if u can afford expensive car why can't you afford the maintenance?

Probably for the same reason some people buy expensive houses and cannot afford to furnish them. Vanity....keeping up with the Jonses

I wouldn't call lexus a fancy Toyota, in the past yes, but not anymore ;)

It's made by Toyota on the Camry frame. The lexus is a quality car for sure.

The ES is, and maybe the RX...all the RWD ones are made on different chassis.

i don't believe a damn post in this thread until parker posts.  my friend has a 2007 c230 and it runs like kitten.  i think she basically gets oil and filter every 6 mths or so, and that's it.  WTF is up with all these maintenance posts?

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Put a new starter on C Class Merc two years ago, $97.00.  Oil change: $24.00, headlight: $24... Etc...

Worst thing probably is the H Rated tires (so they don't bust a belt in the tire) because of cars weight or something.  Like $100 extra dollars when you get new tires.

What the fuck is with this yuppy I've earned it attitude. Your pissing away money, theirs no way around that. It's this attitude that's fucking around our economy.
OK. I enjoy riding in a relativly new car. I can afford it with no problems. Me buying new cars and paying a shit load of taxes helps the economy son.

lexus(toyota) less expensive to maintain compare to europian cars, but bmw less expensive over mercedes depends on the models and where it was made for example like bmw x series made in usa so is less expensive compare 5xx or 7xx series
