PML E90 330i

[Turbonetic]

Hi

Any one of you bought first batch of E90 330i from PML?

Went PML yesterday, all wipe out already! New units have to be indented and tagged with a list price of S$209k. But I think the new price is way too high already, I thought I heard somebody actually got it at around $180+k only previously??

What do you think?

this car should be mated to the SMG box to give justice to the engine.

The 180k could have been the special introductory price to register the first few E90s on the road

Re: PML E90 330i

335i could still remain as a rumour. I've not come across anything that says BMW is producing such a car. cannot wait already lah.

I suspect....suspect only ah....BMW will have a 335ci, when the E90 coupe is launched. With the next M3 going to a 400+hp V8, there is a huge gap between a 330i and the M3....so they'll need to fill it. And since Audi, Merc, Alfa, and now Lexus will have > 3litre six-cylinder cars with close to 300HP, BMW will need to go one up!

I don't think so lah, the E46 M3 will always remain a favourite among NA engine lover. No other manufacturer come close in pushing 343bhp from a 3.2litre NA engine.........enough said.


Cheers!

Re: PML E90 330i

You may be right about that performance gap. I have read from somewhere that BMW will be developing a turbocharged engine with performance that will just place it between the 330 and the E90 M3.

The German horsepower race is still on...will be interesting to see Merc McLaren and BMW Sauber battle it out with new V8 format F1 cars next year!!
