e92 buy now or wait for new model?
there are some irresistible deals about now but would you buy now or wait for the new model and supposedly pay the full price, i tend to keep my cars for some time and love the current e92 but assume the new one will have more power and 8 speeds plus numerous new toys.

So looks like you have at least an 18 months wait - ok if you're not in a rush to buy. I'd buy a E92 now, cheaper, and get the new model in a couple of years.

Also when the model ends like the e92 it has an LCI which it has had which always adds more kit like the leather seats bi-xenon lights etc, the new model is always more expensive with less kit. if it was 6 months I would say wait but 18 months I would say buy, depends how much you like the e92 and how much you like the new looking 3 series.

If it were me I'd wait.
Think how excited you will be after 18 months of waiting! You also already have an E92 so it's not as if you have to slum it for 18 months. |

went to the dealer today there is another attractive deal on offer what they call a 50-50 (dont know if you get to phone a friend as well!) where you pay half now and half in 2 years time. i really like the e92 and at the current offer prices its hard to refuse, an awful lot of car for the money, as to waiting for the new model its sure to be a lot more expensive and after the initial excitment has worn off it will be just another S/H car so just waiting to see what the dealer comes back with tomorrow, there could be a very nice silver 335d for sale by the end of the week.

Usually 18months after saloon for the coupe to arrive.
Order new one. Can't beat having the latest model as soon as it comes out!

Get the e92 now!!!!! As long as it comes with the sport package...that's just a must as far as I'm concerned

Any of u guys have sneaky pics of the new model(s)..the ones I have seen state side are not impressive IMO..the e92 body style..roof line.panels.. are just beautiful ..have not tired of checkin out my car out from diff angles going on 5 years now.
Performance issues are moot..this car is scary fast for me..not craving much more. |
