Time is nearing....
I'm almost at my graduation date and my 18th birthday, which brings me closer to getting a car. I think i narrowed my choices down to a 04 bmw 330i , a 04 TL, or a 04 G35 coupe. What car is better in overall performance and at the same time is a reliable car that will have little or no problems, while being cheaper to fix if there is one? What car would you choose if you had no TL and you could get it for free?

Also...What would be the price diffrence between the 3? Im planning to lease the car for 2-3 yrs. What are you paying for the TL (for those who lease it)?

My advice, call a few dealerships and have them run the same exact lease on the same car (i.e. 36 months, $0 down, 2004 TL 6MT Non-navi, 12K miles per year, etc...). Apples to apples and you'll be fine.

With that said, I would choose the G35 coupe if I were your age. It's hot, period. 4 doors vs. 2 doors is a no brainer when you're young and don't have children of your own or clients to take out to dinner.
Plus, if you're leasing the car, why do you care if one will be cheaper over the next to fix? Everything will be covered bumper to bumper for the lease term you're considering.

I would have chosen the G35 coupe but I am planning to keep the TL for 8+ years and in that time the 4 doors will be a must when starting a family. If I were 18, I would take the G35 coupe out of those three.
Maybe looking at the 330cd, M3, and S4.

G35 coupe if i was and in your situation. i actually was thinking about getting it but the rwd turned me away because it does snow here in the winter and i have to use it for work. but if i was 18 and in college again the coupe just looks alot hotter and you will have a fun time driving it around as it will probably handle better than the TL. as for value i think the TL offers the best deal.
