143-horsepower with 190 Nm of torque. 0-100 km/h in 8.8 seconds (M/T) and 9.3 (A/T). Top speed is 210 km/h for both M/T and A/T variants.? ?:ohyeah:

OMFG, how does it even keep up with traffic?!?  :confused:

I am surprised your parents bought such an unsafe car.  :nono:

In all seriousness though, the 118i is more fuel efficient than the 116i. The only reason BMW continues producing the 116i is for, I quote the salesman: "Grandpa and grandma who have a problem with a car that has more than 200-horsepower..."  :devil:

My sister's 118i doesn't have the start-stop function: only available with a stick.... :cry:


I knew a guy, a teen, who said his parents ACCORD was "too powerful" for him.  :huh:

Okay, tell me who's better.

I can think of:
1. Raza
2. Lebowski
3. Farris

:confused: John has an E-type, and doesn't Sander have a 335? 565 has a Z06, and NomisR an Elise. There are also a few people on the board with M3s.

Depending on price, that could be a good deal.

Is your A4 a better car than the E90?

This thing barely keeps up with the traffic. When going uphill, some passengers have to get out and push it up!

I can see what he means. With VTEC and Type-R stickaz, those Accords become really fast!

There's also a GTO, a few Mustang GT's, and a GTI.
