it's about that time... searching for another car...
 

my current bmw lease is about up (5 months) and i've started to look...

i test drove the latest design of the new 3 series... your thoughts? this car was a 328i sport with all options...

i would select a 328 sport, white with the red leather and no nav... same 18" rims... most likely have to order to my specs.

while i understand this isn't a bmw forum... i respect your unbiased opinions. :D there are things i do and don't like about this car (as with every car).

its hard to go wrong with bmw's free maintenance program and warranty.

Have you checked out a Mercedes C300 as an alternative? I personally think its classier than the Bimmer.

What's the knob to the right of the shifter for?

Good choice Andrew.
My wife has a 2007 BMW 328i Hard Top Convertible (our other car)

Although it's an older model and not a "Sport" we love it and it performs well

~ it's what they call "i-drive"... a joy stick if you will for the nav, radio, climate, settings, etc.

i would most likely do the same items below to give it that subtle/personal touch…

~ 50% window tint
~ full clear bra
~ M3 rear lip spoiler
~ rotex gold dust free brake pads (front/rear)
~ debadged
~ painted front bumper reflectors
~ eibach pro-kit (to loose the fender gap)
~ etc...

I prefer the classic BMW look of both your current cars.

Re: it's about that time... searching for another car...
 

I pin you as more of a Z4 guy, personally... The new ones are gorgeous.

White with red, of course :cool:

Re: it's about that time... searching for another car...
 

I like the look of your current E92 better than the newer ones.

Also, IMHO it would be difficult to shell out Bimmer cash and not get the 335i :cool:

Re: it's about that time... searching for another car...
 

Very nice car all around and about the only thing I would consider at roughly the same price point would be the Audi A5 (which is a gorgeous looking car, IMHO) but maybe not quite as dynamic a driver as the 3.
