I think so, but I've only driven a 3 series when I get a rental from the dealer.

Why not get something cheaper that's brand new with a full warranty for around 16-20k an put the other 10k into that Porsche??

1er definitely feels smaller than the e92. In a good way though, like an e92 jr. Ergonomics are better in the e92 though.

Same level of interior? How much smaller is that back seat, cause the 335i isnt huge.

Cause this might be replacing the 911

E92 seems to have slightly nicer dash material but it's really a non-issue. 1er backseat is noticeably smaller but people sitting there will still survive.

You say what???

Markyd83 · 10-10-2012, 05:23 PM

I'd get the one series due to mileage and CPO and being lighter if you plan on modding it. 3 series looks nicer in my opinion to be honest. I like the mtech body kit a lot though for the 3.

Mr. Nice · 10-10-2012, 06:42 PM

1er for performance 3er for looks/comfort

Electric cars are nothing but vanity, and not the answer...gotta burn coal to produce electricity to charge car= fail

Nice. Did those make the switch to the SC V6 yet, or are they still using the V8?

mkPOTO · 10-11-2012, 02:22 PM
