Like most boys, I have loved cars since I was a child. When I was in junior high school, my parents rewarded me with a very popular mountain bike called Jetya “jaguar”. The trademark was a leopard, which probably had nothing to do with Jaguar. The king supreme series 21 speed, the car body with lightweight design, aluminum alloy rims, extremely comfortable to ride, accompanied me through a tense and nostalgic high school life. Later, I learned to ride a motorcycle. I rode 50, 70 and 125 of Jialing Motorcycle. Once I had the honor to ride the famous bike at that time-Happiness 250. What impressed me most was the roar of the throttle. I felt that the high displacement was cool.
After work, I became obsessed with cars. I couldn’t afford to buy a car at that time, so I read car magazines all day. What I envied most at that time was that the son of the boss of a company next to our unit came back from the army as a soldier. His father spent more than 400,000 to buy him a Jiamei, which was really cool to drive. Due to work reasons, I learned to drive for 10 years to get a driver’s license, the first car is the third uncle’s Elysee, should be 11 or 12 low-equipped, manual gear, no reversing images and radar, those two years of driving practice so that my driving skills rapidly improved, for the future driving to develop solid basic skills.
After 14 years of having children at home, people of all ages and children, it is really inconvenient to travel without a car, so I decided to buy a car for my wife. Wife is a thrifty wife, the requirements of the car is to save fuel luxury brand, I do not say that everyone should guess, we bought the Lexus CT200h.
The CT200h car is easy to drive and saves fuel, but the disadvantage is that the space is too small, the seat is small, we can make do with the small trunk, we can’t stand it. As it was the first time to buy a car, I didn’t care about the small size of the trunk at that time, so there was no room after I put a cart in the trunk when I was traveling. As a result, the first car was sold in less than a year, depreciating by 1/4!
The car is mainly driven by the wife, and the second one is mainly chosen by her, which coincides with the listing of the NX of Lexus. The cool appearance and the excellent reliability of the mine car directly conquered us and unanimously decided to buy it! NX just appeared on the market, the price is very strong, Chengdu buys a car to increase the price by 30000, yes, you read it correctly, it is not three thousand, it is thirty thousand! (later, in the group of car owners, I also heard that someone bought a test drive with an additional 30,000 yuan.) at that time, the current car in Chengdu did not have the color his wife liked, and if we had, we might have bought it at a higher price (now I am afraid to think about it). Later, with a try attitude, I called the 4S store in Chongqing, and there happened to be two NX200 coming to the store right away, the price only increased by 3000, and both of them were our favorite configuration, wife’s favorite wine red mica, a black inside and a brown rice, we immediately booked the black inside and picked up the car in February 15.
We moved to Didu in 1919, and I drove most of the time. After nearly a year, I couldn’t stand the power of NX200 150hp and made up my mind to consider changing cars. To say one more thing, we bought the NX200 vanguard version except for weak power, all other aspects are good, automatic lighting, automatic air conditioning and automatic wiper, electric skylight and electric tail door, four doors keyless entry and keyless start, front seat heating, rear row air conditioning outlet, rear seat can be adjusted to semi-lying mode, the most important thing is that the floor in the middle of the back row is not raised, three people are very spacious.

In fact, I have been looking for the third car in our family since the beginning of 18. Personally, I prefer cars, and the range of choices is basically C-Class cars of luxury brands (of course, I was just peeking at it at the time).
First of all, I went to see the 5 series and tried to drive the 528Li. My first impression was that the sound insulation effect of the 5 series was very good, the seat was comfortable, and the power feeling of 2.0T was much stronger than that of NX200.
Then I went to see the E-class. A good friend was the sales director of a Mercedes-Benz 4S store in Chengdu at that time. Of course, I was advised to buy the E-class, and the price must be affordable. The new E-class interior decoration is luxurious, the appearance of the standard plate is tall and high, and if you want to buy it, you must choose black outside and brown inside, but it feels like it was driven by a business boss and a sharp weapon for business reception, which is not suitable for family use. As for the large standard version, the appearance and interior decoration are a little different. In short, it feels like Mercedes-Benz is always a little away from me.
The Audi A6 had not been changed at that time, and the appearance of the old model was really unacceptable.
Lexus ES300h styling and interior are beautiful, the only deduction is power, the feeling is still a little weak, and Lexus regards the A4 as its competitive model, feeling a little underpriced.
The Infiniti Q70 is a good car, but the interior is too ugly, yes, it must be described with ugly words. If one day the interior can be made as beautiful as the appearance, Infiniti will certainly be a hit!
Lincoln mainland has a very high performance-to-price ratio, and there is nothing wrong with the car except for its heavier body, but it feels that its brand recognition is slightly poor.
I was impressed that the magic car Cadillac CT6 could be put in the water tank, but when I got to the 4S store that day, there was no sales reception. Did it sell well already? PASS!
Jaguar XF has a big discount. It feels like buying a B-class car when buying a XF. At that time, it ventured to ask the price of the XJ, but XJ did not show the car or test drive, so the trip to the Jaguar 4S store ended.
Choose to initially narrow the scope to the 5 series and E level, at the beginning are more interested in the 530Li premium M sports suit and the E300L luxury model. I care more about configuration. I feel that although these two models are the top configuration of 2.0T, they are not the highest in configuration. After leaning towards BMW, my mind swelled up. By the way, I also looked at the configuration of 540Li. 540Li has more configurations than 530Li:
Collision defense assistance, star panoramic skylight, rear seat ventilation and heating, front comfortable seat and electric waist support, fragrance system, rear window and rear sunshade, mobile phone wireless charging, gesture control, WIFI hotspot, active cruise control, head up display, rear air suspension, Nappa seat.
