I'm looking for a new winter shit box and I'm about to pull the trigger on a 2007 BMW 328xi with 125k on the clock. The seller looks sketchy, but it does have a manual transmission.Tell me why it's a bad idea.
Ugly as shit
>>28703123Timeless look imo, especially compared to other shit from the same era. If you think E90's are ugly, what do you think looks good?
>>28703119Awd is the only drawback I see here. Wish mine had such low miles.
>>28703168How is AWD a drawback and not a boon?
>>28703172Extra maintenance, more weight. But it will be fast and graceful in the winter.
>>28703172Decreased suspension travel particularly in the front.My mom had a pre-LCI e90 330xi sedan and it was such a terrible car. Every time you hit a medium sized pothole it no joke felt like a grenade exploded.When she bought the car (it was less than 1 year old with around 3k miles) two wheels were already cracked.Other things that suck:Softtouch interior crumbles to shit on pre-LCIiDrive a shitUgly carImo its all the BMW bullshit with no redeeming qualities other than its cheap now. Which is not how you want to get in to BMWs. Buy a better looking car from the next or previous generation at least.
>>28703119>The seller looks sketchyNigger/Paki sketchy or dealer sketchy?
>>28703186>delusions of a ricelet stancelet slowfaglethttps://youtu.be/9d3MdqMFSmI?t=638>fag lives where it snows>owns a gay miata and gay wrx>wrx is TOO SLOW LOLThe recommendation?>"E90 335i xdrive"e46s require subframe reinforcement to be driven like a BMW, and the f30 is a piece of shitJust get an E28 M5, E38 750i, E39 530i, LCI E90 M3 Competition or N54 335i, F10 M5 Competition, W124, W126, W140, W201 already godsdamn
>>28703322F30 is better than F10. Words from a dealership service advisor.
>>28703325f30 was so shitty that M-Division had BMW redo the entire front end before they could make an M car from it LOL>gay eps>gay ipad dashShit's a fuckin narb, the E92 was the last amazing 3 Series, dynamically, and the F10 M5 Competition is the last great BMW
>but it does have a manual transmissionWhy is this a positive to you? Have you ever driven a manual BMW?
>>28703314Methony and her trailer trash of the month BF junk flipper sketchy.
>>28703524What's the beef with a manual BMW?
>>28703126>Timeless look
>>28704258she cute
>>28704228He can't afford one since manual bmws are taxed to fuck over the autos.
>>28704258>chubby cheeks>pig nose>FAS lip>cute
>>28703186>Every time you hit a medium sized pothole it no joke felt like a grenade exploded.That's more a consequence of E90s using runflats rather than the suspension.
>>28703119Unless you have a literal instant classic car, it's better to just drive it in the winter. Put snow tires on it if you're driving a Mustang and shit. The amount of money you dump into a winter beater isn't going to be worth how ever much you save into preserving your car. You can just buy a new car sooner without having to take car of a second car for years on end.
>>28704810Why not just move to where you don't need a "winter car?"
>>28704277They’re cheaper in my country because people can drive and appreciate that BMWs should be automatics >>28704228They’re all notchy shit. Americans worship them for some reason but they’ve not put a nice to use manual box in a car for thirty years
