new wheels

[Liqui-Moly]

Im not in love the rear end as such. But it looks good in general I think.

Its like the new Golf 6. Looks terrible in pictures but after seeing a black one on the freeway 2 days I can say it looks lush.

I'm I missing something or doff or what?
I can't see any pics of a car. Only the original pics of the wheels back at the begining of the thread.

[freerider]

think they where UNhosted

[onyx]

Nahhh you aint being DOFFFFF....

The pix have gone bye-bye!

[revo]

lol.. I will upload the pix later.

As for the e92.. I think its one of the hottest designs bmw has done in a while.. All round, just clean, flowing lines.

You will have to see it in person to appreciate.

[Carn]

Yes and No Revo...It's not as aggresive as the E46 but still pretty in it's own right. The thing is I have yet to see a regular 330ci or something look anywhere close to what an E46 M3 does but I have seen 335i's with sportkit's and wheels that unless you look twice could be mistaken for an E92 ///M.

Still a sexy car but it hasn't got the presence of an RS4 or the uniqueness of an E46 IMHO

[Liqui-Moly]

RS4 is the shiznezz... End of discussion. Esp the Avant version hehe

Very nice car WHEN its going. A friend of mine in JHB had one and after owning it for 11 months it had spent 5 of them at audi.

The M3 still kicks its ass though

[Liqui-Moly]

Hmm yes... But its still and Audi and when you drive past the sounds of co*k, W*anker and other political terms dont follow you.

**The above is all my opinion and is not intended to cause offense towards BMW drivers. Its simply something that myself and Jeremy Clarkson have noticed**

IF you had watched any of the new topgear, you would notice that JC has changed his stance and reckons that all the cocks are now driving audis, so its safe once again to drive a bmw

[revo]

and jeremy clarkson stated that the c wankers are now the rs4 drivers. LoL.
Guess its all personal preference when it comes to cars.

i agree about the e92 m3 not appearing to be much different to the 335 in mtech guise, but if u know the 2 cars, there r so many differences.
To the guy on the street, he wouldnt know, but that was the same for e46 m3 and mtek 330ci.
I had a 325ci, often mistaken for m3.. By a majority that doesnt know the difference.
It may seem obvious to us.

They are all still nice cars, but today the e92 is making the 36 and 46 look very dated, imo.
This you only notice when they are parking next to each other.

I wouldnt mind having a collection of each.

oh yeh, audis are boring. LoL.

[Liqui-Moly]

I blame BBC. For playing all the repeats of old Topgear episodes. lol

I like BMW and would love a Z4 M hehe or a big 007 5 Series.

Audi isnt in my opinion all that boring. I have had a lot of fun in Audis before.

hehe, so you admit they are boring, just not THAT boring

I would give my left nut for a R8, or even a S5. But I still love my BMW's

[Liqui-Moly]

We had a R8 racing us in our 1.8 Litre Corsa Bakkie today... Kicked his rear end - Yes we did...


























Then he changed from neutral to first gear and with a slight fart left us driving like we were going backwards.....
Bloody cheap @ss Corsa... Useless excuse for a car...

The RS4 is without doubt a boring drive compared to an E46 M3. The S5 on the other hand is alot more fun despite sharing the same powerplant. The R8 I drove was fantastic, not stellar quick but what a noise and the GRIP

Had a quick whirl not so long ago in a 135i, stupendously quick little car considering it's price tag and also a hoot to drive. BMW definately know how to put a drivers car together but I still maintain they could have made the new M3 more edgey.

soooo.... u NEARLY had him, right?

[Liqui-Moly]

Yes Revo. Emphasise of course on the word "Nearly"...

lol

Truthfully though... We got our ass kicked by a 1.4 Corsa Sport Bakkie today (Same spec as ours except we have a 1.8)... Ok it had what looked like a aftermarket exhaust and it had a Steves Auto Clinic Sticker... But geez it left us behind... Time to send our bakkie in and see what the heck is wrong with it... We were redlining and he was just cruising. I dont think he even knew he was racing!

[freerider]

Have you tried changing out of first?

RWD or nothing.

[Liqui-Moly]

HAHAHA

We even chucked in a bottle of Liqui Moly Speed Tec and although it made a huge improvement in fuel consumption and throttle response its still a hopeless car....

Not to mention the seatbelt falling off.... lol
