I'm looking to purchase either the A3 3.2 or the BMW 328xi. I really don't know too much about cars, but I'm looking for some help so I can make the right decision on this big purchase. I have done a lot of research and I really like the A3 but many people have said with the price tag why not just go for a BMW 328xi. I'm looking to step up to a fun sporty car, but something that can handle the Colorado winters. Please help me out!

Replying to: lg12345 (Dec 04, 2007 11:45 am) You get more horses, and more torque (by a wide margin). If your looking for speed, the 328xi ain't it. now a 330 or 335 is another story.

Replying to: shipo (Dec 07, 2007 4:52 am) In my experience the travel is very minimum indeed. Regards, OW

I'm surprised the BMW might be so limited in travel. Does anyone know what the __actual__ amount of suspension travel is in either the Audi or BMW, and do they use hydraulic bushings (like VW and some GM cars) to help damp harshness?

Replying to: kurtamaxxxguy (Dec 07, 2007 7:26 am) Shipo straightened me out! I personally never shop a car according to suspension travel stats (if there are any listed anywhere). I learn something new every day! Regards, OW |
