BMW to a 370z
 

Just joined the forum and wanted to say hello. I currently own a 2007 BMW 328i that I am in the process of selling. But once that is gone, I am moving on to the 370z. My sister had a Z back in 2004 and I loved driving it. Recently, I decided to test drive a couple of 370's and I fell in love again :icon17:I am looking to buy the touring with sport model. I really love the 40th anniversary color combo, but we will see how it goes. The quicker the BMW is gone, the quicker I get my Z. Pic below of my BMW. I love the car, but I want something more of a true sports machine.

Trust me you will not be disappointed at all going to the Z. I myself come from a family full of all types of BMW's and the Z is just a great engineered machine.

I went from a 07 328i to a 370 also! Best of luck! :)

:welcome:

GLWS of BMW and purchase of Z

We had an 07 328 a few cars back too. Good luck with the search.

I just traded my 325i for a 2010 Z about a week ago. Loved the Bimmer but this is a real sports car. I smile every time I just tap the throttle and it snaps my head back. Of course the BMW was much quieter, but I like rawness of the Z better. As far as I'm concerned BMW has wandered a little too far toward Luxury and forgotten it's true sports sedan heritage.

Welcome and congratulations. I went from a '10 M3 to the Z and miss some of the comfort features, but since my mods and UpRev, I'm pretty satisfied overall.

Welcome and good luck on selling the car! Im pretty new to the forum myself and did the same exact switch. I went from a 2011 328i m-tech coupe to a 370 and can say it was well worth it!

welcome and congrats! :tup:

Welcome & congrats. The Z will be funnier to drive for sure.

Thanks for all the welcomes. I'm happy you guys with the BMW's are able to give some reassurance to enhance my decision more. I am looking forward to it. I never thought the E90 would be this difficult to sell. I might end up trading it in within the next month if a decent offer doesn't come my way. Thanks again guys!

more sportier you say?


wellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll MIATA!!!!!!! cheap! affordable and loads of fun!!!! :P jk!

never would have thought a BMW owner coming for the Z :) hey the more the merrier!

GL!

+1........ WOuld have thought an up grade to a 335i, or maybe...MAYBE an M3.

I just went the other way but... congrats! You will love the Z :tiphat:

I came from bmw but it was time for some change. Good luck on finding your Z

I thought the bmw was the 'ultimate driving machine'

Haha jk. Welcome to the club man! I love my car glad to hear someone coming from bmw over to the Z. I get a lot of dirty looks from bmw drivers and it always cracks me up

That is a clean looking 5 Series.

Almost purchased a 335i, but the deal fell through on the seller's end. I figured it was a sign and I should go with something new. Plus, the 335i turbos have not been the most reliable. Went from JAP to German and now back to JAP.

Thanks. Unfortunately a lot of BMW owners are really closed minded and think anything that is not a bimmer is ****. Luckily, I can realize there are other cars out there :icon17:

My old 328i.

I love my 370 though. It sure beats driving the 328i haha. Sometimes I miss having 4 doors for the room, but the I look at my 370 and smile so you'll do the same :)

I must say I was disappointed with the reliability of the BMW. I had always owned Asian cars and they were bullet proof. The Bimmer reminded me of old American cars. Made funny noises when cold, electonics were troublesome. Had 2 window regulators go out at $500 a piece. Thermostat for $400! Final stage resistor on heater for a forget how much. Two broken springs for like $700. Plus many other small items. I was driving the same roads as my Honda and never broke any springs. I'm in my early sixties so I certainly don't abuse my cars. Other than all that, the Bimmer was great. Love the Z so far...I feel more confident in it's reliability too.

Welcome, I went from a 99 323i as my first car and I jus got my Z about a month ago and have never looked back!

Thanks man.
