Mercedes Benz .for real i like them both,."sweet sweet dreamer"Does anyone here drive a BMW or Mercedes Benz? What's the big difference between the 2? Which would be considered better?
How much more expensive is labour and parts? Are they reliable cars?
i was going out with a doctor and he had a 4x4 lexus and the speed limit was 120.. since i don't see those car the same way.. of course they are pretty and the light technology is awesome too. but i need to feel the power of a much more fun driving to whistler ha ha ha..test drove the low end stuff. bmw 320i, mb 230... man they sucked.

i think their middle end and high end stuff is nice though.
The 2007 328i Coupé is one helluva car. 300bhp twin turbo in-line six cylinder engine has been voted best new engine this year.test drove the low end stuff. bmw 320i, mb 230... man they sucked.

Now that is a load of bull. My bimmer tells me I don't need an oil change until I rack up 12,000 miles (not kilometres - mine's American) on it. I called the dealership and asked them about that, and they said the synthetic oil plus the advanced engine technology preclude the need to do oil changes every 3000 miles. I checked the oil at 7000 miles and it was a dark brown and sludgy. So I went used COMMON SENSE and changed the oil/filter immediately at an independent BMW mechanic, and have done so ever since every 3000 miles.The cars tell you when the oil needs to be changed or if the tire pressure is too low.
Great mileage? On a '94? This is my 2nd one of a much later year, but my first one was a '95 convert. That car had HORRIBLE gas mileage, as does my current one. I thought all bimmers had uniformly terrible mileage. I mean, I just took a trip to Calgary doing from 70mph to 130mph on the fastest highway route there (using kokihalla highway) and it ate almost 3 tanks of gas (premium fuel, total cost = $240)!!!! I could have flown for cheaper!...................BMW Red 4 door. Lowered, racing wheels, blacked out windows, 5 speed, black leather interior, $6000.00 dollar Alpine Pheonix Gold car stereo. It was a 94 bought it in 97. It had at the time only 56.000 original k on it. Best car I ever owned bar none. Great milage, great look, drove like a dream. One Calgary winter it dropped to like 45 below with wind chill. I parked it outside and no block heater. I thought it would never start. It did and alot of vehicles with heaters did not. If i stay in Canada for a long time I will buy another Beemer for sure!!! Low end, cheap or not it was still a Beemer and thats all that counts.
Maybe you should take it to Nixon Automotive in Burnaby? They're Bimmer specialists. You might have saved a bundle.The cost last week for oil and spark plugs etc was $900 with taxes.
I have a friend who recently acquired a 335i - I'm just wondering if anyone else have any recent experience with the 330 series cars - especially the xi versions.If anyone else has any more input please post
I do, but not the xi.I have a friend who recently acquired a 335i - I'm just wondering if anyone else have any recent experience with the 330 series cars - especially the xi versions.
