The e46 clutch (at least the 330i's that I was used to), were springy, long travel with high engagement. The e90 had better clutches. The shifters are smoother & more precise as well (again for the non-M). Also, you are spot on in terms of solidity. The e9X is a much more solid car, what you are feeling is not only due to the lesser miles. Negatives for the e9x: - Interior design. Worse cupholders, flat Buick dash (before Buicks were Opels) - Exterior. Not as bad as the interior, but not as classic/faultless as the e46 - Runflats and no room for a donut - M became v8 (an awesome one but dropped hwy range dramatically) |
