My 6er is jet black. Freaking shiny and solid color.
But you really need to take care of it. Else you will see lotsa swirl marks under the sun.

any advise on taking care of it? my car going in for respray next week.. decided to respray because half of my front bumper is stone chips and my bonnet's paint is blurring away

IMO, Zaino bros works best on black cars..
Only shampoo your car once a week.
Get a feather duster to sweep it before you wash the car.
Get the Meguier magic cloth to dry your car, just flip it on the car and pull. No wiping action required.

jet black cars... very hard to up keep man... no matter wat.. sure will get swirl marks one... small lit ones...
after re-spray...maybe u can go to Spa 4 cars, and let them seal it for u... then subsequently u just go back for re-coating...

Any one here test drive the E92 3 series coupe? Thinking of selling my E60 520i and switch to E92 325Ci. Any advice whether this is a wise move?

I saw someone test drove it at PML alexandra rd last week. If i'm not wrong it's steel gray. Looks pretty nice from far.

The new Audi TT is available for test drive too.

I had test driven it 2 weeks ago, its a 325 coupe, low-line, no i-drive, $185K, space grey, the brochure colour. Wonderful overall, good pulling power versus my 520i, sportily noisier, firmer ride, a totally different experience. Nice body curve, considerate seatbelt handover, 2+2, but very roomy in the rear for a 2-door. I missed my Active Steering already when driving out of PML. On display is the high-line, $208K, similar to the 335 minus the engine.

Diagonally opposite selling the 335 a few Ks higher than PML's highline 325. 18" vs 17", with AS as a $3K option. And it was also willing to take in my car at $15K higher than what PML can offer.

Is it a wise move? My heart says yes

Hi tategoi,

Many thanks for the feedback. Who is diagonally opposite? Parallel importer? How much they selling the 325 with idrive and active steering opposite and the 335? Do they provide the same warranty as PML and how about servicing? My main concern buying from parallel importer is after sale service.
