no offense meant towards your bimmer of course. i just thought I would share a picture showing two cars separated by 30 years.
I'm not keen on the newer BMWs. The E39, the 500 series approx. '96 to '03 is the last one of the modern models that I like. I've heard numerous times that serious Bimmer heads prefer the E30 model that I have, the 325i. I didn't know this when I bought it, just lucked out. The parts man at a nearby BMW dealer told me that about half of their service techs drive an E30 for their main car. Has a more raw connection to the road.
