I would've chosen a 330 ci over 330 i. For some reason, I don't like how the sedan is taller. The couple is more sleek.

Black... hmmm.. good luck on maintenance. You'll have to wash it every weekend, if not every day!

I would get the 330 Ci as well. I personal think that the back seat is too small with the seden anywayz.

I would get the Topez Blue on Tan, but that's me....

I like your choice. I too am thinking about a fully loaded BMW 330i too in Silver with Sports & Premium Package as well as other bells & whistles.

Just a matter of time. The 5 series is also sweet too, but much more expensive.

You can tell this guy wants a BMW 330i bad. :-) Every car is going to have problems, even our TLs, but overall BMWs are solid and a hot car too.

By the way the poster on this board never responded, so I figure he is just a TROLL trying to get us all riled up. He can't even afford a BMW or TL, so someone should take this thread out - he's wasting our time here.

Redhot: it was black, so he's going to spend a lot of time washing it. It's a BMW so it's going to spend a lot of time in the shop, that's all.

There's no comparison between BMW and Acura reliability. I don't think reliability is a priority to BMW buyers...

Reliability is a big concern for me. I have read more complaint post's on honda-acura.net that any of the other Foreign auto manufactures bulletin boards. I still love Acura's but I had my share of warranty repairs on my TL.

Had a '99 TL w/Navigation system,factory chrome wheels,kit,deck spoiler, burlwood shift knob and V-1 radar detector before it was totalled due to flood damage.

Now I have a '01 BMW X5

Alpine Mobile Multimedia Station (TV/VCR/NAVI)
19" Mille Miglia Evo 255/50 front 285/45 rear.

The X5 is a nice upgrade to the TL. Do you have the 3.0 or 4.0 version?

X5 is sweet either way, I want a 530i with Sports/Premium Package.

I hear the X5 is built in the South Carolina plants, so any reliability problems? Just like the TL being built in the Ohio Plant.

a 330, man u need to give up on the bimmers, they are overpriced yupi mobiles and there are far too many of them in south florida and i am sick of sein them all over the place. Personally i would have went with the tl if u wanted 4 doors, or cl-s if u want 2 doors. ut your choice, i guess, good luck with it.
