Apart from the coupe, the current 3 series style is getting dated.

I tend to agree with you, the C is a hard car to beat, it really offers alot and a great look for the money, It really does not compete in the HP area as the current C350 is only 268hp (but a wonderful engine) I suspect they will introduce a new V6 engine in time for the 2009 E Class which should debut here shortly

The Interior of the C (I got to test drive one) I REALLY nice, Benz has finally put it's money to the masses although they have the cheapest looking shifter I have EVER seen (Plastic) Other then that it's a beautiful car

The 3 doesn't look dated to me, it's simply been out since mid-2005 and everyone and their mother now owns one (Including my mother ) So I feel the design has become pedestrian

Hi Blondie, yea. Everyone has a 3 series here too, including my Mom, just like yours! . Still would like too see what the facelifted 3 will look like, I really like the coupe and the upcoming M3 styling. But this is going to be dated soon, as these kits are being offered on the 3 series sedan now too.

The E90 styling has gotten to be quite boring as it ages. The rear end still looks wrong, and it just doesn't look sporty or inspiring in anyway. It's like, a "generic car" look.
