>Homologation car>Affordable>Good looks>Low maintenance>Handles like a race car>No one talks about itWhy? This seems like the dream car for enthusiasts, and highly collectible as well.
>>27828681rare and gutlessneat car though, I have driven one
>>27828681>bolt on coilovers, upgrade brakes and put some sticky tires onWow its nothing. You could do this with any shitbox to make it quick and uncomfy around turns
>>27828681Because a 4-cylinder in a RWD sport-luxury sedan is kind of meh. Such things generally call for the power and refinement a 6-cyl or more can bring. 4-cyl feels more right in a hot hatch but BMW doesn’t bring those to the U.S. for some dumb reason.
>140 ft lbs of torque>at the crank
>>278286812 minutes of research will tell you these bags of shit have fucking horrendous engine issues.
>>27828681I don't think they sold these in the United States
I now like BMWs
>>27828681>barely faster than 320i>still a 4 cylinder modern bmw>lmao parts costs
>>27829131This happens to be the main reason. A 325i is super easy to find, cheap, still very well balanced, comes with over 50 extra hp. Even pretty decent on fuel. Very popular in RCN, NLS, Nordschleife trackdays etc, the baltics also have a racing series for these cars>>27828681This thing ONLY existed to make the E90 a better touring car, it's (sadly) useless otherwise>the rare, mostly handmade engine unironically eats itself just like the M3 engines from that era>it's not just an N46 without valvetronic, the 320si engine has a unique block with bogger bore>comes with weird other shit like the Z4's shorter driveshaft, which allows the engine and transmission to move even further back to the firewall and more underside cladding, but none of this matters on the road>the facelifted 320i had the same power output without all these problems, could be specced with the same sports seats, suspension etcThe carbon fiber valvecover and those unique wheels are really nice though, look good on an E46 as well. So all those broken and parted out 320si are good for something after all
>>27828681what are you smoking?fucking retarded busridernever post again
>>27829451This hostility screams pajeet energy
>>27828681Or you can just get a 330i/328i with a proper bulletproof NA I6 and not a meme rare 4 cylinder.
>>27828715> 4-cyl feels more right in a hot hatch but BMW doesn’t bring those to the U.S.Yeah and BMW also puts I6s in those so there’s literally no point.
>>27828681Because the M3 and 335i m package exists.
>>27828681Πρὸς γνῶσιν καὶ συμμόρφωσιν,ἡ Ἑλληνικὴ πραγματικότης περὶ αύτοκινήτων δὲν συμβαδίζῃ μὲ πραγματικότητες ἄλλων κρατῶν ἐν τῇ Κοινοπολιτείᾳ ἢ ἐν τῇ Βορειοδυτικῇ Εὐρώπῃ. 2.000 cc ἢ 2.500 cc λογίζονται πολλὲς φορὲς ὡς μεσαῖες μηχανές καὶ ἄψυχες. Ἀναλόγως. Δὲν ἔχουν ὅλοι ληστρικὰ τέλη καὶ φόρους παγκοσμίως.
>>27829455Where I live in Mumbai Pajeets post like that
Get a 330i and coilovers, you are welcome
i kinda want to buy an e30 and drop one of these in it
all bangleshit should be crushed
>>27828681> Homologation car> rareOP seems like the type of person who would try to sell this for 60k because of these two things.Like those idiots trying to list mitsubishi delica's for 50k. "but it has a rare crystal lite roof!"
