Your pick for a $30k out the door coupe

I like the sti hatch and the si sedan in that price range. Both run on premium fuel though.

shit this thread was a good idea. Even though I used to have a 335i a few years ago neither of us had even considered a BMW as an option for him. I guess we were thinking of BMW's as being way beyond the limit we set, but a used 328 would work. Normally aspirated V-6 would provide decent power and fuel economy, but also not require premium fuel.

It's an inline six, BMW doesn't make a V6.

If your choosing between an Altima and a Mustang GT...the answer is ovbious in my opinion...MUSTANG GT!!! Have you considered a Nissan 350z or 370z? Those are some very nice coupes. You can find decked out 2010's for 30k and a decked out 350z for 20-25k.

Now those 370z are sick

That inline six has been around for a long time with BMW. Absolutely great motor, with enough power for anyones needs and reliability like no other. Mind you thats if you take "preventative" measures beyond an oil change and filling up the washer fluid, lmao.

All of this is moot until Mr. Rottenwillow goes out and takes some test drives.

I have a genesis coupe 3.8 grand touring and love it. But wish I got the track

Moot would be a comment about the configuration of the six cylinders. Thankfully no one was enough of a gadfly to have done such a thing.

I've already decided the Infiniti G35 is going to be my next car. It's basically the 350Z with some nicer features.

It's an issue that BMW apparently feels very strongly about. It's not just that they don't make a V6, but that they won't.
