YOU LIE!!! You bastard man!

Ok...a BMW 330ci for sale on E-bay......Click Here




Ok 1. ci Means the car is a COUPE hence C...that car has 4 doors so the ci really is an i....

2. In the written description it says the engine is a 2.5 liter Now a 330 means the car is a 3 series with a 3.0 liter engine. Now it is a 325ci but wait refer to number on so it is a 325i...

3. When you look at the trunk lid on the back the numbers say 323i so the engine is really a 2.3 liter engine!!!

Whoops! Someone is doing some false advertising.

Uhm, the badge on the back of the car doesn't ALWAYS stand for the engine displacement, in this case, it was all marketing. The (current gen) 3-Series 323i uses a 2.5L I6 motor that produces 170HP, 172LB-FT TQ. There's no "2.3L"
