E46 vs E90

At first I thought the new 3 Series (E90) was a dud when compared to the E46 in the looks department. the E46 just seems like one of those cars that will look good for years to come. This has been the case with most past BMWs. I am not sure what time will do to the sharp creases that BMW favors now, but I will say that the new 3 is growing on me. It certainly offers a lot of cool features and, as always, ups the power quotient.

Someone but together a great comparison of the two here. I agree wholeheartedly that the E90 has one of the worst cup holder designs ever ... although those crazy Scandinavians at SAAB seem to be pretty good at engineering an ergonomic beverage disaster.

Thanks to Kristopher Lindquist for doing this review. I enjoyed reading something other than a magazine article where the journalists are more focused on finding a cute or clever remark to make than providing insight an everyday driver can appreciate.
