New Tiguan of course. 2 year old 320 is not really an ultimate driving machine. If you want to experience BMW, get our bro's used 525i instead. That is a BMW.

That is a BMW. IMHO, getting a BMW 320 or 520 is like buying a Subaru without a Turbo. Regards, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigger interior than 3 Series, faster and cheaper than Tiguan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if our bro here really wants to experience BMW, he shouldn't short change himself. I feel that he will enjoy the 525i experience more, nevermind that it is an older car. If Throttle can give a good price, he should go for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throttle2 Supersonic April 30, 2009 Share April 30, 2009 Good price. Less than $11k dep per yr. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quirky_ster Clutched April 30, 2009 Share April 30, 2009 Drop the Tiguan.. it's a different driving style... high line... .. unless it's Beemer 5... I'd say get those Conti with Turbo... worth much better.. lower tax, FC and drives better... Consider... VW Passat/Jetta/Golf Skoda Superb/ Peugeot 308/ BM 1 ( oops over budget ).. Opel Insignia(coming)/Corsa OPC/Astra Turbo/Sedan ( NA) me not saying Jap car not good.. but since you say wanna experience Conti.. try one of these... or at least test drive them and go that you feel most shiok!
