[uauaEEE]

That hyundai concept car is cheese whereas A5/S5 looks classy, sexy and hot.

in general, reading the retarded responses in car and watch threads makes me tilt, but this one is especially good.

the bmw 3 series is hands down one of the best cars ever made. each generation becomes the benchmark for every car companies' attempts at a sports sedan. and not that i need to keep going on, but in more than one review the bmw 335i has been called 'perhaps the greatest car ever made' for its price, which is now about $50-55k loaded out.

Agreed. The 335 has the same 0-60 as the s5 for much less (both around 4.9s), and beats the 330i's times of 2 years ago by almost 2 seconds. Source: S5 review 335i G37 comparison 335i review on different site

The current m3 also beats the RS4 and the c63 in a car and driver comparison where it is the cheapest car featured.

Their popularity may not make them as exotic as all the other options, but there is a good reason for that popularity.

looking like the 3series FTW...

Depreciation will kill you, but not a lot of them around.

Depends. Buying the BMW means you're trying to say something to the world. People don't buy a 3-series BMW because it's a good car. They buy it because they want a BMW, but it's the only one they can afford. If a guy places no value on a car then he'll buy any kind of disposable vehicle.

People like you make me laugh. Keep telling yourself that.

I bought a 335i this year because on a price/performance basis it's easily one of the best cars you can buy. But don't take my word for it... let's let Car and Driver say it: "The current and much-praised, fifth-generation E90 version is no doubt the best, and is among the most rewarding cars to drive at any price."

OP: don't listen to the haters... Get yourself a 335 and be done with it.

I'd like to add that the 335 (lightly modified with a $300 ECU piggyback) has been stomping the new M3 on the 1/4 mile.

One of them, running drag radials, a $300 piggyback, and a downpipe has run a 3.83s 0-60. (It's also the same config that ran 12.44@109.6 in 2900' DA last week.)

That's a sub 4 second 0-60. <--- Read that again.

Anyone who doesn't recognize that the 335 is a monster clearly doesn't know a damn thing about cars, and should STFU.
