Re: Auzz, what BMW do you drive NOW?
Present ride is a altis 1.8.
Looking at the 325i coupe, that's why joined the forum to get more info to compare against the IS250.
yesterday test drove the 325 coupe at PML alexander. found the car very solid but accelerator pedal a bit on the firm side and response seems to be lagging until quite some stepping.
maybe i am used to the very light pedal of toyota. commented on the pedal and lack of immediate response to sales lady and got a lot of off the mark talks.
She said BMW has a stiffer and heavier body compared to jap cars which are very light. Even ventured that I should not be resting my right heel on the mat but use leg movement rather than foot ???? :errrrrrr: Will need crutches to get out of the car after a long journey if i follow her advice.
There is enough raw power on the spec to say this is not from lack of it.
I could not get her to understand it is not from lack of power, its the reaction time at the pedal. Sports mode was very much faster in reaction.
any one has input ?
