335d = nice. I like the combination of torque, mileage, handling and the way it looks inside and outside.

NO BMW dealer in MO, WY, ND?? There are about FIVE dealerships in a 12-15 mile radius where I live!!!
Never seen it on the roads yet but just checked it out on Ford's site... looks much nicer now, like the Edge's big brother. I really like the new Edge Sport. The 22s are a big much, but it's tastefully done all around otherwise.

I feel BMW needs to be more competitive in the 3ers with their interiors. It is just so bland and lacking features for a $40k car. Of course you'll just have people tell you it's more for the driving experience.

Hell yes.

I'd paint it silver, airbrush some rivets and add one small WWII bomber girl "nose artwork" on each side.

Specify exactly how BMW needs to be more competitive in the 3ers with their interiors and what additional features do you think it needs?....

Sounds like a jeep. I thought he meant one of these (plus wheelie bars)

I guess if you did put a big block in a Willys-Overland, you would need wheelie bars though.

Cool

I will most likely replace my 2003 BMW 325i with a BMW M3 in a couple of years (when I'm done paying the new X5!). That said, I love my 325i (my first BMW). It's been very reliable so far and still is a joy to drive.
