Hi Dixon,

good choice of marque you've chosen over your previous ride (i think quite highly unstable ride right)....

cheers

Re: Newbie looking for friends

Hey dixon. i have been driving the 120i for 6 months already. It may not be as comfortable as the other better models but dont worry, its a good ride. Cept for the small boot space haha.

Oh cos PML does offer a discount to their car as their showroom price is normally higher in case customer had a car to trade in they use it to take in your car at a higher price. like my case i got my car now at 158'800 but i am entitle to a 10k overtrade which means i can use it to top up my current car finance or if my car is fully paid i can use it to lower my new bimmer. i was told that the bigger the car u purchase the higher overtrade they can offer. example 525 they offer me 20k but i didnt go for that cos i still think that car dun suit me cos my friend will be thinking i am driving my dads car out lol. Mean while i check for u the price from my friend see got better price anot

Not the handling but the drivers lol... To me its a very good and budget car, inmagine the sti with 300bhp only selling around 100k vs a evo 280bhp selling 130k atm. Its a normal car though, but alot of drivers out there dun understand that those in WRC had undergo alot of tuning and mod to obtain those result, u wont be able to find this in a stock car, and most of the subaru drivers these days are too young, so chances is that when ppl push them , or pilion a lady beside they wack liao lor, like i used to do during my young days ma. thats why i change to a bimmer now cos first impressive for my work, ppl will say wow bmw ar lol, secondly i dun need to spend those money i used to on mod, cos previously i think i spend around nearly 60k on my rex jus to complete with evo, think back now abit silly lol. But for sure its a very good and stable car unless we ourself want to push to the limit.

Thanks bro for the tips
I think the comfort i still can accept cos its about 50% better than my subaru lol. as for the boot space is also good enough for me. Had u tried to upgrade the ECU tuning so to get about 15bhp to 25 bhp? Also did u change the ICE already? I am getting the sedona red body cos i think black very common in bimmer liao.
