[QUOTE="wobbles, post: 561273, member: 24637"] Hi briantt, welcome to the forum. Please allow me to offer my humble 2 cents' worth, in addition to what the brothers here have shared. The 320i E90 is an OUTgoing generation, the C200 W204 is a present (recently face-lifted & improved) generation car. You must be aware that the new F30 (3-series) is coming out, and with it, many new technological advances - including Head Up Display etc. Very quickly, and almost overnight, your brand new E90 might no longer seem as 'new' when that happens. Objectively, the E90 only has 161hp, and produces 210Nm of torque. The W204 will push out 181hp and racks up 270Nm of torque. That's actually quite a significant difference in pulling power in the 2 base model 4 potters. Given those numbers, the E90 might end up feeling a little sluggish about town. Have you considered the 320d? For the same 2L engine, it provides a lot more torque at 380Nm! That's a real nifty city shifter! [/QUOTE]
