Sorry that's simply not true in my experience.
Yes, but you bought one ..........

I had one for a weekend and it was way too hard, much preferred the older car

Personally, I think I'd buy a 335i, save a load of cash (and my back)

You're right about the looks being colour dependant though

Black (the car I had) is pants

Really? The car's WAY softer than the E43 version - did the one you try have EDC?

Agree black is definitely the worst colour - you can't see any of the bulges, vents, diffusers that you can with the lighter colours.

Yep, the car had all the whistles and bells, cat flap, dog basket, etc.

I remember the E46 being alot more compliant though

BMW have done a nice job on the interior, the performance was more than I was expecting, but the car just lacks something........

Horses for courses.....

There's something quite offensive about the C63 though and I really like it.
