they are all nice but different. MB is a great comfortable driving car. Not as responsive. Fit and finish is best in the Porsche from what I see in my limited time already. Everyone has a Z06 corvette.( I didn t have a z06). The jury is out on which car is the most hassle free. One day, coolant leak ( not so good) on a cpo car.

Do not fret about the coolant tank. Those caps must be very tightly locked. Was yours? I never touch mine, and would not consider a 1/4" diff significant, although I would watch it.

Yea, I wouldn t worry if it wasn t only 200 miles or so on that 1/4 inch drop. I guess a head gasket leak or something serious would have other symptoms??

You bet. My money is that someone tinkered with the cap and did not tighten it properly. No need to remove the cap all the time.
