Ak7887 1st Gear February 6, 2023 Share February 6, 2023 @oleoleole Go test drive it 🙂 It's a different feel than F48, totally. Power wise, don't be too fooled by paper stats. The car is larger than the previous one, yet felt more nimble, quieter, and smoother even with stock rims at 19". It's difficult to explain. Test it and you'll find the car pleasantly surprising. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
riot168 1st Gear February 26, 2023 Share February 26, 2023 @Ak7887 I bought it .. the U11. nice to drive, don't think the stats is correct .. LOL. The acceleration to 60 is very fast. I thought I got 48V battery with eboost. Anyway, does your front passenger seat has electric adustment? I'm rather surprised .. and also I just discovered the front passenger seat is MANUAL Adjustment for a $200k+ car. OMFG..... really very embarrassing to buy entry level conti .. HAR! No electric seat?! Even entry level jap car also have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the u11 M-sport b38 engine. while driving ..., Hold the boost paddle and the countdown appears on dashboard .. then step on accelerator and overtake the car in front. really got boost. why 10 seconds? coz if you cant overtake in 10seconds, means the car in front more power.. hehe you should give up.

riot168 1st Gear February 26, 2023 Share February 26, 2023 (edited) @ER-3682 I tried the EV. If i need the power, i think straight away jump to EV the next round. Not BMW EV... Some other brand EVs within my budget of course Edited February 26, 2023 by riot168 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife 216i GC cost less but got 6 airbags and 2 electric seats. 😞 Anyway, it's ok. I bought the car and I think I will just wait for an appropriate time to trade in.

Sometime,because of the Targeted OMV in the Stupid Singapore,BMW reduced the Equipments,also because of the Cat A COE allowed only below 130 Bhp,BMW Asia have to ask Factory to "Detuned" the Cars.

AriesGoat 5th Gear February 27, 2023 Share February 27, 2023 Hi, it comes with 6 airbags actually. And yes, the car is surprisingly nimble for its size and engine tuning. Quite a surprise and pleasant to drive in terms of handling and power. Of course, not to mention it’s features such as park assist for parallel, reverse parking, real time traffic information, weather, news and all other services (MyBMW App) that comes with the car and it’s rear bench that can slide forward 13cm if needed for practicality. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Good to know it's 6 airbags, safety is paramount for me. Airbags are a necessity in this time and age. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
