But what about the chronograph-style gauges!!!!

 

all else equal id get the bmw. even though the is300 looks better i bet the bmw just feels better

 

That was the worst part of the car. I use to like it when i came out and thought of getting one but couldn't get past the gauges.

 

Is that not the same thing as this:

Basic
IS: 4 yr. / 50000 mi.
325: 4 yr. / 50000 mi.

??

I talked to a girl recently on my way home (sitting in traffic) driving an IS that said she didn't like it but it was for stupid reasons. Said it wasn't very fast (close to same #s as the 325) and that the tires wear quickly cause they're low profile. :eh: She didn't really give me a good idea one way or another. I might hit one of the IS boards and see what they think. I want to get an unbias opinion though. If someone came to the Civic section asking about Civics, they're likely to get a fairly one-sided stance...

 

My speed is 60 miles per gallon!

 

Did she also bitch about how her dad wouldn't get her the Mercedes instead?

What do you not understand about 'free scheduled maintenance' as compared to 'basic bumper to bumper warranty'?

 

E90

 

Free scheduled maintenance means they pay for your oil changes, any services that the car is supposed to go though, even brakes and a few other things.

That is not the same thing as the warranty. That is on top of the warranty.

 

That's what I wondered. "Basic" to me means that they do the basic stuff for free, but I guess that's the basic busted stuff. Definitely good to know considering my ineptitude toward the subject. :run:

Realize I have never owned a new car, or a car with a warranty for that matter. Forgive my ignorance. h:

 

im with you.

sure its FWD but if it were me, id add the Volvo S40 T5 into the mix.

If you insist on RWD, what about the Infiniti G35 sedan?

but if you're chosing only between the lexus and the bimmer, Lexus FTW.

btw, did you sell the civic? :x:
