[QUOTE="publicbus, post: 187914, member: 4310"] What is road tax for below 3000 cc compared to the maintenance of a bimmer. I switched from a Jap car to a bimmer in Nov. Bought an e39 523 year 2000 and although it is a 2.5 l engine I still find it dragging. Could not adjust to this drag. Tried a friend's e39 525 year 2003 (newer engine M54) and another friend's e39 528 year 2000 and started to bang my heads against the wall everyday. Both friends e39 are much better in acceleration power. So different !!! Anyway, have to live with this bimmer for the time being and at the same time looking at ways to improve on its performance. So buddy, if can afford, and if you still want to go for a 5 series, go for the bigger cc. Not sure about the 3 series though. May be the 318 with 2 l engine is suffice for a good acceleration... ? Have to get feedback from our 3-er brothers. Dont be scared lah ... we have so many bros in here to help .... just like I got when I was running around solving my bimmer problems. Yea, the 5 serious is more spacious. Welcome lah to the world of bimmer. Come come come ...... *** racun-ning **** :D :D :D :D :D [/QUOTE]
