Turbo + direct injection + T&T operating conditions + TRUE synthetic oil like amsoil signature series (even though it is rated for up to 40k kms normal and 24k kms severe) shouldn't be stretched beyond 10-12k kms especially for an L15B7 that is out of warranty. Now if the OLMS so happens to alert you at that period then awesome!
Btw: your mileage is pretty low for your vehicle's age. Looks like it will do well for many years to come

For this price I rather get a Macan or Velar yes.
I find these Volvos, overpriced IMO.

slacker, I share the same sentiments actually, $399k for an Accord 1.5T is absurd especially since it is subject to less taxes than the previous model. I suppose if you throw in a $303k Optima in the mix ($96k cheaper than an Accord despite subject to far more taxes), it doesn't help with the Accord's value for money factor. But with specific relation to the A4 1.4T @ $400k, which would you choose? The Accord is bigger and has more power. It will retain its resale value far better and would more than likely be more reliable and is backed by a better dealer. So only in that case, I would say Accord 1.5T > A4 1.4T
Personally, If I wanted a spacious sedan I would close my eyes and take a Mazda 6 which can be had for as low as $325k
In other news, It is my understanding that the 2020 Subaru Outback has arrived, priced at $559k

Honestly when I saw this post when the price of the 1.4 Q3 is what prompted me to go when I reached it was sold out and they said the A4 was available in the two packages premium and sport packageagent007 wrote:Ronsin, I think I need your negotiation skills for our next purchase. You got a good deal there and I hope it goes well for you for many more years to come.
4motion, well said bro. I like to be different and as such, that T5 R-Design appeals to me more than the X3 I saw.
I would say the Equinox is on the bigger side of the midsize crossover segment. It sits well with the Forester, Rav4, Xtrail and CRV. It's actually more spacious than the CX5, Tucson and Sportage imo.eliteauto wrote:any interior Equinox pics? How does the cargo area (seats up) compare to the CR-V?
