Hey all, curious what we think. I was told by someone that Magnum only expects Eagles to last 400-500 rounds. Is there any truth to this? I dont think there is, but I'm curious if anyone has heard of these pistols being prone to breaking down the line.
Hey all, saw a similar post earlier and figured Id do a write up.
Been shopping for about a year casually looking for what I might want sometime soon. Finally in the position in my life where I can swing a decently nice car.
As the title says this is purely a fun car. Not for commuting. Id like to find something with relatively low miles and keep it nice. Budgeting 50k-60k. Curious what this sub will say.
Currently have 3 that I am primarily watching: 19+ ZL1 Camaro, F10 M5, Mk 8 Golf R.
Here is what I am looking for:
- Preferred V8. Open to other configurations but I'm really leaning in to a V8.
- Forced induction of some kind. Love the noise. Would really like a supercharged powerplant but won't complain either way.
- Well equipped. Wanting something with a good amount of features. Ventilated seats are huge on my list, as well as a reverse camera. Adaptive cruise would be nice but not super important.
- Manual strongly preferred. Open to auto but prefer manual, kinda depends on the model. In the F10 M5 I would honestly prefer a DCT (helps that my wife could drive it if its an auto).
- Reliable. This is kind of a no-brainer but would prefer it to be a stout platform. Id like to own the car for a long-long time, so something with decent dealer / parts support + being well engineered is almost a must (not interested in a Jaguar, for example).
These aren't necessarily strict "musts" (save for maybe reliability), but more a general idea of what Id like. I've considered Mopar but really dont like the stigma around them (plus I feel like Stellantis products are manufactured like fisher price toys). Open to have my mind changed though.
Appreciate any responses. Thanks everyone.
