[QUOTE="ken, post: 374731, member: 6135"] have to echo what e46f said ... very well said n explained. suspension on std mode is bit soft for my liking esp on highway drive. with sport mode on, cars lowers by 15mm n feel much better. however, on bumpier road in the housing areas n across bumps, the std mode seems ok. power wise, i think its comparable to 325. at higher rpm, 4.5k to redline, v6 does produce a nice screaming sound. steering definitely lighter than e90 but its less engaging for spirited driving. normal town use, ideal. easy n comfort to drive. design n shape is individual preference. sportiness looses out to 325 sports with nice looking body kit n 18" wheels. c class has a full size spare tyre. rear leg n headroom seems more compared to e90 gadgets, poor compared to 325 sports. no GPS n all the i drive features. unless opt for the adv spec which costs rm15k extra compared to std c230 overall value for $, i think 325 sports is better with all BSRI n current BMW promotions n discounts. unless one have tried e90, then only should consider the c class. another way i would describe it, bmw = ultimate driving machine, merc = ultimate being driven on just my 2 cents.
