Driving a 320i

[Venda Boy]

TELL ME : what about 116i and 118i? Are they fast?

Actually , its very sad to drive a 335i or 135i while renting a bachelor flat.

People just :blab::blab::blab::blab::blab::blab::roflol:

Guys... this is getting old now. So what if you feel the E90 320i is underpowered? Others don't care and are more than happy with it. It really is just as simple as that.

I understand that some of you are trying to make a valid point, but it doesn't always come across that way and is even somewhat insulting.

Please can we just leave it be?

Geess Venda Boy give it a rest already, what does renting a flat and driing a fast car has to do with the topic,

Some people drive small engine cars and live in mansions and some drive fast cars and live in townships or even with their parents, so what??? who are we to determine how others should live their lives???

Live yours and stop comapring yourself!!!!:nonono::nonono::nonono:

Correct, whats the use of driving fast car while staying with parents?

Those who drive small car and having mansions are good role model.

And Who are we to dish up 320i?

Naah,
I need certain of my buttons pressed and the brand only doesn’t cut it which is why I stray on the other side of the fence as well.

You guys need to realise that everyone has an opinion and is welcome to voice that opinion whether its right or wrong.

If you dont agree with the opinion raised then dont respond. If you feel so strongly about it, then state your case and move on with your life.

This thread would probably not even exist if it wasnt for the reaction that it stirs. I drove a 320i for 3yrs and loved it.... so what, you dont see me crying about what the OP posted.

If this thread is closed at the request of a user, another will pop up with a similar or same title and will just carry on going.

At the end of the day opinions are like orgasms, your own is always more important.

I think thats where the issue come in. People were expecting the e90 to have an increase in power over the e46 as its expected for thing to progress over time.

Safety however took preference over the performance increase.

Also, the 320i LCI I drove was an Auto which I dont think suited the car.

I think any car that does 0-100 in over 8s is a lame excuse for a car i dont care what badge it has on the front...

why should you care what i think...

:roflol: Then what do you call the 90% of metal boxes with wheels on the road if they are just lame excuses for cars? And yours only became a full fledged car after you tuned it...
Is it really that unfathonable for you to believe that most road users are happy with doing 0-100 in 10s+? (Obviously money being the issue). Maybe you should get some driving tips from the toyota forum on how to live with slow cars and still stay a fanatic :fencelook:?

A good example, I can afford a 135i, now please call me silly for choosing a car that is much slower.... (Ok, please don't, I have low self esteem because I have a four cylinder engine) But at this stage of my life I cannot drive one. I will opt for a faster, more unpractical car when I go through my mid-life crysis.

I think I suspect what all the fluss is about. I don't recall that any of the 320i owners felt highly offended in the first thread about the 320i. They all voiced their opinions on why they love their cars. But everything went sideways (except the 320i :sorry when this kept on being an issue after perfectly valid reasons were given. I don't think they are pissed because people are calling their cars slow, they are pissed because others expect them to care, and even admit that they made the wrong choice...

Dont joke bru, my 320i can go sideways, i promise you and i can gladly show you that :thumbs::thumbs: :bravo:

Well like i said before, i love my 320i, if you love your E46 330i with 400000km on the clock then WOOHOO, good for you! i prefer to have motorplan, modern ,good looks and good fuel consumption.
the older car lover prefers something else, over this...

So what if you think a E90 320 is a slow car, then don't buy it. You wont see a guy with a M3 talking you down cause you drive a 323i, 320d or 330i or whatever. Different strokes for different folks. There is always someone who will think your car is slow, no matter what you drive, but they wont make a 20 page thread of it.

So leave the 320 ouens. So what if someone paid R380k for their 2000cc BMW's? Its their money, their choice, same way someone who will choose to drive a R50 000 BMW can do so freely, its his choice.

My point is we all fanatics, so next week what if the ouens start dissing 323i cars and their owners, next the 325i and so on. In the end, this forum will become a joke, cause here not only does Audi's VW's or whatever get dissed for whatever reasons, but BMW's too.

there seem to be allot of angry 320i drivers out there... coincidence?

If someone started a tread Ripping the e46 323i would i feel offended... hell no... wtf do i care if some people dont like my car and think its junk?

Is this thread some how an assault on the gentlemen vegetables of all the 320i drivers?

As stated before I don't drive a 320, I bought a E90 323i exclusive. I am just saying is stupid for people who claim to be fanatics to diss a car of their own brand, just cause they don't like it.

Its not about should or should people not be offended, its about the brand, fanatics of the brand, check at the top of this page it does not say BMW 323 and higher fanatics......... Ag .... nevermind:facepalm:

 

[Jakkals_F30]

Boys and girls...

Why don't we all take a step back and see this aint going nowhere as were the previous threads on 320i's...

If you drive a 116 your car cause you wanted it... 118 same story.

120 or 120d or 130i... what the heck ever you fancy at that time and drive at this specific point in time. if it cost you 30k or 40k or 500k for your car it's your problem. you bought it as it made the most sense to you and you had to decide beforehand if you wanted the car or not. if you didn't and you feel you bought the wrong car... your problem, either live with it or get another one.

Let's all now leave the 320i owners please. if you wanna give someone shit about a car pick me... mine is just 1 model above and it's a 323i

mine's a silver fridge so come if you wanna i don't give a shit if you don't like what i have but i like what i have..

Quit now with tormenting guys about a 320i. last time i checked it said BMW.

E30 E36 E46 E90 E whatever... it's a BMW and we all love our cars.

let's quit now and respect what each owner has and not break them down. BMW is a very very respectable car and any BMW and it's owner should be treated as such..

If you have a comment sit and think carefully about what you wanna say. If it's gonna sound harsh and get someone upset then rather keep quiet. If you don't have anything good to say about someone else or their property don't you think it's better to keep quiet then ?

Admins please step in here now cause this thread is also getting a bit much now.

 

[moranor@axis]

come on you have to looools at this thread...

oh no the peoples on the internets were nasty about my car come on...

everyone is getting all upity about nothing...

we better close this thread and ban anyone who talks badly about the 320i or the world as we know it will end...
