Trade in my Acura RSX 2002, love the e90, I just prefer the manual transmission on the RSX... nobody makes them like Honda.

I KNOW, I KNOW. Expecting TWINS though. Try getting a double stroller, 2 carseats, baby bags, toys, etc... in a 2 door E46. And....it would destroy me seeing 2 kids destroy an M3

well, thats a damn good reason.

deutsch100 · 12-23-2005, 04:57 PM

Thanks MikeyMike and Ed

Yeah, of course seeing my 05 M3 go was hard, but honestly here in L.A., I am really, really enjoying having a Steptronic tranny again. I do miss all the oohs and aahs over the Interlagos Blue colour...it was AMAZING in the sun!! Oh well, a life without kids is a selfish life!!

Have a great Christmas!! This Board is just full of good peoples

Trading in 2004 Acura TL 6-speed/navigation

Ed_330i · 12-23-2005, 05:06 PM

dude, you had a Z8!!!

how is it!?

since you've had high powered cars, do you think that the 330i needs more power?

Dude, I still have a Z8 Alpina

Even here in L.A., the Z8 turns heads and creates questions and endless stares. It is one of the most fun cars to drive, and I have been blessed and fortunate to drive some pretty amazing cars!

I think the 330i is plenty powerful. Honestly, living here in Los Angeles, or in any other city in the US....when do any of us actually use all this insane hp? I think we need to think about our rapidly, dwindling oil supply, and focus more on efficiency than on hp. The Z8 Alpina has 400hp, and our G55 has almost 500hp.....and we rarely go over 75 mph. Hp is really just an image issue IMO

I sold my 1 year old C Class for the E90

Oh, you have a Z8 AND a G55? I take back my amazement at you trading in a M3 for a 330i. How much was the Alpina anyway?

Carl · 12-23-2005, 06:32 PM

2003 X5 for a E91

Sticker price on the Z8 Alpina was $140,000. 2 dealers in L.A. were asking $160,000. We drove up to NoCal, and bought ours for $130,000 @ Stevens Creek BMW. LOVE the Z8!!!

Why did you sell a new C Class for the E90? Were you plagued with Mercedes' electrical gremlins? Generally the C Class is one one Benze's least problematic cars. I had a 1999 C280 Sport, and to this day, it was probably the least trouble car I have ever had!
