really wasn't there...surprisingly.

On my way to a BBQ yesterday afternoon, I finally got a good glance of a 325i E90 on the road. We spent about 5 or so mins on the highway in plain view of each other. I hope he didn't mind me passing and him passing me while I scope out his new ride. It was silver with temp tags. I guess cuz of all the hype and anticipation, my first E90 sighting wasn't as exciting as I had hoped.

My first impression wasn't bad though. I thought it had nice lines and a smooth styling. It definitely is more unique to the E46 than the E46 was to the E36, imho. What I wasn't impressed with was rear styling and how the wheel base profile looked in respect to the body. This may just be with the 325i but the tires looked small and almost like donuts from behind on the highway. I can see BMW tried to add a certain type of aggressiveness but I didn't think it was *that* much, if any, more than the current E46.



Just my opinion and I have yet to sit or drive in one. I guess I'm a victim of the over-hype. Would I take one, if it were handed to me on a silver platter? I sure would! Congrats to those who got one though. Please continue to post your experiences and comparisons.
