Look, I don’t disagree with you. But I think this applies to older cars. The F0whatever is too new for these lessons to have been learned yet. If you’re talking Audi B5, BMW e46, then of course.

Why do you think BMW spent all that money just to make the car weak? It’s not some consipiracy, they’re balancing fuel efficiency, power output and longetivity, and this is what they came up with. They have knowledgeable tuners there as well, along with an enormous amount of resources. Tuning shops do not have that.…

Just about the only thing the e90 lacks is looks, but the 3 series was never some tour de force of aesthetics anyway.

Except the e46, which is garbage.

I’ve never driven an e90 but the f30 I drove did indeed seem pretty soulless, like an upscale Ford Fusion. Not a bad thing, but not really what I’m looking for. Really catering to people who play it very safe when it comes to cars.

You’d probably know more about it than me. I has a 328xi loaner for a day and found the engine very volkwageny. Sure it’s powerful, but it doesn’t have the smoothness and overall “nice” feeling of the 6.

Why is that the other choice? Get an older 3 series that was well maintained. They don’t fall apart.

Just get a 335, modding these modern engines is gonna both void the warranty and make it act weird and not last nearly as long.

I kind of feel like I’d always be kicking myself for not getting a 328 instead. 180hp is pretty meager in modern times. Plus they both have a crappy four cylinder anyway. You can. Get an e90 with a six instead and you’ll get a more satisfying engine. I guess it won’t have a warranty, but it’s not like those are free…

It’s amazing to read how bloodthirsty liberals on here have gotten. They want her executed! And Snowden too! Useful idiots, all of them! Why yes, I believe in uniform healthcare, but I’m also an unhinged nationalist! No I don’t see any contradiction in my beliefs at all!

It hasn’t been “shown” as such. Except if you’re desperately wishing for it to be.

Gotta love how modern liberals sound like neoconservatives from the 2000s.

Uh, you’re the one who replied to my comment, dillweed.

It’s not about looking worse, it’s about what’s effective. Sure they may be no harm, but it’s also probably ineffective. There is no evidence to show that racists or neo-nazis won Trump the election. This is passing the buck and ignoring reality. How did 27% of latinos vote for him? How did any of them vote for him if…

I’m not bitching about recounts so much as the ineffectual actions of the dems that led to the biggest election upset in living memory. And as for why I’m addressing you, you’re the one who uses “we” when talking about what the democrats do, so either you’re in the party leadership or you’ve decided to hitch your…

So you’re saying that them pressuring him to make a statement accepting the result (“if I win” were his words, I think), knowing that he has no problem contradicting himself in the same speech would have prevented sedition? How? And also, how’d that work out? You really haven’t been giving us good results lately.

The democrats shot themselves in the foot by pushing him to “accept the results” when everyone thought Clinton would win, and being more concerned with paying for a burned down republican office than combating the widespread voter disenfranchisement in the very states that swung the election. Their obsession with…

And yet there were more Jewish people in the upper echelons of government and academia than in the U.S. But I guess it’s more about optics.

The sports car might not go extinct, but the cheap sports car will. The Miata is maybe the last one left that’s not a 50 grand plus roadster, but the other side of the coin is that cars like this have a quick expiration date as their technology quickly becomes obsolete and you’re left with a so-so driving experience…

Better still, buy a convertible, since no one wants one in the winter.
