[QUOTE="rattlesnake1982, post: 625378, member: 25348"] Bro Merced88, dont think too much and too long.U might end up not buying a car at all...! Then it will be too late, once the last batches of E90 have all been taken up... The new F30 I heard lots of people say handling not as good as E90, due to the very light steering and soft suspension. Even my friend, who is also an SA in Quill hates the F30 and prefers the E90, unless later down the years the MSport Version comes out...But it had 8 speed transmission, so it translates to smoother acceleration and better FC than our E90... But I still prefer E90 looks cos more sporty and looks less uncle than F30....Mine also has 5 years/100000km BSRI, 2 years parts warranty, similar to Jwah's. Bought at a bargain price at RM220k plus for a preregistered car at Quill (mileage only 136km!). The new F30 will be circa Rm260k BSRI onli 3 years/ 60000km... No GPS for I-Drive, onli basic radio...Ours have full specs I-Drive (last batch 0f 2011) with GPS and everything Do u know that the 320d with powerkit and plus vector (a tuning box) century sprint can achieve 6.4s (0-100km/hr) if you really floored it all the way from standstill. I have personally tried it and its true... May be if I perfect the launching skills might achieve shorter time...! Thats BMW 335i or 535i territory! Other cheaper japanese cars that can achieve that will be civic type r or Mazda MPS but they are FWD cars, with horrible FC! The RWD handling of the E90 chassis is superb for a sports sedan with practical 4 doors and a boot. (dont compare la with other out and out sports cars like GTR, M3, RS5, porsche, Ferrari, lamborghini etc). Plus its FC is as good as a japanese 1.3 cc car. Even my wife's toyota vios has poorer FC. Maintenance wise, heck even I have to fork out RM300 to RM400 for the vios service few months back, change oil, alignment etc..Vios also has problems lar..No car is totally perfect...Vios front left tyre always seem to lari its alignment dont know y, according to many vios owners. The onli cons about 320d Msport is its slightly firm suspension (slightly uncomfortable for passengers when u tekan, but more shiok to the driver!) and out of breath at top speed end (230km/hr plus)...
