What would be your other car after 3rd series?

Ray · 10-25-2006, 01:56 AM

I would pick the 550i, but I heard the M45 offers a really good value.

younghov85 · 10-25-2006, 07:41 AM

FX35, M35 or G35. Maybe another BMW im not sure? If it will be a BMW it will be slightly used.

emos325 · 10-25-2006, 09:37 AM

If price is no option

A gulf orange McLaren F1 with orange and black interior,black rims, and just to fuck with the bugatti i'd get quad turbos and sho the SOB BMW POWER HAS NO COMPETITION!!! it seats 3 so strap the other 2 on top. LOL nah you should go with a 335i sedan or a 550. they handle they look great and well they're BMWs

Robin_NL · 10-25-2006, 11:07 AM

E90/92 M3

Or 997GT3(RS) but way too expensive...

I need to seat 4 people and a big dog.

So, no small cars. I have one already.

This is so true. We can't use our 330 on so many accasions.

TwiBlueG35 · 10-29-2006, 10:32 PM

550i or 530i.

Carnage · 10-29-2006, 10:37 PM

That's easy, it's the ultimate M vehicle, an M1 tank.

Sure it will only go 40 MPH but anything that tries to outrun me gets a 120MM round in its ass.

Greeney · 10-29-2006, 11:24 PM

Somthing bigger, a 5er (550i! M5?)

ALPINE6SPD · 10-30-2006, 09:25 AM

335i sedan or coupe

ABR · 11-13-2006, 01:20 PM

I've test drove 550 and 335(just for fun) couple days ago.

The 550 is out for sure. Inside everything is super confortable and engine has good power, but general feeling was that I'm driving luxury cruiser. Can't really say what is wrong, but car didn't feel right after my 330i.

Shifting to 335i sedan (sport package) just added insult to the injury. The difference in feeling is huge, which come to a big surprise to me as I expected a lot from v8.

Now I will wait for new X5 to get into showroom and check in that departement. If I can't get as nible car as my 330i, at least, I can get 7 seat capacity....

It's gonna be even worse with the X5! What else do you expect from a heavier 4 by 4??

DILLIGAF · 11-13-2006, 01:33 PM

I'd be leaning to an X5

I agree 100%. The 330i could be my sport car and X5 just family car. I wouldn't even bother to try 4.8i.... I have 4 people and dog to move

CnoteMD · 11-13-2006, 01:53 PM

Probably within the next year or so, my wife wants to trade in her Volvo S60 2.4T for a BMW 5 series. She really likes the looks of the M5 but doesn't want a manual transmission (even if its SMG). I figure by then we can decide between the 550i or 535i. We will definitely add the sport package and possibly the M bodykit and M5 wheels.
