do the 20s feel a bit more comfy compared to the 21s? or are they similar? also i'm assuming the car is faster in terms of acceleration with 19/20 since they have a smaller diameter...true?

Thank you Sir :)

Its not very orangey. Saddle brown is not a photgenic color, so you have to see in person to appreciate it. Looks different depending on lighting.

hey Marwan, my x came originally with the 213s which are 19''.
i haven't actually tried them, cos they immediately fixed the 21'' with the aerokits.
plus, they reduced around 7000 dhs from 27,000 to around 21,000 dhs.
My friend in AD got new 21's (flower rims) at around 21,000 dhs and he sold his old used 19" rims for 8000 dhs :S.
it's weird that used rims can be sold at a higher price. LOL whatever

thanks.

man BMW prices in the UAE are such rip-off!

im not only talking rims, but im plannign to get the new M3 with the new SMG(DCT) and i'm hearing rumour that it would cost anywhere from 300k-350k :( WTF man?

i got my E46 2003 M3 for 220k.

no confirmation yet, but let's hope the new M3 doesnt exceed 300k dirhams.

yep! you heard right! it's around 360-380,000 dhs which is absurd!
their excuse, 8 cylinders compared to the prev 6 cylinders :S

no man, no way 360-380, thats too close to an M5. the whole point of the M3 vs M5 is that there is a gap between the 2 in terms of price and performance.

for example in the U.S there is a good $20k difference between the M3 and M5.

btw, i heard the new Mercedese C63 would cost 350k....mercesedes are always more over-priced than BMWs, so it gives me slight hope that the M3 would be at least lower than 350k.

Heck the Audi RS4 is 290-300k....and the RS line has always costed more than M cars.....unless of course this time around is an exception! :(

yah i guess you're right!

i'm dying for a white m3 lol

marwan 09-18-2007 03:45 PM

ive always been an M3 sucker, i had the E36 4 door M3, E36 2 door M3, E46 M3, and now and E60 M5(i'm married, so i needed a sporty 4 door family car :) ) ....and hopefully the new M3 price would be reasonable, so i'll trade the M5 for that once the new SMG(DCT = dual clutch transmission) is introduced next year. now that i have an X5, that's our family car :)

I have to say, that this is the SICKEST 2nd gen X5 I have ever seen. The color combos and aero kit are awesome.
