Chassis wise, I prefer the E90; better handling, and less complexity/weight.
Engine wise, I would say both are great; however my personal opinion the N55 has a slight engineering/mechanical reliability edge...all things being equal. Both engines are well engineered. The "scary" HPFP/turbo issues of the N54 is overblown. It all comes down to care/maintenance/upkeep/pride in ownership. Ultimatrly, I would say the best advice is to choose the car that is in better cosmetic & mechanical shape, better/more comprehensive maintenance records/receipts, and better documented history. You can almost never go wrong with that approach. Last edited by lab_rat; 07-26-2017 at 11:38 AM.. |

Thank you all.
The truth is that I don't know what I want. I currently have a C5 Corvette and a Honda Pilot. I am looking for something as a consolidated compromise. I have two young kids so a backseat is a must. I have looked at 335s, 750s, 911s, Mercedes E and S class, Lexus ls460, mustang gt and a few others. I am stricken with FOBO (fear of better options). |
