word? like the current model IS, GS, ES, and LS don't have the same "hourglass" shaped front grille. :mjpls:

not to mention the new ES is constantly mistaken for the 2014 Toyota Avalon. (I know they're owned by the same company, but seriously?)
:ohhh: did i say I liked Lexus more in that post?
lex just started doin that grill. meanwhile bimmer been doin it for 20 +

Decatur where its greater
of course if you take care of the car it will be fine. BUT how much will it cost to take care of it and how often will you have to "take care of it".

you say there will be lemons but then you go on to say you shouldn't have to worry about parts/service for a few years?
Well the main issue at hand was reliability. Therefore, the cost of taking care of said cars isn't really too important.

And yes I stand by my statement, there will ALWAYS be a certain of cars that come off production that will be lemons, thats why the lemon law was created. But on average in a normal situation [see my og post].

You might be mixing up used vs. new cars. I was speaking on solely new.

They use the same kidney grills and circular halogens because its their identity. They want you to recognize what the car is before you really know what it is.

Audi has the same thing going on with the 4 rings smack in the middle of single framed grille, it's their identity. its a great design and it will take carry them throughout the years with very little variation required.

My two cents on the design.

that's cool but I never said I needed an explanation as to why they been usin the same design. I chose to single out BMW because I wanted to (not to mention this thread is about somebody coppin one). No need to :cape: for them, its not that serious. Like I said I like BMWs.

I've been driving my Infiniti Coupes (two G37s) and I'm thinking about trading one in for a BMW. Coming from the Infiniti car line, what can I expect? Are BMW's decent cars?

Sensor problems, interior shyt like cup holders breaking, transition issues

You get more technology, and horsepower out of the infinity for the money too.
Infiniti has the game on ball and chain when it comes to technology/Hp for the money.

Of course I'm talking about years ago before the new models came out and I was out actually looking for a new car. Went and saw the new Q50 and IS350 though and they still looked like they have the crown.

That IS250 is anything but a attention grabber :skip:

It's a straight up chick car :skip:

The new IS250 with the sports package though :patrice:
:russ:

How many chicks do you see drive an Is250 because I live in the DC area. Haven't seen any yet.

Women don't even like it because of it's sporty features like paddle shifters, manual gear change option etc...

Got my shyt fully loaded. Traded in a 2012 passat TDI for this.
Also out of the lexus line, the least one women would drive is the IS line....check J. D. Power and Associates
