Default Traded in my S2000

She's gone ...

Traded in my 02 Sebring Silver for an 04 330i w/ Performance Package. Needed a sedan and after looking hard at an 04 TL, decided to go with the Bimmer instead.

The 330i is a great car in its own right, a perfect blend of luxury and great driving dynamics esp with the Performance Package. Handling comes close to the S2000, but a lot more civilized.

I already miss the S2000, but the Bimmer fills my needs for a more practical car that also is fun to drive. Needless to say, I'll still be hanging around this board as it's the best out there!!

Cheers
Simon

Sorry to hear you got rid of your S, but great decision. I think with the possible exception of the new S4, the 330i PP is the best sports sedan on the market-- and certainly the best-looking one.

S2000 isn't for all of us... But for the time being, I love it!

Good choice though. 330i is a great ride.

I did consider briefly the new S4, but that stickers around $50K. Too much money for me now. Looks like an awesome ride though, with 340hp.

The 330i with PP certainly is a looker!

The 330i is a great car. I autoX'd a friends for an event this year, and for a car of it's size it moves really well. But, it's no where as nimble as the S2K. Steady state cornering, the car grips very nicely...but start hustling back and forth in the car, and the wieght of the car quickly overpowers the shocks.
