I was VERY VERY close to buying a $43k 135i manual but many of them are having the same issues the 335i has and is having. After looking at the CTS and G8 I think GM has finally come up in quality. Toyota is having ALOT of recalls and problems. European cars: BMW, AUDI, MB have ALOT of problems. May I ask why you are on this forums anyways??? I WILL buy a 2010 SS LS3 in 2009 and am SURE the quality will be equal or better then a BMW. |

Wow...looks like I hit the sciatic with you guys.
I'm glad you all assumed what I'm about, but that's not something for me to care about. Feel free to remove my account if the mods here, of whom some have PMd me for no reason whatsoever, care that much. Which apparently they do. But please leave my posts. I want to reference them when I come back to say I told ya so. |

OK, I am a litle confused...the LS3 in the vette has a 430 hp rating at 5900 RPM, while the SS has a 422 hp rating at 5000 RPM, what am I missing here? Is it seriously underrated co,pared to the vette??

Hmm, thats more power than the LS3 makes at those revs so its not exactly under rated.

Just really wondering why you are here ??????? I am a member on 3 BMW forums but don't go there dissing the 135i or 335i much. I check in now and then, but not daily like I use to. TOO BAD BMW can't fix the HP fuel pump problems along with the new program that NOW causes lag until 3,000 rpm's on the N54. I could make a huge list of problems but I won't. Why are you here?????? |
