A32 VQ30
- one of the most refined and balanced engine I have ever driven
- the cabin and trunk space is the BEST about this car (can comfortably ferry 5 adults)
- on overdrive I'll be doing 160km/h @ 3500 RPM and 140km/h @ 3000 RPM
- since the car is quite wide and lengthy, and knowing its a FWD, handling is just made for family drives
- soundproofing isn't that bad
- parts are abundant
- overall a very good family sedan with much comfort to offer
E34 M50TU
- M50TUB25 is a much more spirited engine compared to the VQ30, it growls, barks and bites sometime
- space is smaller compared to the A32 but relatively ample
- RWD, weight distribution and German handling is definitely superior to A32
- Soundproofing at its best if all rubber linings, weatherstrips, etc.. have been replaced
- Design is better and looks fierce (to me at least)
- Its older yet stylish
- Parts are harder to come by
- Overall its a dual purpose family sedan at dawn or a sports sedan at dusk
- & it's a BMW ...hehe
Picking a choice? Being a brand fanatic, the E34 will be my choice but the A32 is still a fine Japanese car ..
nice....A32 was one of my fav back then. Never had the chance to own one.
Anyway your opinion was spot on!!
