What car people look for in a daily driver: Cheap to run (good on fuel). Cheap to maintain (service and consumables). Something that you don’t care if it gets scratched or dinked. What people don’t look for as a daily driver: W12 e63

Love the 55! I’ll be sure to keep posting about the e63, I honestly think the m156 is a great motor and can be very reliable if taken care of. For instance, I believe the head bolt issue is blown waaay out of proportion by the internet, my mechanic agrees. Either way though, m113k or m156, you will have a great time but will be required to pay for some maintenance. Gotta pay to play 😎
@6.2Slomaro16 күн бұрын
Have you seen carwow video with the old c63 vs new c63 and m3 new/old and an RCF? M156 such a badass motor. Just picked 2014 e63s amg, prior to trying this platform I’ve only stayed with the M113K since those were super reliable and lots of torque.

I have a question, I’ll be getting a car from Carvana soon. I know you waited 30 days for your car. Do you still have to make the first car note payment. Or will over lap to the following month.
@BenjiTalksCars17 күн бұрын
Good question- I did not finance so I am not sure, however I do know that the registration process does not start until the 7-day trial is over. In other words, Carvana only sends the paperwork to register the car in your name after the 7-day trial period is over, and with that I would think you don’t start the payments until a month after that point. Just speculating though, not 100% sure about that

Hi! Yasir from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia here. A few pointers : Best way is to first, spray DIY Detail Iron Remover liberally on the wheel face / spokes / barrel, once you start seeing purple bleeding on the wheels, foam spray DIY Detail All Clean on the wheels + wheel barrel, and tires with a foamer ( like IK Foam Pro 2 ), then drench your E63 body panels + glass + side mirrors with DIY Detail Rinseless Wash, starting from the top ( roof ) and downwards, the idea is to let DIY Detail Rinseless Wash, carry any dissolved and encapsulated dirt and grime down to the ground .Then, let it dwell for a few minutes ( don't let it dry up on the panel, at this stage ), and at the same time, scrub the wheels ( use a soft flagged tip brush on the face + spokes + wheel nuts, barrel brush on the barrels, stiff brush for the tires ), then rinse away the whole car + glass + wheels with DI water ( you can do it with a larger size pump sprayer like IK Multi 6 ). Next, do not wipe dry, instead spray the whole car again with DIY Detail Rinseless Wash from the top, all the way to the bottom ( don't forget your wheels + tires ) + clean up the rest of the leftover dirt and grime with the DIY Legacy sponge ( one panel per side ) dunked in DIY Detail Rinseless Wash for body panels + glass + wheel face / spokes / barrel. Use the tire brush dunked in DIY Detail Rinseless wash on the tires + soft flagged tip brush dunked in DIY Detail Rinseless wash on the wheel face + wheel nuts + spokes, barrel brush dunked in DIY Detail Rinseless Wash on the wheel barrels. Dry the body panels + glass + wheels with DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss, fold your drying towel MF so it's easier to handle, doesn't rub on the tarmac, and you also gain, plenty of sides to use. To apply DIY Detail Tire Dressing on the tires, use a tire dressing brush, or a foam that's nicely sized with your tire wall ( avoids overspray on body panels + wheels ), spray DIY Detail Tire Dressing on the brush / foam, and apply. Buff off after a few minutes if required. Done! Oh, to avoid the DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss left cured on your MF drying towel, dunk it in DIY Detail Rinseless Wash overnight, then rinse + wring it up a few times, then wash 'em with for example, P&S Rags To Riches. Dry with extremely low dryer settings ( tumble dry with no heat ), or hang it to dry under a shade / indoors. The MFs will bounce back soft and ready for the next wash. #diydetail

This came up in my feed. Though we all had to start somewhere, putting towels on the ground is a universally bad idea. I use the DIY rinseless, as well. An excellent product. Mostly, I like its lubricity and its ability to remain on vertical panels. I think I have 6 rinseless products, at this point, including ONR that hasn't been used in at least a decade. They're all pretty decent. FWIW, I prefer to wash a dirty car with a shampoo, after a rinseless presoak. Enjoyed the video. Good luck.
