325i vs. IS300

[MrElussive]

The SMGII is cool but I'll stick with my 6-spd.

That's exactly the response I was looking for.

I had an IS300 for 2 years then I swap it with a Matrix XR for room and now my 330I sedan Sport/Premium. My car is definitely much better in everything compared to the IS300. I've drove the 325 for 3 days adn I say it is not better than IS300 other than the roomy factor.

dont the e46's now come with SMGII and no longer the old SMG?

MrElusive : yea, i wish i was living in the states too. with the 75 odd thousand AUD i paid for my e46 318i, i could've bought me 330's and M3's.

anyhow, whaddya gonna do

No, only the M3 comes with SMGII. Regular BMWs still only have SMGI in the US and the reviews have NOT been good.

I had a 325xi before my S4 & IS300. How long do you plan to keep the car? I loved my BMW, but it had to go into the shop @ least 3~5 times in a year. IS-300 IMO is a upgraded version of corolla (don't get me wrong I have a corolla too) but it's a real nice car. It's quiet & comfy.

The brand name is "Infiniti", not Infinity. So the plural would be Infinitis.
