Do we even know what the F10 will look like? I mean, we've seen the F10 Gran Turismo, but it still said "concept" in front of it. Hopefully they work a little bit more on refining some of the weird angles on it. I know looks are subjective, but it's best you wait and see what the final product will look like before planning ahead for it.


I would say getting the 550 after owning a 525 is an awesome decision, but I've found myself really pushing the E39 on alot of people lately that were looking for new cars, and especially the E39 M5 which is surprisingly cheap. I'm assuming you'll sell the 550 if you decide to get the F10, so why not go a little cheaper and still get a lot more on an older model?

+1000, Thats my father's first rule. Never buy first year model. let them test their first cars on other customers then when they have fixed the minor bugs/problems, buy the second or 3rd wave

The 335 is a better deal than the 135.

Bu the 135i is smaller and zippier than the 3er, I would assume. Probably a bit better on gas and may even handle a bit better too. Sure, you got no backseat, but...

135 is really fast but would be way too small for my needs. That is no placeholder for the 5 Series.

Yo No,

Hopefully you end up in another bimmer, if not, you're welcome to ride shotgun with me, a la Mt. Wilson, and take pics of everyone else! If you go with a 335...it is a freakin' go-cart. In one year I've accumulated 2pts on my record...first time in my life I've accumulated ANY points! Good luck!
