I've just bought a toy that I don't need, can't justify but the child in me just wants:

Picked up my new toy yesterday, Hummer H3 5.3V8. Def the engine this car needed from the start.

The best feeling ever!

Oh you are going to love the 330Ci, I have the 330i saloon and have been so impressed with it. Enough power to play in the twisties but so refined and comfortable while on a long journey, and the clubsport is going to be even better.

Have fun and post a few pics when you get it.

What a pointless comment.

Maybe it just doesn't matter, either because the OP is pretty wealthy and likes new cars more than he cares for a larger depreciation hit, or because what this car will give him at the price will represent value to him personally.

I doubt too much.

I bought a 330ci vert from a dealer. I personally guarantee I could punt it on for the money I paid for it.


Not including what I spent on it hehe

Not everyone know's BMW's model codes though. I certainly didn't until I bought a BMW.

Either way, Hitch's point still stands.
