[QUOTE="M3ac, post: 465925, member: 21378"] Bro, is your e90 325 a pre-LCI model? ie. prior to year 2008? If so, apparently the coils overs, suspensions are a tad bid sitiffer and the first generation RFT's does contribute to the harhness as well. Go and try the LCI e90 325i M Sports, its is way way more accomodating without comprimising the handling. Plus, the new 2nd generation RFT's Bridgestone Potenza RE050 (Made in Poland) ones are rather comfortable for a performance staggerred tyres setting (Front 225/40 18 Rear 255/35 18) I have not done a drag race for both cars, but definitely the e60 will be a tad slower. And for the sheer size of the e60, its a little soft as compared to the e90. Having said that, both are very nice cars to drive. But if space is a main criteria, then the e60 is the winner (plus it comes with active steering and Heads Up Dsiplay (HUD) - quite cool. But since it has active steering, the feel can't be compared to the e90 325i. So...if space is not a main criteria, then the e90 is still the UDM to drive and maybe you can consider changing to the new M-SPorts suspension and new RFT's.... do consider... :) [/QUOTE]
