Re: OT: BMWs (was USB2 on Laptops?)



The rear suspension for the Roadster is based on an extremely old 3 series, and isn't very good basically. It's also not a very rigid chassis. I agree with Tim that BMWs are good cars, but the Roadster is the car they should never have made (at least not the way they did). Nobody I know who knows cars likes the Roadster. The Coupe on the other hand seems to be better.

They're not my cup of tea (aesthetically), but to be honest if they are
anything like the 3 series they will be outstanding to drive. BMWs just
seem to be class leaders, and they get better with every evolution
(twice I've used that word in a day).

The M powerplants really like to rev - the M3 engine redlines at 7,900
rpm so the power just keeps on coming.

Tim,

have you any experience of the M coupe or roadster?

Thinking of treating myself (to a 2yr old one) if I pass an exam next
week.

Have an Alfa GTV at the moment & feel the urge for more power (& less
rattles)

Cheers

Jon B

I can barely wait 2 weeks for something, let alone a YEAR. Christ,
that's ridiculous!!

Luckily for me then that I have *zero* interest in cars. Too slow, too
big, too many wheels... ;-)
