Bozo: I left the RFs issue observation out of my mini review: it had RFs and the road noise/expansion strip/bumps were noticeable by sound as opposed to any rough ride. I have RFs on the Vette and have learned to live w/them, though as they wear it gets worse, not better. Next set will prob be non-RFs. The door jamb sticker on this 330i also called for 38 F 42 R...some serious pressure which, if they were set to that, may have contributed to the dramatic road/tire noise inc. I still wanna bang a 6 Spd Sport...I hear you on the "small fam" deal, which me&TheCEO are, but we occas. have people in back seat. The "Trunk" on the 330 is really a weekend 2 pieces of soft luggage and a tooth brush deal. No foo-foo here, but not even one set of fooking clubs will fit. Sorta the Teutonic anti-cupholder/mini trunk, "f the US" 'tude to me.
Still, a fine azz car. Hey, we could always get a 540 for more "room", lol!

Ditto, MD!
To be quite honest, the only real beef I had with the RF's is not actually with the RF's..Its with BMW...They offer no $$$ assistance in the case they blow out or otherwise..Right now they should, since RF arent THAT popular yet. They do offer some kind of extortionate insurance/warranty on them for 3 years and it might actually be worth it. But on E90post.com, There are threads and arguments all day about owners who either had to sleep in the car after the 50 mile "limp", or had to postpone a trip 2 days to recieve their RF "order" from some mom and pop service station on the I-5 or I-95, etc..I just think its a scary thing not having a spare..even if it IS RF, that would ease my heartache..
All in All, I will still probably order one within the next few months..It is a damn nice car...
And dont mention 5 series! Im somewhat "new" to this whole Bimmer thing, and recently I laid my eyes on an E39 530(?) that made me drool..Am I an idiot, or are those like the most beautiful cars on the planet?!
