranean blue in this light. For 20 years, I just wanted to choose Mediterranean blue and cyan. But in the middle of the change, there is no ground blue.

Under construction

The salesman put it on the card in person.

Sixth, the feeling of using the car and the answer to the question.

1. Appearance
Of course it is handsome, isn’t it handsome to import the standard axis Deyuan horse? The only disadvantage is that the hub is not good-looking, not as good as 845m or the old 664m. I’m going to change it on my own later.
2. Interior decoration
Keep to the rules, compared with Mercedes-Benz, it must be my brother, but what I pay attention to is not the interior decoration when buying BMW.
3. Space
I think this problem is the menstruation problem in the 5-series forum. There is no business demand in my family, so there is no demand for back row space. My parents come back once a year, and I basically drive instead of sitting in the back seat. Even if I want to sit, I am the copilot. Driving a long shaft is not only like a driver but also a driver. It is absolutely impossible to buy a long shaft in the back row for others to enjoy. Of course, cyclists who have a demand for the back row can ignore my point of view. Don’t say much about the following picture comparison.

This is the back row of the 530li, the front row of my sitting position (I am barefoot 170cm), the back row is about half an arm long, which translates into my fist, about 5-6 punches.

This is my standard axis, my sitting position in the front row and about 3-4 punches in the back row. Stretch out and sit 2-3 punches. It’s enough for home use.

4. Power
This is also a menstrual problem, nothing more than questioning whether the 525 is powered enough, the meat is not meat, and whether the pony will pull the cart. Before I answer this question, I have to ask myself what kind of car I was driving before. I have only driven my father’s LaCrosse 2.0t and my friend’s vanguard 1.5L before. For me, the 525i of the official 7.8s is enough and passionate. My SPORT mode plus S gear can make my heart drive dangdang. The power of BMW matches well and twists its feet low, so you can feel the power to follow your feet. For me, the 525 is a passionate car for the time being. after all, many of the family cars running on the road accelerate beyond 8S or even 10S. My father’s LaCrosse is labeled as 07.8S 254 pieces 350 Nm, but the actual driving speed is not as good as mine. Many people say that it won’t work after 525 120km/H. I personally tried to step on 170. my pioneering friend stepped on 180. he called you how fast this car is, and you have a good sense of push. So still, it depends on how you define it.
5. Driving quality
Very comfortable and good texture, can be very good to worry about the shock while retaining a certain sense of road. Before the trial ride of the 530li luxury, it is also an 18-inch explosion-proof tire. The long shaft made me feel like a boat. 150 test drivers changed lanes for me. I felt dizzy and obviously felt like a boat. This includes the new three series, and the new three series of this generation gives me the feeling of a shrinking long axis 5 series. On the other hand, the chassis of the standard axis 5 is obviously much stronger, and there is basically no roll in the 100km/H corner.
6. Manipulation
The direction is also very accurate, and it is easy to grasp the wrong car to make a U-turn. Especially when there is oil coming out of the bend.
7. Fuel consumption
Currently 9.4
8. Sound
For the question of whether it is necessary to choose a Harman Catton stereo, if you like to drive a car and listen to music, I personally suggest that you choose it. Although this Harman of BMW has no advantage in the same class, it is better than nothing. You go outside to change it later, the price is high, and you have to tear the car apart. Even if you don’t care, many of the Harman outside are still fake, unless you change to other brands.

+ 5 + 8-2 + 6 + 3 + 5 + 5 + 5

It’s not easy to edit.
