Reasons not to buy an E90-

[dsobering47]

CPO'd with maintenance and decent miles (40-60k) will run you mid 20s....thats E92s. E90s will be cheaper.

they're solid cars. my dad has one, and is selling it to buy a touring.

[dkbmxer002]

why is there like 12 vents on the roof of that house?

[AWDE30]

Oh he's selling it? Is it a 6 speed? Looks like a 06 325

Look how huge it is next to the e30. :rofl:

[nando]

park it next to an E34. the E34 is probably lighter too.

My friend is getting one when he gets out of the service this winter.

My brother has owned a 2006 330i w/ 6-speed manual for a few years now and its been a trouble-free car for him. I've driven it several times, major gripes I can report:

run-flat tires (easily resolved)
no spare (just repair kit - although a compact spare kit was offered)
no oil dip stick
cupholder is shallow (bottled water will fall right out when you floor it)
first gen iDrive stinks

The N52B30 engine is pretty damn durable. Not a lot of tuning options available but its baseline 255HP is nothing to sneeze at either. Definitely try to get one equipped with a Sport Package....makes all the difference.

Since this particular model is going on 5 years old, depreciation has kicked in enough to make a clean, well maintained 330i a sub-$20K car.

this is my e92 328xi
i need something for everyday driving
6spd, sport pkg, cpo
right now this car is worth somewhere close to $25k

this is a fast car, or at least fast enough
its quicker than an e46, goes around corners without any drama, great seats, stock stereo sounds great, bluetooth is nice
great modern everyday car

the downside is that there is no drama going around corners or driving fast. you don't get the sensation of speed like an e30 or my 2002tii.

I've got an 09 335i and its the best car I've ever owned...and I've had a lot of cool cars (s2k, STi, many Nissans, VWs, etc). It is a great daily, has tons of power without mods, and gets decent mileage. I highly recommend them.

[gkurey]

You know you want one....mine is pretty sexy IMO:

[AWDE30]

gwb72tii & gkurey nice E92s are you guys on E90 post?

[Dozyproductions]

Add that to the song of Like A G6 and you got my friend's plate: "SMYD6..". I think we laughed about it for over half an hour.
