Goodbye Lexus Hello BMW

Nawaaz · 02-09-2010, 10:13 PM

Congrats on getting a hold of your new e93 M3.

Definitely not a 'softy', compared to the average Lexus.

E93LAMANS · 02-09-2010, 10:14 PM

My first BMW is due to come in this friday, and I will pick her up on Sat.
She is a 2010 m3 convertible loaded. Le Mans blue, silver leather with aluminium trim.

Good choice! Did you get EDC?

A BMW is NOTHING like a Lexus. Hope you like it.
I have a couple friends who said the regular sport suspensionw as "too rough."
Whimps.

I was in the same boat before buying my E93 M3, former first gen lexus GS owner. I drive the GS in the winters now.
We also have a LX570 in the house, thats quite a SUV, i think lexus makes better SUVs then cars

major_kusanagi · 02-10-2010, 12:47 AM

I also had an IS. Night and day. In fact, you will regret you ever spent money on it. Congrats.

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??"
