steve320d Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 I like the look from the front. But from the side view the bonnet seems too long to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob- Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 How long before this bit starts flapping off when you open the back door? Used to wind me right up on my 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VeinAST Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Not much difference from the E90. More of a faceilift imo than a new model!! Will wait for the coupe/M3 before I properly decide I'm against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think the writer understands the benefit of a straight 6 and is looking at it from noise and power, which is wrong. Inline 6'ers are about smoothness. The smoothest engine configuration out there. Edited February 16, 2012 by Matt_330CI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_330CI Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Not for me, it's got two many doors. I agree, but if you work on the basis that the 4 door looks good, think how good the Coupe and Convertible will look Edited February 20, 2012 by Matt_330CI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaijiniji Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 The interiors of the e90 onwards are just horrible I know one of the interior designers for BMW and he said that the E46 was by far and away the best. Am I the only one that thinks the new 3 looks a little... snooty without the M guise? Matt_S 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Lam Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 I'm not too sure on the Steering wheel, looks a little too VW for my liking. I like it though, though I still prefer my E46 Sport Loon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boylin Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 I drove a 335i around Pembrey Circuit on Thursday at a track day. It's quick enough but the gearbox is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Mark Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Nice looking car, but when are they gonna stop making every new generation of "series" fatter and larger and heavier than the last ??? I mean ffs that car is probably the same size as an E39, and the E92 looks bigger in fact, not actually looked into exact measurements but they all seem to be getting porkier with each revision. The new 5 is probably the same size as an E38 as well !! I know it's not BMW exclusively, but you compare the idea behind the original 3er to where it is now ??? not saying the cars are bad just that the brand has obscured and diluted the "series" slightly ?
