Huh? It's a perfect comparo. The figures I gave were negotiated capital cost, not MSRP.

 

What? I not know dat word. Wassat? Snow? Wassat? Rain?

I LIVE IN SAN DIEGO!!!

Muwahahahahaaaaaa!

 

You have no way of computing that considering the car has not even cleared customs. I just checked mine and none have cleared yet. Also no bank in the world will touch Mitsu's money factor on a mitsu. You can't even use a 6000 rebate and loyalty combined using say chase or us bank rates on an 03 Diamante whoring at invoice and touch the old mitsu 03 diamante lease with no rebate. There is no doubt the Bimmer will lease better. But there is also no 330i that is half a second behind an Evo. You can't compare a 14 second car to a low 13 second car. As far as safety prove your bimmer is safer. You can't. Crash tests are the most useless piece of data available and are very misleading. They crash the cars one time, that's it. Who's to say it would perform aswell a second time or as poor. The fact is all cars today are safe and are mandated by federal guidelines. You could die in a bimmer just as easily as you could live through an Evo oe vice versa. Pick your car based on what you like. If you want to go fast get an Evo. If you want an average at best all around car get the bimmer. Let's face it if you can afford either car, you are producing fine in life and 20 or 50 dollars a month isn't going to make a bit of difference. Time is by far your most important asset.


The evo gets pretty good lease for the 04 year... It can be had for about 400-430 a month depending on how Good you are at negiotiating [/B][/QUOTE]

 

It seems like you made up your mind and I'm not sure why you're even posting here. Go get your 330 and be happy. Although I must say you are wrong if you think the 330 even comes close to the Evo any performance category. .5 seconds slower to 60? with the right launch the Evo can do 0-60 in the mid 4 second range so you are saying the 330 can do it 5 seconds? no way and that's just acceleration, what about handling? Even the M3 can barely hang w/ an Evo on a road course. As for safety I doubt the 330 is any safer than the Evo, the Evo's brakes alone can make it a safer car to drive. Before you ask yes I've driven a 330, an M3 and I own a Evo. IMO, you should not be shopping the 330 and the Evo as they are worlds apart. Both cars have their purpose and you should know which one you want and not even think about the other.

 

 

where did u guys see that there going to start leasing Evo's? My dealer said for the '03 Evos that they werent leasing them b/c of such a low residual. which is preventing me from getting an evo in the next year. i leased my RSX, and i want to lease my next car, and i want the Evo lol, dont force me into a STi or 350Z just cause i can get them on lease.

 

hehehe I passed one of those 330i things trying to outrun me after holding me up on a two lane highway pass. He was a dog until like 70-80, but I still walked passed him. Of course I have quite a bit more power (330ish) On the twisties my car seems to do just fine. Not as good as a miata I have driven, but what do you expect. I can squeel the tires in this car without pooping my pants too... gotta love that.
