That's the problem with facelifting a car, that is already not very good looking. The facelift version is much better in terms of design, then the Sportcoupé, but it still looks a bit weird.

IMO there's nothing wrong with the exterior but my only problem is with the interior which looks modern and on par with rivals in segment but i expected the new interior,guess we all will have till 2010 for the all new model.

The Benz is soooooooo overpriced. 28k is ridiculous, add a few options, trim package and you'll be in the 35 region.

Yeah, but it has an automatic transmission.

I disagree with AMS here saying the 118i engine doesn't feel lively, it does (even on my sister's 118i with A/T). Only at high speeds does the engine run out of breath. So around 180 km/h it slows down a lot and takes awhile to reach 200 km/h. I've maxed out my sister's 118i at 230 km/h+ (which is weird since the BMW website says top speed is 210 km/h ).
