[QUOTE="t2ribena, post: 524894, member: 3847"] let me try to be unbiased as i currently have both the camry and bmw 5-sili if you are not using the car you going to buy for extreme spirited drive then the Camry is a good choice...the camry's rear swaying issue during taking a bend can be minimize with a thicker anti roll bar...i had mine fitted...the 2.4v is not a slow car and not really fast but it will give 523 and 525 a run for its money until 200kmh...after that the camry's ecu refuse to take you further...hehehe if you are daredevil driver then you can give then a run during the bend as well...pros-less maintenance = no headache, ease of use and the space...cons-lacks mechanical grip (does not feel planted on the road at high speed)....apart from that its hard to find fault for a car this size and prize...no drama car... for the 5-sili, well if you like driving either slow or super fast then you can't be wrong if you get this car...it will reward you greatly if you are a precision driver...its is much more refined and precise compared to other makes in the same class...what you need to consider is the capabilities to maintain the car to its tip top condition in order to continuously enjoy such an engineering 'joy'...thats all...this is part of the ownership experience which makes owning a bmw a love or hate affair...if one makes an effort to understand the car in fine details then maintaining a bmw is enjoyable and at the same time not getting ur pocket robbed...its kinda like a car that serves you as transport and also hobby to keep it tip-top...
