Driving
Awesome experience, poise and balance superb. A real drivers car.
Performance
0-60 in 4.5 seconds? Scarily fast on the sraight and through corners.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems apart from exhaust fell off.
Image
Ok, but everyone's got one nowadays and everyone with a 316 has a M3 or alpina bodykit fitted so not exclusive.
Comfort
Nice on good, smooth roads but obviously it's a sports car and a hard ride comes as standard.
