Yessssiir, i was tired of fellow fanatics trying to look down upon 320i's.. Now it comes with a small turbo... :thumbs:

 

[Jakkals_F30]

Good thing is the turbo part cause we suffer with NA cars up here... Including my 323i... feels really really lazy

Do you need me to call my mother in law to help you get it to go faster?? :rollsmile:

 

[UpNcOmiNg!]

Yeah, also thinking of going to BMW!
I hear the 335i is magnificent, feels quicker and more balanced then before!

Really wouldnt mind 1 of these! So so good looking!

 

[Jakkals_F30]

With that besem behind me..... mmmm my car would get a tri turbo conversion with a set of wings and stealth technology to try get away...

Daai besem is 'n bliksem :biglol:

Wait until you see in the metal. I saw one at our local dealer on Wednesday and it looks awesome, although I couldn't see it up close as it was in the workshop. They just unloaded it and was going through all the checks ect.

I have this idea the new three is not that epic except for the 335i. All the reviews I have seen and read so far is that the 328i (which seems to be the testing model) is calm, comfortable and restrained :thumbdo:

Also they say when you compare the power delivery and feel of the 180kw to that of say an Audi S3 it lacks any sort of urgency and punch.

Not really what I want from my car unless I buy a Merc. It will be cool if allot of forum members can go test drive it and give their views.

Every mag that tested it overseas raved abt the 328i, it beat the A4 3.0l and C350 Merc in every test!!
leave the S3 to the 135i's.....:=):

i agree the s3 is a different kind of vehicle all together, which the 135i dominates, + i've only heard good things about the 328. and with software, hehe, is going to be a silent assassin! :rollsmile:

A family saloon 328i compared to a high performance hatch S3 :thumbdo:

Waiting to see what the coupe will look like... I've never owned a car with 4 doors come to think of it.

I reckon it'll be a belter in the look department.

Great thing about this shape is that is an evolution more than anything of the e9x... So our cars won't age as quickly. :rollsmile:
