BMW comfirmed good to drive...Esp the RWD Models,the N20 have lower Mileage,but the B48 is a better Engine,you decide yourself...Hey,wait a while,the N20 one look like is from PI...because the Speedometer got Mph Readings...Yes,the N20 Unit YOM is 2013.

Woah u very sharp bro. I nvr spot it was mph much less yom 2013. Hmm so leaning more towards the b48 then.

1. standard suspension

2. M sport suspension

3. adaptive M suspension

4. adaptive M suspension professional

5. adaptive suspension

2. Lower than standard suspension by 10mm + thicker anti-roll bar

3. Electrically controlled damping and rebound.

4 & 5 Add electric control anti-roll bar + active steering

To clarify, 5 and 6 are actually the same thing? @inlinesix

I've always had a soft spot for the 3 series gran turismo, even though purists always found it awkward. And it's pretty rare too. 

Saw these 2 listings: 

328 n20 https://www.sgcarmart.com/used_cars/info.php?ID=1321115

320 b48 https://www.sgcarmart.com/used_cars/info.php?ID=1313241&DL=1228&utm_content=SLeligible

both around 2 years to go and seems low mileage and good condition

which will you go for?

For context i've owned VW and Audi more than 10+ years, currently driving 2015 Q5. Thinking of getting a BMW for short time (1-2years) before all these cars are gone and have to go EV

 

Just to update I've gotten the dec16 320GT.

I want to update owner details and get the previous history from pml, but I've heard they don't share. So thinking will just send in for oil change and check. Or it's waste of time and money?

Also, is there any bmw f34/f30 telegram or WA grp?

Kum siah and have a good Sunday!
