It's wierd, I thought I would "get used" to the Bangle-era BMW styling. Whenever a new model came out, I would say "well it's fugly now but maybe it'll grow on me". Fast forward to today: the 3 sedan is still bad, the 5 still looks mediocre (facelift helped). The only ones that I have accepted are the facelifted 7-series, 6-series, and the Z4. No doubt in my mind that 2001 was the best year for BMW in terms of styling.

2002.....e46 facelift FTW!!! :nanana:

Almost everyone on this board keeps talking about the aero kit. I see the pictures and it really is a must but is it available in Europe only. I have been thru the brochure here in the US several times and haven't seen one listed. Also one more question..some of the best looking wheels are not in the brochure here also, are they Europe only or aftermarket?? Thanks

I didn't really like the sedan facelift in 2002. It wasn't bad by any measure, but I give a slight preference to 2001 (my uncle has a 330i sport from that year). However, would I buy a 2001? No. The steering is overboosted that year.

MD, Verbalkint...That's very funny. Laura, clear and decision in the same sentence.

L, I actually worked on that post line for awhile, for you...
I knew you'd "get it". ;)

E53 vs E70 dated? Not imo.

20 yrs from now the E53 will be in the car books as one of the examples
of cutting edge "suv styling". I doubt the E70 will make that cut.
But, get whatcha want! :thumbup:

Long Island Distressway... nice... first time I've heard it called that... and I drive it every weekend. :( It's gotten better with the lengthened HOV lane over a year or two ago but it can still be pretty bad.

Anyway, RTTI on the NAV is a must for my potential MY2008 as well.
