Step on a LEGO brick too.

 

Someone say LEGO?

 

Here, Anil...have a LEGO wagon...

 

whoa, check out the aero on that beotch

 

Still looks better than most cars on the market.

 

pretty!

 

How much?

 

Love that blue!

 

Funny since i just went to price one out on bmwusa.com

Mine came out to $49k for a 328d. Didnt even include navi.

 

Love the diesel!

 

Always enjoyed the 318d Touring.

 

I want a 535d Touring dammit! Just built a 328d, M Sport, cold weather, no nav with leather= $51,025. They are nice looking cars but there is no comparison between the 3 & 5 comfort-wise. My wife has a 335x Drive sedan that is nice but it's just a bit small for me. I kinda feel like I'm sitting in the back seat (somewhat behind B pillar).

 

The 328d (wagon or sedan) is one of many cars on my "next car list."
Hoping for later in the year and get a low mileage lease turn-in

 

What?! Man, F that noise from BMW.

 

@ blue 3wagon.

 

Love that black grille on the 328d.

Yeah, for at or a few grand more, I'll take the Allroad.

 

Amen. For that kind of money I would expect a 335 Touring, not a 328

 

There is usually premium for the diesel line?

 

Sorry, I wasn't pointing that comment directly at the diesel variant. ~$50k with options for a 328 doesn't sit right with me regardless of the fuel it requires

And here in the States, the diesel is only $1500 more than the regular gas version.

 

BMW's pricing is getting out of hand.

 

Get your people under control, Tim

 

Not my peeps. I only buy used from those yahoos.

 

His big-money check book is only used at Hyundai dealers.

 

 

Damn you!

Actually, if you recall, I got the Hyundai used at a Porsche dealer.

I haven't bought a new car since my TL, and given my former business partner's stunt last year, it will be quite a while before I get another new car since my personal financial situation took quite the beating in 2013.

 

What's a Hyndai?

 

Fixed.

Go get a job!

 

I'm waiting for Morgan to "give me a job" :ghey:

Edit: Before we get banned...

 

Hey! Keep that in Morgan's thread.

 

That must've been one hell of a bait-and-switch

March 1st, be ready.

 

You ain't kidding.

 

Since you had both, do you think Hyundai is on par with Acura in terms of quality?

Figure I can ask that now since you dont have them anymore.

 

Yet, they continue to post some nice sales figures.

So, clearly, someone thinks it is affordable.

 

I wonder what percentage of luxury vehicles are bought compared to leased.

 

Well, *slaps on wacist hat*...that depends on how you wanna split the consumer demographics...

One ONE hand...the and the all BUY their cars. It's the white people who like leases.

 

I have a leased jetta.

 

No one on either side of my family has ever leased a car and we're white

 

Hyundai, in terms of the Genesis sedan - yes, at least equal to Acura. The interior was well done; especially the leather. The interior features were superior to Acura in several ways (heated and cooled seats, for example). I had a 4.6L V8 in mine and it was RWD, which makes the car just so much more interesting than anything Acura has had in its lineup in quite a while.

Two things I really didn't like about the Genesis (aside from it having no soul, as I've said before) - 1) the steering wheel just wasn't well done. It was skinny and the controls felt like they came out of an Elantra; And 2), the steering was simultaneously too heavy and numb at the same time. I felt like steering the car was too much work often times. At the same time, the feedback was strange.

Obviously, the Equus is head and shoulders above anything Acura offers. That being said, I remain convinced Hyundai needs to get the Genesis Coupe, the Genesis sedan and the Equus into their own brand. They need to not share space with Elantras, etc.


I think leases are a HUGE part of the BMW success story. People "own" these things for 3 years, making a payment they are comfortable with, pay nothing for maintenance, and then turn them back in. It has led to the creation of a significant CPO and extended service sales line (which allows people like me to buy them when they are still in pretty low on miles but with a good extended warranty in place).

 

My family doesn't lease. And we're flourescent white.


Like, adjust-the-white-balance-on-your-camera-before-taking-a-family-photo flourescent white.

 

Oh sure. Leave it to you to ruin my point.
