Of the 4, 2 are new and 2 are used. The new ones of course during warranty no problem. Maintenance spoken here is after warranty. In fact the mechanic's brother one is new. After warranty kept a few more years then mechanic also ask him to change to camry.......hhahahhahahaIt really depends on how you look at it. Easy - not really because they are quite fussy cars meaning if it says 10k OCI, you better do it at 8k. And aftermarket OEM parts not necessarily good to use and better to stick with ori. But having said that if you know where to look the parts aren't overly expensive and are comparable with Toyotas of the same segment (except for some things like airbags.. BMW costs more). Your friends probably bought their bimmers new and were forced to go back to Autobavaria for service and got screwed over. Or they bought lemon used units (there are tonnes) which bled their wallets dry.
The thing about the Camry compared to a BMW 3-series or 5-series, the Camry is way more forgiving compared to the BMWs. You could forget to service the Camry and run to 20k without breaking anything. Do that with a BMW and prepare to replace your valves seals. A leaking Camry valve cover gasket will last 80-100k, the BMW one half of that max. etc.
But the driving feel and experience the BMW is way better vs the dull boring Camry.
Oh mine was full city driving. The 320i e90 was even better. About 10.9km/L conservative driving + jam.How fast were you going? Mine when I last monitored was about 10.5 during a trip to Melaka. Was doing around 150 most of the time
The digital meter is quite reliable and probably more accurate than dipstick as it measures everything rather than whats in the pan.The only BMW I have ever driven was the E36 M3. Excellent car but I still don't dare buy BMW or any European cars yet. What I don't like about the modern BMWs is no dipstick.
I've thought of it. I've had a lot of looks-see for E7s and all but I can't afford them as all are cash only and I don't have that much.Izso, you buy Evo la! Got many E7s now on sale.
Its ok. Most modern BMW drivers are dipshits anyway. Level up from Myvis.The only BMW I have ever driven was the E36 M3. Excellent car but I still don't dare buy BMW or any European cars yet. What I don't like about the modern BMWs is no dipstick.
6 cylinders, and you can keep it cruising at 150? Not itchy to go faster ah.How fast were you going? Mine when I last monitored was about 10.5 during a trip to Melaka. Was doing around 150 most of the time
Naah I prefer traditional dipstick. Meters require sensors and electronics which just complicate things.The digital meter is quite reliable and probably more accurate than dipstick as it measures everything rather than whats in the pan.

At least its fuel consumption for its experience is better than that of 3 years old 1.6 Campro vvt having the same fuel consumption.Oh mine was full city driving. The 320i e90 was even better. About 10.9km/L conservative driving + jam.
Warga mas lah. Kasi chance sikit6 cylinders, and you can keep it cruising at 150? Not itchy to go faster ah.
Sudah cukup lah tu.6 cylinders, and you can keep it cruising at 150? Not itchy to go faster ah.
That being said, we should organize a meet at the ice cream shop
Cukup...? Your cruising average is 150.. mana cukupSudah cukup lah tu.
Hahaha, ok unfortunately I could not afford a modern BMW yet so cannot be a dipshit.Its ok. Most modern BMW drivers are dipshits anyway. Level up from Myvis.

My average ? more like my top, i have not had any chance to go above that in my every commute. Need an excuse to drive to JB or ipoh then can go faster than 150...Heck most of the the time I dont even hear the 105kmh speed beeper on my drives..Cukup...? Your cruising average is 150.. mana cukup
City driving. How fast can I go? And driving on highways I tend to keep it to 120km/h max.How fast were you going? Mine when I last monitored was about 10.5 during a trip to Melaka. Was doing around 150 most of the time
It's a place to meet in Damansara KimIce cream shop?
I actually did consider this. But took a lot of convincing to look past the huge bills and constant maintenance needs. So whilst I love the way it drives, sounds and looks, I do not like how expensive maintaining it is. And its inherent flaws, but I'll probably never drive it hard enough to reveal those flaws anyway.
Actually - not really. I'm not an Evo fanboy. I'm not a boxer fanboy either. I like turbo but without the heft and weight. At the same time I like the NA screaming of VTEC in the K-series engines. I like all cars in general. As long as it makes me feel nice it's a good car.
Hmmm...that Xtrail sounds interesting.maybe mk5 golf gti?
or perhaps like previously mentioned before... a SR20VET swapped nissan Xtrail.... sleeper...and it share base from normal SR20.. just slightly different head...
