[QUOTE="kuntakinte, post: 585633, member: 15653"] Obviously, the sane thing to do is to get the f30 320d if one is prepared to lose 30-50k immediately when driven out the showroom. Whatever one says about ignoring depreciatio when it comes to cars, it's still a tough swallow for most of us whose money does not grow on trees. BMW cannibalizes their own resale value with the premium selection business model and heavily penalizes the heft of depreciation on new car owners. So, For those of us whose head (the bigger one) overrules the heart, then the last batches of e90 represents very good value at ard 210k+. Plonk in a powerkit with those savings, and even the new f30 320d engine output specs is no match for it. But based on bragging rights and traffic catwalks, the f30 will attract all wolf whistles. $270k vs $220k, heart vs head, decisions, decisions....., As for me, I m thoroughly enjoying my powerkitted e90 which is the perfect reply to KL road hoggers who hugs the lane and then speeds up when u try to overtake. I hv overtaken a merc c250 hogging the lane at 140-150kmh with probably one and a half car gap in front. Not many of us can experience the horsepower of an m3 but now you can relish the torque of an m3 with the 320d and it's nothing short of exhilirating [/QUOTE]
