Why did you choose your car?

I am shopping around for a new daily ride and I have my eyes set on a E55 AMG but can't afford that So I am looking at a C32AMG But Also thinking of a BMW 330i and adding a S/C. How do you like your C32? What kinda problems have you had? I worked at a BMW dealership before I moved to NC for 3 yrs so I know the stupid problems BMWs have. I will be gettin this car and basically not doing much to it (I said this when I bought my last car and now I need a second car to drive for every day use ) What otehr cars where you looking at before gettin the C32 and why did you choose the car? What is your avg gas milage on highway, Im lookin for somethin better then my cars 19mpg. Also if I may ask whats the avg payment on the C32?

Thank you people

GREAT SITE

got it because I wanted a used 210 E55, but parents objected the idea. Compared it with the M3 SMG II with the options that I want on both. M3 came out to be more expensive. I like the 4-door over the coupe because I had a 2000 328Ci, and it was not easy to get in&out of the backseat and caused people that rode in my car kicking the leather getting it all dirty, etc.

there's a MPG thread right on the first page of the forum. you should see it.

Fastest Sedan when I bought my and

price is right.
I also looked at 2001 E55 too but knowning the new W211 is coming out soon, I go for C32.
I get 21.8mpg on my C32...not too bad for 350hp car.

I still love the W210 E55 with the Silver/Black Seats Until they make that avalible in the W211 I wont like it as much its really nice on the W210. The C32 is everything in a good price and small body.
