I am planing to buy a new car. Which of these are better relatively speaking in terms of privacy, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, or Audi? I can't buy old used cars. I have to buy a new car. I like new safety features but I don't want privacy invasive features, or subscription services.

Avoid BMW then.

Also, depending on the location they can be unreliable (US higher end models at least).

A coworker bought one with 60k miles for about 30k (included 100k extended warranty). He has a Toyota now. I believe the beamer was considered a total dud around 110k due to electrical issues.
