Bunch of pussies on the BMW forum whining about how ugly our car is

It's not like we pick on them. Shit, we paid $10-$15k less and blow them away on the street. They are just spiteful and bitter I suppose, but probably not representative of the majority of 3-series owners, I know many that are cool.

"Oh, the Acura CL is so long and ugly and bland. If only it were as cool as my $45,000 3-series! Ouch, I chipped a nail typing this! Shoot!"

they got to have something to bitch about . I mean I would be bitching too if I paid an extra $10,000 for a car with less equipment. Dont get me wrong , I love the bimmer, but for the money the CL has to be the best car on this planet.
maybe they dont like the shape, good that just means I will be seeing less CL's like mine on the road

The problem with the 3 series is that there are about 10 million of them on the streets. It used to be a pretty car, but how can you love something that you see every 15-odd seconds? And, why not change the 330 even a little bit? The car looks exactly the same as the 328 it replaced. Plus, BMW gives excellent lease rates on the 3 series just to get them out on the road. There are some BMWs I would love to own--I think the M5 is about the ultimate car.

First, the only thing BMW owners have seen of a CLS is the rear of my car. And wtf are people talking about, we never bash BMW, we bash the IS300. They are just pissed that they payed 45 g's on a car that does not preform that well. A ittle food for thought, a new 330ci w/ nav and preemium package.(no sport) costs about 50$. no joke, those cars are way over priced. And theirs is not a touch screen for the nav. by the way, acura just won the award for best nav system out right now. That is all.

Which award is this? Also, are you sure it's not a touch screen on the 330?

Don't see where you are getting $50K for a almost loaded 330Ci. If you fully load a 330Ci you are at about $44,000. Still a lot of money, but no where near M3 prices that should easily surpass $50K with all of the demand. I love my CL-S and could care less what BMW drivers say. It's my car, my choice, end of story. . .

Im gonna close this, because the topic line is a bit innapropriate.

Exploit the fact that I dont have a cuss filter turned on by keeping the offensive language strictly in message bodies (where viewing is voluntary)... not topic lines.

People browse this forum with their kids boys!

Also, ive bee wasting a ton of time trying to get rid of asshole trolls... lets not provoke them, mmmm'kay?

I like BMWs, especially the M3 and M5. But they are all overpriced. Maybe I'd buy one if I had money to throw away. I don't think BMWs hold their value as well as japanese cars, either.

Lightbulb Lets review

I think new BMW Launch has more than made up for the price of these cars now. I have to give the new 335ci props on design and specs. I think Acura has done well on most of its line up. I'm just wondering what happened with the RL its a major let down. I love Acura too, but I just dont see them catching up to Lexus much less BMW and Mercedes.
