[QUOTE="sweetpotato, post: 752219, member: 55958"] Hi all sifus! Im 29 years of age and recently got married. I'm looking at 2nd hand BMW cars and find it weird that the 5 series can be bought with less than RM150k (i.e 520i 2013 model or 520d for RM125k for a 2013 model). While I guess the price drop because of the new model? But is there anything I need to know before I venture into a 5 series? Some frends says it's like an "old man" car but I don't mind the look of it. On another hand, while I look at 3 series, it's smaller of course and it cost approx 130K (i.e for 328i 2013 model or 320i for 2015 model). This car is to be bought and shared with my wife and she dont mind either 5 series or 3 series either. Question is which one will hurt more on my wallet and which 5 or 3 series I should avoid? I have browsed through some of the postings but don't seem to find this comparison (5 vs 3) - but do correct me if I'm wrong. We prefer a car which is more all rounder, comfortable to sit and drive hence we consider the 5 series. Also read up that the G20 is launching somewhere end this year which may further hurt the car value if I get the 3 series instead. As for 5 series, I dont intend to go for 528 which comes with 3.0 - road tax too expensive). Hope some sifu's can assist. [/QUOTE]
