Parents lease is almost up.. Advise?

cuban335i · 11-03-2009, 04:51 PM

Hey guys,
my mom's lease on her 2008 750li individual composition is ending in a couple months.. The price range for a new car for her is about 100k plus or minus 5k..

What do you think she should get?
A) 2010 750li individual composition
B) 2010 Fisker Karma
C) other

let me know! No Mercedes.. Has to be a 4 door sedan type car that's relativly large like the 750li..

How about the new Porsche?

I personally would not get the same car again... but that's just me.
My family has always leased because they've liked to change cars around.

I won't mention the S550 since you said no Mercedes :P

The Audi A8 is quote comfortable I have to say.

persian54 · 11-03-2009, 06:36 PM

Just looked up the 2010 Fisker Karma... it gets my vote 100% lol

jopa489 · 11-03-2009, 06:39 PM

F01.

Maybe a Panamera if she likes it. I'd have a tough time buying one over a 7er though. Then again, the Turbo does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds.

My dad was in a similar position earlier this year. Here's what everyone suggested. I don't know if she wants new or used or buy or lease, but he ended up with the CFS in the end and he LOVES it.

Good luck to her!

jibaholic101 · 11-03-2009, 08:23 PM

f01. damn that is a short lease! 2 year?

cuban335i · 11-03-2009, 10:16 PM

I'm thinking the F01 is not as unique as the fisker karma (but the karma is a brand new make and model so I'm not sure about that) and I also like the porsche panamera s but the back is a little strange..

The panamera turbo is too much money it's 134k base I think.. So it's between the 750li x-drive individual composition, karma, and panamera s

and yea it was only a 2 year lease because in 08 my mom wanted the F01 but it hadn't come out yet..

jopa489 · 11-03-2009, 11:31 PM

I assume she wants to lease again? If so, the Karma probably isn't an option then. Can't imagine they would have any lease deals that even remotely reasonable.

jibaholic101 · 11-03-2009, 11:48 PM

tell her to get the f01....they are sooooo comfortable...

freshwhite335 · 11-04-2009, 12:46 AM

my mom just went from an E65 to an F01 and she loves it. it really does feel much more special than the E65.

MJC///M3 · 11-04-2009, 10:06 AM

F430 Scuderia.

/thread.

dillon733 · 11-04-2009, 11:00 AM

M5 hands down but if you want something bigger i'd say the panamera s

cuban335i · 11-04-2009, 12:07 PM

well it doesn't have to be a lease..

haha i can't imagine my mom in a f430 scud.. she is a typical terrible driver that drives below the speed limit on the highway.. it'd be embarrassing having her waste such a beautiful car.. and the m5 is about to be redone.. not interested in an outgoing model..

for some reason she has it in her head that she wants rear seats with legroom like the 750li cars..

what are your feelings F01 VS. Panamera S?

So tell her to get the F01. It's what she wants.

cuban335i · 11-04-2009, 06:00 PM

yea i guess.. i dunno i just think the F01 isn't unique enough.. but i guess with individual composition.. it's a little more unique..

Boost Gomez · 11-04-2009, 06:11 PM

If she was happy with the 750Li she should get the new one to replace it.

TheAcAvenger · 11-04-2009, 06:29 PM

S8 or Panamera

mastek · 11-04-2009, 06:35 PM

F01 -- or S550 ... cant go wrong with either

masserati!! its not played out and has a ferrari engine!!!

cuban335i · 11-05-2009, 12:32 AM

no merc's.. they think it's ugly haha... and the maserati is kind of ugly IMO.. they really like the fisker karma right now..

As of now.. this is the order of preference:
1. 2010 Fisker Karma (pending if they are able to be leased/banks would finance them, and have to test drive)
2. 2010 F01 750li Individual Composition
3. 2010 Porsche Panamera 4S

What used cars can be obtained for around 100k? 3 years old max..

MontegoGoGoGo · 11-05-2009, 02:38 AM

Dude, Bentley. Done.

Most have really low mileage too. Dad got his 07 with 6k miles.

Did you not even read the link I posted! Your mom is in the exact same position my dad was in.
Wanted a unique luxury sedan, not coupe, with auto tranny.

Post pics when she decides.
