Hello all, I am interested to know more about the continental, i am planing to buy a 2009, and was wandering what was the biggest problems i could encounter and how much they cost, from the air/pneumatic suspension to the turbo.
How much cost tires and brakes?
Thank you very much.

 

Cost is high-ish per se as you'd expect for a $225k car. Figure anywhere from $1000 to upwards of $5000 a year depending on what goes wrong and service. Tires are only $1400, get the Mich Pilot Super Sport as they are far better than the Pirelli P Zero. Brakes are only $900 for front pads inc labor, perhaps $400 for rear pads. Rotors are expensive, i forget the exact $$$$. Just plan on keeping $5000 in reserves at all times and you should generally be ok.

Remember to ALWAYS keep the battery charged, so get a CTEK battery tender. Get to be friends with your local independent service center, as good once can be very helpful and cost less than dealership.

 

Thanks a lot, for all the infos. yes i will got a car charger i already do have a ctek for a rapide.
