Re: N20 vs N55 engine turbo sound

the sky high price we are seeing is uniquely singapore la
pml fat fat margin (new model leh) + tax + coe + whatever

as all we know, a 320i in sg can buy a M3 in usa
so ... i don't think bmw price their N20 high leh

wrong,320i in sg can buy lambo gallardo(used) in usa.

As I continue my sale of my f10, I went to test drive q5 for my next family car, both the 3.2 v6 (20" rim) and 2.0t (18" rim) did not entice me, I was expecting more comfort from the suv but my f10 (20" rim) still win hands down. I reali salute this n52 3L NA engine. The n20 in f10 tiak tiak is more apparent then the 2L TSI in the q5 and my fren's A5 for my comparison sake.

Re: N20 vs N55 engine turbo sound

i think I raised this point before. My N20 528 seems to have a bit of a vibration at rest. I was wondering whether this is normal or is this a problem that I should bring back to PML to fix? I mean, the car is not a Rolls ....

Funny how we spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on a nice car but instead of raving about how stable and how good our cars' engines are..we now see people complaining about turbo problems...why can't BMW produce more reliable engines?

I salute my n52b30 on my f10 till now cos its reali strawberry, I still have the wet cream everytime.
I pui the n20 and n55 on f10 after 2 test drives, 5 second was enough to know how dry a baguette can be (wobbles, not saying yours).

Newer engine does not mean better
Newer looks usually means better
Imagine your hottest bed partner with facelift, more curves, better skin, brighter angel eyes, lesser need to wax, yet that dying familiarity to give u exactly wat u wan

Won't be surprise if they do that. Even Merc had dumped their kompressors for turbo (CGI).

Thank you, bro golilok, for sparing a thought for the baguettes of the world...

But I am troubled by your N55 experience... In less than 2 weeks (so says my ever squeezable SE), I should be down at PML, creaming myself to kingdom come as my fingers caress the seductive lines of my F13, exploring her every nook and cranny, feeling the tight metal muscle that is promised under that long, swooping lines of her bonnet.

Then, suddenly, potong steam as the tiak-tiaking sounds upon starting up the engine...

It is enough to give any man nightmares!!!!!
