325 Sports vs IS250 vs new C Class

[Steven7]

Are you talking about Oz or home now, beemerlover? Coz the 325i Sports is no longer available here for the moment.

Friend, BMW 325i is still on sales, only the BMW 325i is not available already~!!!

 

[Steven7]

Well, I was choosing between the E90 325i Sports and E92 323i a year plus ago and even now, I sometimes wonder if I should have opted for the 325i Sports which was cheaper by RM20k. The 325i Sports exudes distinction with the 18" rims, M bodykit and M everything and that i-drive with ensuing sat nav and the works! I think I can spot a 320i from a 325i Sports from quite a distance. There is nothing to stop Merc from kitting the C-Class like the C63 though to keep up.

Oh, has anyone seen the drawings of the new 2012 3-series designated the F30? It was featured in this month's CAR magazine and boy, oh boy, that looks really good!

Juan Powerblow, the 2012 3-Series will be a awesome car for sure:rock:~!!! in other hand, you said you are choosing between 325i and 323i last time, and finally you choose the 323i E92, after one year, what is in your heart, are you satisfied with your car:listen:~???

Err, not quite. I would have enjoyed the 325i Sports more. The E92 is nice but poorly specced. There are so much more toys in the 325i Sports and well, I can do with the extra 28 bhp. Sigh!

cheers

Friend, you own two of them:smokin:~??? seem like the BMW 325i sport is quite a interisting car, as I know a pre- register 325i sport is 245k-255k, right~??? I think this price for such a good car is resonable:rock:~!!!

Friend, did you do any tuning/modified on your E92:rock:~???

 

[Juan Powerblow]

Well Steven7, I had the use of an E90 325i for a month before I took delivery of my E92 so I know how the extra 28 bhp feels. It's not much to many and where the E92 is available in 323i and 325i guise, most have opted for the 323i cos they can't justify paying more for the 325i. I'm just a bit cranky and poisoned too much by E46F and power does matter a bit too much for me even though I drive like a school dad now.

I'm keen to explore tuning options for my E92. Any ideas?

We were speaking about u the other day. We need to do a round of power test with your car at KL-Putrajaya Highway. Recently, we have few rounds of power test with few of the E90 325i and 330i. But those are 2005 and 2006 engines except for mine which is 2007. I still remember the encounter both u and I had during HPC! So this time around, we should do one more round pf power test between yours, mine and the others ok ?

So I have heard! I suspect it's more than just your sprint booster! Maybe you're not telling us everything on what you did with your car, hahahaha! I take you on after I remap ECU ok! The last match we had was more or less a draw rite, before your new engine, hehehehehe!

I think it was an extra passenger in my car that contributes to "draw" result! hahaha...

Juan Powerblow, are you still using the 323i original spot rim~? i think if you change the sport rim to 335i sport rim your car will look great :rock:~! what is the colour for your E92~?

David Yong, seem like your 325i engine is very powerful, how many bhp on your new engine now~? what have you done for your car:listen:~???

I have changed to the 335i 18" rims and lowered with the M sports suspension from an E90 325i Sports. Yes, the car looks a lot nicer now.
