I wouldn't go for a 322i. Only on the basis they don't exist.

With the Sirocco as you drive by, people will look at it and think "That's an alright looking, if predictably dullish, VW"

In a 3 series people will look at it, if they notice it and think "c*ck"

Your choice.

or maybe it's the OP's very subtle way of being indecisive about the oh so dull 320 and the oh so dull 325????

Hmmmmmm.

Or it could just be a really gash typo.

Because the only thing that matters is your perception of what others may think of you? rolleyes

I've just replaced an A3 with an E90 but recently had good use of a mk6 Golf GT140 and 2.0T TT Sline. If you want a good drive then get the BMW 325. The 2.0 turbo in the TT actually sounded like a diesel.

I've noticed a trend from your posts Boba... You don't like BMWs, do you?

It really is always the new ones making a fool of themselves.

OP I assume you mean 323? Of the choices here I would say Scirocco since its a bit more interesting than just another 3 series.

The new Scirocco is one of the few cars that changes onlookers opinions as it drives past. From quite sleek corporate front end, to, "OMG, what happenned at the back". rear end. 2nd only to the old Megane, in worst rear of the year. And when there's a cracking Golf GTI version to be had, begs the question.....WHY ?????

A few maybe, but certainly not the majority. Plenty of people are capable of choosing a car they want / need without concern for what others may think.

See if either of your options are RWD, then choose that one. wink
It's the PH way.
