comparo..

bossman · 01-06-2009, 08:09 PM

in terms of looks, performance, class and value..
without the bias.. pick one! (370z, 335i, c350, a5, or the new z4)

All carry same sort of price as a fully loaded Z.. all are also hot coupes with similar performance with the exception of the benz of course. That was just thrown in to test your brand loyalty

I really love the 335 coupe, but fully loaded it was pushing $50k, which is way too much IMO. Great car though!

brisk · 01-06-2009, 08:26 PM

a5 fully loaded with the sline is around 50K too...

bossman · 01-06-2009, 08:35 PM

yeah but base they all start around 40 still having comparable technology to the z

brisk · 01-06-2009, 08:38 PM

true...
but for 40k z includes all...
but the a5 doesn't include navi or anything "premium"
just leather and other minor things.

<<<< wants S5 lol

I have a 335i black, chipped. It is a torque monster, but after 100 mph you start loosing power. I'm planning to get a 370z soon, because I miss the engine tone of Nissan. I had an 03 z and I also have an infiniti fx35. The fx has the engine tone, but lack of power

Educ8r · 01-06-2009, 11:48 PM

The power is absolutely awesome, and I have an automatic!

Honestly, I think the sides and the back is bland and boring. I love the front though...

Also, I think the interior too plain, its like they never invested money into interior design because almost all different BMW models and years share same bland interior design.. <---- Only my opinion....

We share the same opinion LOL.

I do agree about all BMW interiors. They are certainly functional, but depressing as hell.

brisk · 01-07-2009, 12:18 AM

+1 on the bmw interior.
not a big fan.

nestillo370z · 01-07-2009, 12:45 AM

True bmw interior is bad, my fx is way better inside, but the engine of the 335i is a differet story

bossman · 01-07-2009, 01:09 AM

lots of 335i fans.. im surprised. most of the bmw ppl are too ignorant to admit the Z is legit competition. so basically, if both cars were free you guys would choose the bm?

also where's the love for the benzo, it's def the high roller in my eyes!
