I work at BMW and I must say they are real sweet rides. My personal fave ride is the new Z4 but in the winter they suck a$$. 18's and snow don't mix well.

They probably mix better than the top down and snow. 3 series' are nice.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG] I have to throw in a "my mommie has a bemer". Sorry. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG] Its a 01 325 Ci ...black..coupe..5spd....fun thing to drive around. Pretty darn quick too.

Against an EX yes you will get worked by the beemer - however those cars are pretty slow compared to most - compared to a honda though its a quick race

Compared to a Corvette yes (I found that out myself), but not most other cars.
