Do you think it's a bad idea to buy this car when it FIRST comes out?

^What model do you drive?

2009 328xi

I know it's an isolated case, but I haven't spent one dollar other than gas. Dealer even replaced the wiper blades for no charge when I took it in for the last oil change and checkup.

I love the Sedans of that model. More and more BMW has been catching my eye. A 2007-2009 335i seems like it would be perfect for me. Payments would be a bitch though. Lol.

i actually went to the bmw dealership today, a big one at that, to test drive a standard 135i... didnt have any in stock... was disappointed to say the least

Unless you have +80k, you shouldn't have any real issues. My mom's accord has 160k and nothing but a new motor mount so far. It does burn a little oil though.

I have thought about a 135I as well. Seems too.......cute.

i know, that's my only problem with it lol
which makes me want the wider bodied 1 series m coupe... the stance just gets rid of the cuteness for hotness

got 45k? I'm looking for a turbo brz/frs for 33 or less. Eat bmw's all day.

45K?

For that much I could get a 2010 330 and still have money left over.

Yeah, but the 1m would beat the 330 easily. F' a beamer. I'd rather have a IS350 or a g37. 2gr is a great engine. I've been half tempted to drop the camry version in my mr2.

[ej25ti]

compared with the 135i, at 39k... the 45 is more than worth it
the brakes, seats, wheels, widebody, and suspension alone
not to mention the huge of rarity which will be added in the future

Good point. I just don't like the 1 Series enough.

Now If I could just walk into the stealership and take my pick.

The high-revving 4.4 liter V8 unit with M TwinPower Turbo technology delivers a total of 560 HP at 6,000 – 7,000 rpm and a peak torque of 502 lb-ft between 1,500 and 5,750 rpm. The rev limiter intervenes at 7,200 rpm. With this impressive output under the hood, the new M5 will sprint from 0 to 60 mph in in 4.4 seconds, to 124 mph in 13.0 seconds, while top speed is limited to 155 mph. But once you have removed the limiter you will enjoy a speed of up to 190 mph.

I need a better job.
