True, by the time the BMW breaks savings from servicing on the Honda would cancel out getting the BMW's electronics fixed.

Yea, that is true. From people who have owned them, some have no problems, whereas some have a lot. Really seems to be a "did you get a good one or not?".

Looks like we will get the BMW, our relative seems more undecided as to whether to trade now so if she does, we will buy it.

Ex in-laws..... Nothing better than a old man bitching about a Honda service for 4 hours straight at a family BBQ....
Beers were involved.

Because u have the standard Euro, I'm gonna say go for the BMW cos it seems you like the perks and gadgets of the BMW. if you had a Euro luxury on the other hand I'd definitely keep that! my GF has the 2005 E90 320i (auto), I drive it fairly often, but I find it so sluggish coming out of the Euro! fuel economy isn't heaps better than the euro anyway! she averages 10L/100kms
The Euro just feels like a better all rounder!..... If I were you I'd sell your car, but not for the BMW, for a Euro Luxury

Yea, I do like to have more features, main features I want are leather, HIDs and mp3 connection (which the Euro Luxury has 2/3 of and can get the mp3 connection aftermarket).

Do you have a manual or auto euro btw?

really interesting sceanrio you are in..........
I actually traded my 2006 e90 320i for an Accord Euro
two reasons for it, i was getting back all my money i bought the beamer for and i had 3 issues that if they came back would be expensive to fix if they did happen, what made me sad was the car only had done 36k kms, and already played up a little, other than that i found not enough power some times, but loved the car totally, it had such a nice finish and feel of things and quality of parts was very high, just not reliable i guess? so went with Euro with a heavy heart that i may miss the bmw alot (which i do) but the power on the Euro is amazing compared to the 320i, its more refined and more trouble free although in saying that im facing a possible gear bearing sound at 70K kms already on the euro.....i think if i were you speak to Oz crowd on e90post.com and than make your decision, the car sounds like a really nice package, best would be to have warranty with it than u dont care.........
all the best keen to hear what you do
if i get a chance i would look at a 320d or 325i or 330i e90 shapes still next year when my lease ends.......but brain says IS250........
beamer specialist tells me that diesels are more reliable for some reason with bmw
