Title: What about the 3-series? B.M.W
Post by: Admin on January 18, 2009, 06:40:18 PM

What about the 3-series?

 
The other main competitor that should have been here is the BMW 325i, for it also has six-cylinder performance (inline-six, though), rear-wheel-drive, package to match and a B3.3m price tag to boot.



But it isn't here because a facelift is just around the corner. And Motoring has heard from top executives of BMW Thailand that six-pot power would be discontinued, leaving the floor to the Lexus IS250 and Mercedes C230 both of which will be around for at least another three years.

When all three cars met in a showdown three years ago, the 325i came second after the IS250.
The Bimmer was the best car to drive, but had a rather uncomfortable ride on Thai roads and came with a bland package inside and out.

I miss my 330Coupe, it was faster than my brothers  XK8!  runningdog
Not too good over the Thai potholes though, so I'll stick to my truck
