Bought CL over Bimmer 3...and happy about it!

Hey Guys!

I just got my car this past weekend and loving it more everyday!..especially thinking how much money I saved not getting a Bimmer (although I had a Bimmer before).

I just keep thinking if I were to get a comparable 330 I'd have to spend 10K more huh? What about a 325...I think that would be 5K more huh?

Anyways, anyone go up against a 325 or 330...how do we do against those Bimmers?

cool-welcome to the board
no problem with the low-end bimmers
and for a little cash (much less than you saved), you can mod your car and really mess around

happy cl-ESSing!

I hope you're not implying the 330i is low end BMW...that car is a SOLID piece of machinery!

i think we can take the 330 autos preety easy but the manuals, if the driver is good, could beat an unmodded cl

Good choice, and welcome. Do headers for sure with the big dollars you saved and go beemer hunting.Only the 330 will give you a run, and only if it's a manual.
