Ok, which car would you buy and why?
And don’t just say because the other one is garbage.
Are there any problems with either of these cars that a buyer should be aware of?

2

BMW makes the worlds worst AWD system, so… anything other than the bimmer.

3

Reliability or performance or both?

4

idk if thats true you see many old awd bimmers still around on the road today it can’t be that bad

^I had a 325IX and loved it but, I don’t even know if it is the same AWD system today.

And reliability. BMW AWD sucks.

12

I have read a little about each car and it sounds like both cars send the torque to the rear wheels unless there is slip.:gotme:
I still haven’t found anything about BMW AWD failure but I am still searching.

13

Why is BMW AWD so bad? It’s hard to believe that a company so performance engineering focused could screw up a component that crucial…

14

m35x because japanese reliability pwns

15

Because BMW agrees with me, and doesnt care about anything other than RWD.

16

The thing is, I know a guy that bought an Infinity from someone he knew kept up with maintanance but he still eneded up putting $8,000 into it!!!

17

You’re so smart.:stuck_out_tongue:

18

I worked at the infiniti dealer for a while…Get the BMW its a better car.

19
