I'm going to buy a tube radio so we can huddle round it and, by the light of a single candle, listen to President Obama's fireside chats.

After you wake up with the sun at 6am on someone's floor, coughing up cigarette butts and tasting like warm beer, you may well change your opinion on this matter.

Uh...so...my choices for best car are a BMW, a Corvette, and a 911?  The BMW doesnt' even compete with the other two, which are much more expensive.  Is this best overall car?  Or...wtf...?  :huh: :lockedup:

The Bimmer is the most practical sports car killer and it's the cheapest, so I picked it.  But don't think for a second that I wouldn't get a 911 over it in a heartbeat.

What else could I choose?  The 335i?  How could the best car be one I would never spend money on?  The Corvette?  It's an awesome car, but the 911 is better.

It wasn't meant as praise.  I mean you can't admit that a BMW is a better car for the simple reason that it's a BMW.  I voted for cars in these polls that I personally would never spend my own money on because I can admit that they are better cars then the ones I actually would buy.  My reasons for buying a certain car aren't always based on if the car is better or not.

The BMW isn't a better car.  It's a luxury car with sport thrown in.  It's compromised.  It's clearly the worst car here.  And I wouldn't spend money on it because it's not worth it.  To me, the 328i is a better value.  You already know that outright speed isn't all that important to me, and I'd rather have a car that's lighter and more connected than one that's faster.  The 335i has no added value to me over a 328i, and therefore I cannot consider it a better car. 

Don't fucking try to call me out on bullshit like this.

You're on crack. :P

The 335i is the perfect blend of power, performance, handling, useability of any two door car I've ever been in.  The backseat is actually useable, the handling and performance is first rate and power is in abundance.  You might think it's a compromised car, but you'd be wrong.  It's the perfect blend.

it probably is more civilized and better for every day use than the other two (not to say you can't DD the vette or the 911)

I think I just said how it's better.  It's the perfect blend of all that matters in a two door car.

What is the point of the 335i?  Might as well just get a 330i.  Plenty of power, and you save a considerable amount of cash.
