the current edition of car and driver has the 330i doing 0-60 in 6.4, the quarter mile in 14.9@94mph and in that comparison handily beating out all the cars in speed and handling to clinch first place. What's not hot is the price though, 34,600 base and the as tested price of 39,000. IMHO, the car is NOT worth the money. I'd rather go out and get a used E35 M3. All the rich ppl bought them at first, but because tehy are not the current body style they are selling them left and right. Nothing wrong with them, just that it's the old body style. A 98-99 is olny around 25000 now, and with 0-60 in the high 5s and awesome handling, it'll beat out the current 330i without breaking a sweat. I really wanted to get a sued M3, but being the poor college student that I am, I just couldn't handle the payments. I am quite pleased with my Lude though!

the 350z i heard starts at 27g's that's pretty good, but i don't like the look. looks like a batman car sorta. my cousin has a 330, nice piece of machine, but it feels like it is missing something, like "grunt straight up power" you can feel it, but since its a inline 6, you don't really feel the pull, like you would in a lude, gs-r, or any high end 4banger. If you wanna go luxury go for it dude. if you wanna go faster stick with lude then turbo/nos/sc whatever... and to give note of the S4. its one car i would have over a supra. and M's series. IMOP

hey sh lude..thats sad to hear bro..i guess ur movin on to bigger and badder things...as long as u slam the hoor and throw some 19's on, ill be happy.. ....dont worry ill still take u for a boot in the LUDACRIS and i might let u cruise beside me(only if u have 19's)...its good that ur gettin rid of ur lude, that makes my lude the best out of the pack no matter what, since im the last one....even though mine was better n e way. so i guess i cant make fun of u n e more on this board but dont worry it had to stop sooner or later.. just dont forget that u will always be a luder in my eyes and in urs too..dont forget ur roots cause without the lude, u would have no beemer.


in conclusion, PRELUDE 4 eva!!!!!and thast the bottom line

the rx 8 is sweet looking, but i think it has too big a cab, with a smaller one it would have looked much more agressive. of course a bigger cab is better for practical uses...
