Re: F30 Teething Problems

It's great you'll grow to love it, despite heartaches here and there : )

Hmm... I have a VW which was a fun car to drive but it was jus pita with the nagging problems once a while...so I m a little more sensitive to most buyers. Now I am contemplating between the f30 n Volvo s60 t6.

Re: F30 Teething Problems

I will choose f30 328 especially with the promo now. S60 t6 does not feel like 3l turbo at all.

So I heard that it perform below par for a 300hp car except for NSHW high speed runs where the 3l never runs out of breadth, but again how many times i go NSHw, not many times. But there pre owned at fabulous price for whatever reasons.

S60 T6 in normal mode is really tame and don't behave like a 3L turbo, you have to switch to sport mode then the true power will show itself

Is there a sport mode?

Re: F30 Teething Problems

Hi all,
I'm one of earlier owner of F30 335. Collected my car in April.
Overall this is a superb car to drive. I used to own a E39 520 which bear a similar dimensions and footprint of the F30. Wonderful car to drive and the M5 E39 is still a "cult" car amongst the most wanted collector car. Acceleration is great, fuel consumption reached an unbelieable 13.4 km/l when I drove up to airport from West Coast! On the average I get more than 8 km/l, nearly as good as my E60 520/2.2.
Have done more than 14000 km in my 335 and it's excellent. Once dragged with a RS5 and we went neck-to-neck even though the RS5 boast a 0-100kmh time of below 5 sec!
Only fault now repaired is some knocking noise from steering side and the electric steering box was replaced.
Waiting to go to Sepang for a spin.
Completely satisfied.

Re: F30 Teething Problems

faster in drag is probably more due toyou having more guts to floor it than 335. rs is still an rs
