I love BMW

I am so amazingly in love with BMW. I've been doing a lot of research lately on the E46 M3 and E39 M5. I'm completely amazed. I absolutely LOVE the M5. Beautiful cars, great power, great performance, great handling, great quality. I just can't seem to find any flaws in them.

I used to HATE luxury cars altogether; especially Mercedes-Benz. Although, recently, I'm beginning to like luxo-performance cars more and more. I think I've officially lost it, lol.

Also, if anyone else here is into BMWs as well, you should check out this link.

Yup, great cars. I have owned 3 of them. Swore I would never drive anything else...then we got pregnant. Oh well...my son is worth much more than a car anyway. I will buy another someday...just not anytime soon.

Yah, I need to get another BMW as well. My first car was a '97 Z3 2.8. It got totaled. I was t-boned by a Ford Windstar. So, now I've got the Civic. *sigh* I WILL own a BMW again, lol.

I love BMW's too. The M5 is just an all around amazing car. The best looking sedan in the world. Too bad they came out with the shitty 5 series now...

Heck yeah! BMW & M Technics = God.

You thinkin' about turbocharging your '95 M, jonnyg? From what I've read, the Active Autowerks turbo kit puts out some HUGE numbers.

The ULTRA RARE Stick Wagon (BMW estimates at most a few hundred are imported each year, in 2002 they sold 132,000 3 series cars). Ya can't even tell, it drives like a hatchback. Soooooo smooth, my only beef is my civic has a shorter shift throw. Beyond that, its a fuggin blast... and its AWD.



... and the S62 engine fits in the E46 I smell hella sleeper coming on. imp:

Do they make an M3 replica body kit for the wagon? I think that'd look really awesome.

I'm not too thirilled about the new body styles... Too bubly, look like Volvos.

I like this one, The E30 M3 the First and only M3 designed as a race car first and then modified to be street legal......

I believe you can now lease a 300 series for $289.00/month. At least, that's what they've been advertising in the commercials...

yeah with like $3500 down. I agree, I don't care for the new body styles. An E34 M5, E36 M3 Convert in Estoril Blue <drool>, or an E24 M6. I would prefer all 3 of course...I would need to have a bigger garage though.
