Hmmm......i kinda liked the 325i....plus it falls under the category of affordable, in BMW terms that means pleather, intead of real dead animal....and non cruise control..

But seriously, it came out ahead of all the other compact sport sedans in a recent C&D comparo, what the hell was so bad? The steering and the oversteer may be snow related if you know what i mean....

Matt sorry for the delay. I think you should sell them. I just found out that my wife "chipped" the right front rim yesterday during the snow. I ain't mad at her cuz I'm the one that wanted her to drive the FWD car in the snow. Sorry Matt! The AV3's look phat!

I don't know how I should feel! I got a call from the GM of the BMW dealer cuz he was aware that I got a new car with a broken thermostat. He called to say sorry and that he was giving me $500 worth of accessories for my trouble. Now that's customer service. Can't wait to buy another BMW - gotta love the service.

Oh, BTW, my wife and I went out in her car today and this TL was flying and ofcourse now that she (wife) owns a freakin Bimmer told me to race that TL. Unfortunately I had to beat up on one of my TL brothers today. He hung well til about 40 then the 540i really pulled away. He shoulda got h/i/e, then it may have been closer.

Post Sorry Ass BMW!

As you all know, just got the 540i and the engine temp gauge was already going. I thought the 5 series were made in Germany. Anyway, they gave me a Z3 3.0 to drive. Oh, don't race this car if you see it cuz it's fast. The Z3 had 36 miles and I left the dealer and within a 1/4 mile the check engine light came on...WTF! I go back and then they put me in a new 325i (POS), don't ever buy this car boys and girls! The steering is way too soft and it way oversteers and the seat is unconfortable.

Got my car back a day later, but I have to admit that BMW service is GREAT!!!!!

It snow a little here and my 540i (I had it cuz I was afraid to let my wife drive in the snow so I gave her my TL) sucks d*ck in the snow. Man, I thought Corvettes were horrible in the snow, the 540i really sucks. I was scared pretty much the entire day. Thank God no accidents, but I was slippin' and sliddin' on every side road.

For those that have a BMW, be careful in the snow!
