My Ride: carbonized MB coupe
agree that the new F10 is rather boring, 5GT is now driven by fat bizmen and missus,
X5 is boring...
only the 1 series coupe and the X6 is really nice, Z4 in black like a batmobile and they are just ripe for modding.
the current new 3 looks like a cucumber at the front........but the new one will be nice,
wait for that, it will be explosively good.
saying that i think the BMWs are still much better value than the Lexus, have you seen the GS300?
it looks like sxxt and you can't even get your toes under the front seats when u sit in the rear.
than the 5 looks better than the E class 4 door......have u seen the Accord? looks like it melted.....
seen the even more boring cloned Audis??????
and have u seen the new Honda Stepwagon, what happened there????????
it is a seriously bad and ugly looking car, in fact the whole HK Honda range is repulsive,
i heard their sales are crap.
BMW- in the end its not a bad range when you compare it around.

Are you coming this Fri? If so, would you please pass me the wax? I suggest not leave it at AK as he is busy in moving to new shop. Easy to lost it during the move.

I like the x6, drives well but its a good looking x5 essentially so a premium for good look. I heard the 135 is a really fast car not had the chance to try one so I still like my e90 best in terms of feel and handling.

I recalled there was a thread on this. interestingly, the n52 engine w valvetronics should make this butterfly valve redundant but it was retained for engine start up for some reason I believe. in fact if this could be removed completely, you would get better airflow all together.

boring boring boring, but they sell loads, don't forget we are the nutcases and extreme
BMW driving appreciation gang, i guess they have a master plan to sell loads more to uninitiated
new buyers and to pass the R&D costs for exciting stuff to AC,Hamann and co......
in the end we will vote with our next purchase, eg.Will,ET, Moi
go for the new 6 or Z4 if u want a sports car/coupe, don't forget the new F10 5 is not a sports car, it's a sports saloon!!
hey there is a S2000 at the fanling car place, right next to a MRS.
