Angry Re: New BMW 3-series design

I think i've figured it out...Chris Bangle is being payed by Mercades to not only steal BMW engineering ideas (hence the new SLK's excellant handling) but to also sabotage BMW's previous record of perfection. I will admit though I am in love with the new M5, but I heard Bangle's team was told to keep their hands off by the M division. Go figure Bangle leaves something alone and it turns out brilliant.

Re: New BMW 3-series design

Why do I think Acura when I see these photos???

And a poorly copied Acura at that!!!!.

If this is the styling design trend, I'll spend, less and get the Acura RL, TL or TSX.

When German and Japanese cars look alike, it's time for American cars.

(Help me lord, please!!!)

Quite honestly??? This years model took away the looks/stance of the previous E46 models.Can you say Mazda???? Why would BMWAG make/change a model that competes and similar looking to the Japanese models.You dont see the Japanese models trying to look like any European BMW let alone the E46.IMHO?? I love the ( Let Say ) previous E46 wayyyyyyy better.It's all European to me looks and stance.The E46 is the best if not what the 3 Series is all ABOUT!

Cheers !!

Red face So, let's say fresh?

Drove 2 days 323 loaner car when mine 325XI was at shop.

What about 2006?
Exterior look semi japs, but many peps like it. Mostly not BMW owners!!!
Interior 100% jap. Hate it. May be package was not so hi-end. No sport seats, not climat control, no HK sound. But this is not excuse for windows buttons location, Corolla-shining gauge display, XM like chip looking radio controls and cruise conrol lever, which I every second time turn instead turn signal switch....
Ride was OK, little softer if not mention railway crossing. Thats probably run-flats... Auto tranny is good. May be first auto tranny not make me nervous. Just dont zip in the traffic as with manual. My 325 with 5 sp. as you can guess.

Honestly, if I buy 2006 BMW after Honda or other jap, I'll probably will put 5 star on this car! And will recommend for my girlfriend.