It seems that the configuration of the 3.0T model is the most complete, and I have thought about it and compared the 540Li with the E320L:
In terms of power, 540Li340 horsepower, E320L272 horsepower, and BMW win, while the weight of the 540s is 110kg lighter than 320. do you think you will feel cool if you drive 540s and sit on two 110jin girls with acceleration and handling more than 320s? Thanks to its lighter body, BMW’s 0-100 acceleration and 100-0 braking time are shorter than Mercedes-Benz.
In terms of configuration, I only remember that BMW has at least more front and rear seat ventilation than Mercedes-Benz (this function is very useful no matter in the north and south of the motherland), perforated leather seats (to increase comfort), and feel that BMW seats are bigger and thicker than Mercedes-Benz seats, wireless CarPlay (good news for iPhone users), and rear double-zone air conditioning (it is really inappropriate for top models like the E320L to give only two air outlets in the rear). Look up display (feel that BMW looks up to show a lot of content, at least better than the ES300h executive version), rear air suspension.
Driving experience: since you have no say without a test drive of the E320L, the famous car critic YYP said in a comparative test of the two cars that BMW is quieter and better than Mercedes-Benz, and the comfort of driving and riding is too important to me.
By comparison, the gap is very obvious, it is basically certain to buy 540Li.

About the summer of 18, I went to Ximen to play with a buddy who had a 17-model 525Li. When he heard that I was interested in the 5-Series, he took me to a 4S store near his home to see the car. At that time, the 4S store did not have a 540Li show car, but there was a test drive, and it could be test-driven, just like me! After the test drive, what impressed me most was that the sound insulation effect was very good, and that the HUD display was clear, including speed limit signs and music messages, and so on. After the test drive, I was satisfied with the sales, so I asked if I was willing to replace it. I think the price of 4S store replacement must be relatively low, not very willing. The salesman advised me that since I had brought all the cars and asked them to evaluate the used cars, I did not expect that his remark made me decide to buy a used car. While waiting for the results of the second-hand car evaluation, we saw an advertisement for a used car on the wall. We happened to see a 540Li with a mileage of more than 7000 kilometers and a price of just over 500000, which was nearly 100000 cheaper than the price of the new car at that time. At this time, the evaluation price of used cars came out, and the evaluation of cars for more than three years was half as fast as the landing price. At that time, I thought my old car was going to depreciate. If I bought a used car, wouldn’t I have earned it back? I immediately took my buddy to the used car showroom to see the car.
Moonlight silver + mocha interior decoration, no installation, the whole car original paint, car condition boutique! Immediately bargain with the sales, after a tug-of-war, the final price difference between the two sides is less than 10,000, in fact, I can already accept the price at that time, but my wife said to wait a few more days before resuming sales. As a result, when I contacted the sales, he said that the car had been sold, which was the price he said. Missed ah, let me very depressed for a long time. I didn’t expect a better car waiting for me at that time! )
From then on, I honestly drove the NX for a period of time, but I couldn’t stand it for a long time. The first motivation was too weak, and the second big man drove a red car too conspicuously for a long time. About in the second half of 1919, as the Imperial Capital was about to implement national six emissions, luxury brands promoted more and more, and discounts were getting bigger and bigger. The first thing that came into view was Q7, a typical C-class luxury SUV. After the replacement, the car body lost more than 300kg and changed from a middle-aged man to a young man. It may be that there are more middle-aged men in the customer, but the sales are not as good as those of the previous generation. Originally in the same class, the price is the lowest, affected by the country six, the price continues to decline, I like the 2.0T sports version + summer bag full landing more than 600000, I feel that the cost-effective ratio has been super high. But my wife said that Q7 was too big to buy, and it was useless to do a quick month’s work. I couldn’t help it. I ranked lower than her at home, and the dream of Q7 fell through.
My wife likes NX very much, but under my soft and hard bubble, she also agrees to change cars. Once took her to the BMW 4S store to see the 540, she felt very ordinary, but took a fancy to the next 6GT. At that time, she asked about the price of the big trip. The price of landing was just over 700000, which was almost 100000 more expensive than Q7. The performance-to-price ratio was too low, or there was no performance-to-price ratio. After thinking about it, I thought of the second-hand car again. As a result, it was found that there was a white 630 sport in the home of the second-hand car. The mileage was more than 7000, and it was licensed for more than a year. There was only one piece of spray paint on the outside. 4S shop second-hand car sales said it was a lady’s first-hand car. Added the fragrance system, the price is about 570000. Other car sources are basically 640, the price is close to 70, this price to buy a used car feels a bit over budget.
When looking at the home of second-hand cars, I inadvertently thought of taking a look at 540Li. As a result, I found a lot of 2018 models with a price of about 53. Later, I went to several BMW officially certified second-hand car stores, with a lot of cars, mainly white, silver and black, with mileage of thousands to more than 10,000 kilometers. Some models were equipped with enhanced driving assistance, Baohua Weijian and back-row entertainment system. Here is a compliment to BMW’s officially certified used car. The salesman will tell you about the car’s maintenance (spray painting, sheet metal, replacement parts, etc.). You can also check the car’s maintenance records. After many rounds of bargaining, communication, exchange, and so on, we finally negotiated the price with one of the largest BMW certified used car stores in the country at the end of 19 years.
