Do you actually know anything about the BMW Sport range?

You are aware, I assume, that calling something 'Sport' doesn't necessarily make it sporty?

Jez said:
You buy one because you want a sporty all rounder with space and load capacity, not for cruising.

The above are not mutually exclusive, unless you believe that a 'sporty' all rounder with load capacity is never suitable for cruising. :confused:

A sports exhaust totally fits the cars ethos.

Why didn't BMW fit one then?

They did - its a full stainless system from the factory. They fitted a literally enormous tailpipe to the back, which looks pathetic. I want smaller tailpipes.

I beleive what you meant to answer to Jez was 'No', rather than that.

No, because I know something. I know that it's not a sports car, and that trying to make a car that isn't a sports car sound a bit sportier, is a bit juvenile.

Because a 330i Sport Saloon is juvenile?

Still, I'd rather be juvenile than bored to tears driving around in a crushingly boring 1.4 litre hatchback I bent myself over for £15k for :)

That's not what I said, is it.

But a 330i Sport has the sound, as standard, which I'm after. It is a saloon car and not a Sports car. I like the sound. I think it sounds good. Thats reason enough for me, really :)

Anyway, as I said, I'm not sure that being juvenile is that much of a problem anyway :)

I've posted previously in this thread when I had not long had the car three years ago.

It has had some mods since then :)
