Here is a realistic juan that I can work with. Only has 6.5k miles and 22 months left. Assuming if the term is 36k miles, I can totally work with this as far as mileage is concerned. Perfect spec as far as interior and exterior, and I have said to myself that I was gonna go back to :manuel: but I know these transmissions are amazing for what they are, other than the programming of course. Can get better wheels and tires, put stockies back upon returning the lease. :notbad:
You should just hold out for a :manuel: , you’ve been talking about missing it for years.
Yeah I'd go MT on the M240i.

The BMWs are so refined, the auto just makes them too boring, despite being very fast and capable.

He did send it update that he arrived home without incident. I believe he’s installing some mods today.

Kind of funny. A 2016 328i is the same price as a 2017 Outback 2.5.

https://www.carmax.com/car/19082419
Image

Image

That's a pretty nice car. Beige interior, nav, memory sport seats. Non-pov headlights. 31k miles.

https://www.carmax.com/car/19074243
Image

Image

Also pretty nice really. Beige leather, sunroof, heated memory seats, nav, and Harmon Kardon sound. Also low miles at 54k.

Both have rear seat air ducts, and the prerequisite lighter color interiors. The bimmer would obvi leave the Subaru in the dust in any performance metric, but the Scoob would likely deal with inner city living a lot easier and probably be cheaper to own overall. Dunno, just thought it was kind of interesting they're listed at exactly the same despite one being a vastly "superior" car.

I was surprised at how not-exciting the M235i was. I mean getting into it, it's a nice ass car. Comfy seats, easy to live with, HK stereo was quite good. If you're just looking for a nice, easy to drive, quick daily it's a great pick. If you're looking for fun, involvement, and excitement.... honestly in that respect it was pretty on par with a basic GTI and nowhere near something like a Chevy Camaro or a WRX, where it's a lot more fun all of the time.

That's not to say that's a bad thing. Just depends on what you're after.

That’s actually pretty overpriced on the 3 series. Basic bitch should be in the teens.

Subaru comes with love, negating badgewhore benefits.

I guess what I’m getting at 0-60 magazine times not withstanding. This may be a bit on the slower side not sure if anyone cares ... but I’d guess a Camry is faster thanks to the hybrid system
"From a dig" I bet the BMW smokes the Camry. FWD sucks 0-30.
:dat: when I rented the corolla hybrid, holy wheelspin!! It's nice to get a nice torquey headstart but you also have to modulate the throttle as well, essentially the sweet spot. But when you're used to driving a GTI or any "sporty" nazi kraut made car (the polo rental, and the tiggy I borrowed), the corolla dives in front where it gives me a little headache. I also remember that with the Camry rental I had a couple years ago. Inner city traffic with quick burst acceleration from start to stop, BMW wins in that department. Honestly if the suspension is a little less floaty that doesn't cause to nose dive for 5 inches, I'd :derp: around in a hybrid Camry/corolla/rav4 in the mean streets of philly.

Right?!?! Not hard to fix...but for $7.5k, it should be flawless.

This is the current :fullretard: :truk: market now. :disgust:

I'd lose the side decals but otherwise it looks like a $40K car to me. 38K mile Carrera S? Bitchin'.

If you have 40k for something this old might as well get a new one for 100. This isn’t a poor mans game
