How soon are you ditching E90 (for F30)?

Tallest · 11-30-2011, 03:10 PM

Having just sold my E90 I was wondering when current owners plan to switch - simply when lease expires whenever that is, or just when new models been around for a year or two (so all the illnesses of new gen are known and fixed)?

Or you like E9x version enough to even buy a better equipped car than your current one (snap some good deals at the dealer clearing warehouse, etc)`?

Thing is I think I like the E90 quite a lot to just get another one but just try different engine now, better spec, etc. Not really keen on the F30 at full MSRP. Would probably wait for a 1 year used one like I bought the silver E90 in sig. Was almost new and run like a clock for 5 years. Fricking amazing car. Most impressive reliability ever on this one (320d).

EDIT: This should be in general forums, my bad!

Classycali · 11-30-2011, 03:13 PM

Probably after the first two years the f30 has been out. but by than I probably would have an m6 or something.

TNganele · 11-30-2011, 03:15 PM

probably never, not a fan of the f30 so far.

Yeah, the interior is ugly.

Masheen · 12-03-2011, 11:56 AM

I am waiting for the LCI F33 to come out

A safe and sure winner

tripd16z · 12-03-2011, 12:51 PM

When a F30 CPO M3 is available.

AWe90 · 12-03-2011, 08:33 PM

i think the F30 "sport line" interior looks like hell. too much of that red & black shit.

Er3k · 12-03-2011, 09:28 PM

Not really liking the f30, gotta see how they look modded first. Besides, they need to get the bugs out of it first. Check back with me in about 2 years.

TheBingoBalls · 12-03-2011, 09:40 PM

Well after launch, maybe LCI? Don't want to deal with a HPFP-like problem. But 335 Luxury Line please!

theriz · 12-03-2011, 09:51 PM

waiting for the LCI version.

Q4P · 12-03-2011, 09:52 PM

I have to see it to decide.

Simple5 · 12-03-2011, 09:56 PM

I own my e90 out right so I will be hunting for another car in a year or so. Again, want to see what the F30 has to offer and see how many problems arise. I also want to see if they stick the N54 engine in there ala 335is or offer one with a more powerful powerplant in anticipation of the F30 M3. If its N54 then I can move all my mods over

rbtamms · 12-03-2011, 10:14 PM

Never, I don't like the F30. I just got my 2011 E90 & I love it & will use it 'till it dies.

After the HPFP recall is issued.

Colleen@HDAutoSalon · 12-03-2011, 11:26 PM

The F30 is so ugly....I think the E92 look the best in all the 3-series thus far.

eaglesfan83 · 12-03-2011, 11:35 PM

Going to wait it out for the M but after its been out a year to work out all the kinks...or at least some of them.
