Hello everyone,
I took my 03 325i in for scheduled service and received an 05 325i as a loaner. I was impressed with the car. The design has grown on me, but I have a few quirks with the interior and wanted to know what others thought. What do you think abot the interior lights.? I didn't care for those and wondered why they switched to the typical opaque cover. With that said, the turn signals are sweet. I love the folding mirrors and the seats fit like a glove. All in all, the car is fantastic. However, it is a touch too refined for my taste. I felt like I was in a 5 series. BMW might be doing this in order to bring the 1 series over in the next year or two. Futhermore, I also believe this was done as a form of compitetion. They refined the cabin to set the benchmark for the competition as far as creature comforts go. As I stated the car was superb all around I was just wondering if anyone else has been able to compare the two. [bmwdance]
