E90 most popular BMW?

bsamoul · 09-10-2008, 12:41 AM

Hey guys, judging from what I see on the streets, do you think that the e90 is the most popular BMW that they ever made? I mean there are so many on the streets, I think they might become one of BMW's best sellers ever. What do you guys think?

Not even close. I'm willing to bet the title belongs to the E46.

The reason you noticed all of the E90s out there is because you own an E90 as well.

bsamoul · 09-10-2008, 12:47 AM

That may be... but don't you think the e90 could overtake the e46??

Best selling BMW ever = BMW Isetta.

easyman · 09-10-2008, 12:58 AM

the 3 series will forever be a best seller. But for now i think the e46 is more common just because it was out for 6 years while the e90 has only been out 2

OP, try not to run into a tree while doing this.

Eventually, the E90 will outpace the E36 and 46. At this point there still haven't even been as many units sold of the E90 as the E30 due to time...

Not to get to technical but the e90 has been out 3 years (06,07,08). 09 is going to be the 4th year.

But you are right the 3-series is the best selling series and their are probably more e46 4-doors out their then e90's for now.

slipperman · 09-10-2008, 11:12 AM

also, maybe it's because everyone and their mom were jumping on the 0.9% financing this summer..

Give it time then your thread topic would be true.

I'm completely serious. No BMW will probably sell as well as the Isetta did.

'09 will be the 5th year internationally as it was introduced as an '05 model in Europe... Remember they were going to call it the 4 series

In my opinion, the E90 328i's are the most popular BMW's here in Edmonton.

And this is no offense to anyone who drives a 328, but of the people I know who have 328's, they buy them completely bare and it's mostly just for the badge. We also have 323's in Canada too which are weak and a lot of people buy those for the badge too.

From what I've heard talking to some local dealers, the 328's are the most popular because people want the BMW badge without having the shell out the cash for the twin turbo.

If anyone else is from Edmonton, would you agree with me on this? (I HARDLY see a 335 on the streets now when compared to 328's).

Just for the badge huh? So I guess all the other 3 series bmw are not well designed cars??? I’m not saying this because you've offended me, I’m replying to your (no other way to say this) Idiotic comment and im assuming, according to your logic, you bought your 335 just for the badge because you didn't want to shell out money for the V-8

Yep. +1.

I guess this guy wants to start the same old "335 is better" conversation. Old hat, move on.

Whostheboss · 09-10-2008, 02:43 PM

wrong way to compare, E46 started in what, 1999? E90 2006? well how many E46's were on the road by 2003 compared to how many E90's on the road today.

Remember most E46ers probably ugraded to E90, so thats why it seems as if there are more E90s than E46

noro · 09-10-2008, 02:48 PM

LOL all you want, it's still true.

well I don' t know about the US, but here in Europe it isn' t looking too good. The rear of the car pissed everyone off (journos and customers) and to me it looks like the car certainly isn' t the best ever selling beemer as I don' t see that many of them. But then those are just impressions.

ik999 · 09-10-2008, 02:53 PM

maybe it's just me, but here the e90 and the X5 are by far the most popular

then comes the e46

I miss my E46! For long distance driving it was more comfortable than my E90. If I could have stuck the twin turbo engine into my E46, I would have kept it.
