In all honesty, they are pretty good! RRP is a tad over $70k OTR and for what they are they handle and go well. Interior quality is a VAST improvement over previous gen, but still not Euro grade.

Touch screen is huge, but crappy which was a shame. Engine note on the other hand, pure porn

Sounds pretty bang for your buck. My mate works for SVM in Sydney, totally forgot about him. I called up and with pano sunroof option the car came to 78k drive away, easily bring it down to 70k drive away, great buy i reckon.

As much as I dislike the styling of the F20, I wouldn't buy a large BMW sedan with anything other than a 6 cylinder engine. On that criteria, the F20 wins out of these two.

Now that FIAT own Chrysler, Lanica have rebadged the C300 and apparently have put a near Ferrari standard interior in them.
I saw one in the States a few months ago and didn't look too bad.

Interesting choice. I personally would go for something smaller.

You'd be talking about the Thema :



Interior is verbatim 300c SRT8:

Somehow BMW made the 1 series uglier...
Now that's a real effort.

Not too crash hot on the F30 either.
