Did I make a mistake going for a 330i?

convinceme · 01-08-2009, 08:11 PM

Ok I love my car, but I'm just wondering did I miss out on anything over getting a 2007 328i? All I think I could find was that the 330i has more hp then the 328i and more torque? soo, did I miss anything cosmeticly, and mechanicly with buying a 330i over a 328i?

mmm def · 01-08-2009, 08:12 PM

Nope, enjoy your car.

FotiosF90M5 · 01-08-2009, 08:15 PM

well said.

Bimmer007 · 01-08-2009, 08:20 PM

you get more with the 330... more power, xenon headlights, Full chrome grill, chrome trim around the windows, chrome exhaust finishers, and logic 7 sound system

congrats and enjoy!

NewSong · 01-08-2009, 08:34 PM

Well depends.

If you wanted a coupe, then yeah. But if the E90 looks good to you, then no.

ase2dais · 01-08-2009, 08:38 PM

330i is better value over an 328i

Omni · 01-08-2009, 09:09 PM

+1 to all. You've got nicer base trim than a 328, and a more powerful engine and I think you even have better brakes.

Aurora Bearialis · 01-08-2009, 09:20 PM

and 2 more numbers 330>328!!

Neutrino45 · 01-08-2009, 09:23 PM

What year is the 330i?

ase2dais · 01-08-2009, 09:24 PM

lets hope its 06
lolz

CyberGypsy · 01-08-2009, 09:25 PM

like others said 330i > 328i. Enjoy your car.

KDynastyE90 · 01-08-2009, 11:46 PM

I just bought an E90 330i a couple weeks ago. No regrets here, you made a good choice

JayReplay · 01-08-2009, 11:47 PM

Big mistake

Right, my question is just as dumb as asking if you're missing any thing cosmetically since they're the same body style.

Bimmer Nerd · 01-09-2009, 12:31 AM

330i is much better man you made no mistake whatsoever. 20more hp more torque better grill window trim.

Yes, all of those things were said already.

yoyeewee · 01-09-2009, 01:40 AM

Great choice...I would have done the same thing too by going with the 330i. I used to have one and it was a great car!

No cuz I learned that I have better trim, and grill then the 328i

Thanks for your input guys, no I just was wondering cuz my buddy just got a new 328i and he's all bragging to me why i didn't go for the 328 instead...
But hey it least I own him on power right!

Neutrino45 · 01-09-2009, 03:43 AM

What? The chrome trim? Most people prefer the black ones.

dlpuette · 01-09-2009, 07:49 AM

I had the same choice to make last year. Got the 330 and never looked back. I recently drove a friend's 07 328 and it made me feel even better about the 330! Besides, it's really unique since it was only available stateside for a year.

Love mine!!! Plus, you can call it a 33 oye. Try that with a 328!
