Well here's how it goes. My dad is in a real hurry to buy a new car and he wants to go down tmr and put a down payment. I need your help deciding people. The one's were looking at is 2007 323i vs. 2007 G35 (design was encahnced from 2006)
Here are the pros/cons for each car tell me what you guys think
BMW 323i
http://bmw.ca/com/en/index_highend.html
pros
-It's a BMW =)
-It has a really refined ride, test drove it at 120 km felt like we were doing 50.
-Less maintainance, oil change is every 25000 km vs 5-6000 for infinity, brakes also need less work
-Run-flats although not too big of a deal
Cons
-The car looks cheap
-The interior is leatherette, not even real leather
-plastics on the inside are again cheap
Infinity G35

Pros
-306 hp engine
-Gorgeous dual exhaust
-17' rims
-great interior space
- real leather and more functional instrument panel
-nice engine note
Cons
-5 speed auto vs. 6 speed tiptronic in BMW
-2 grand more
-Suspension has less give, you feel more bumps in the road
We did consider other cars in this class but really it came down to these two..I realise i may have been biased, but you guys probably know plenty more about the cars then i do anyway, this was just the impression i got from a test drive and some time spent looking them both up. As always feel free to add any experiences or other info on the cars to help me make my decision.
