That is horribly untrue.  However, the 1 series is passable.

I'll let her drive my BMW.  :devil:

Seriously, though, it's a nice car.  Best of luck to her with it.  :praise:

Wimmer, she has better taste than you. I absolutely love the E87.

So Wims, how do you feel, you're having your favorite manufacturer's nemesis parked in your driveway?

Variety is good. Now I have an excuse to visit the local BMW dealership and testdrive some Bimmers.  :lol:

I like the 1-Series, always thought it was a cool car and the styling has recently grown on me, especially with the recent facelift.  :mrcool:

BMW is cool. Beats a Lexus!  :devil:

All BMW's are taxis.
There's a reason Infinitis don't come in white.

Keep in mind if you guys are going to keep it for a while, the auto transmission is going to need to be replaced or rebuilt most likely.

2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

She'll hate diesel passenger cars, all things Ford, and fiat currency.  They will masturbate to old interviews of Ayn Rand an youtube together.

And my BMW automatic is still in great shape at 150k miles. And it's a great car to drive.
Like a fine Detroit wine, this vehicle has aged to budgetary perfection...

Whoa!  Great looking car.  The white and the body kit looks excellent. :ohyeah:

I want a manual too but it's my sisters car. Plus, my mom will probably use it from time to time and she's a total "need an automatic" lady. Besides, I derive my fun from the way the car feels and handles, not the type of transmission in it. The manual Toyota Corolla or Kia Price or Hyundai Elentra I drove for example were just plain boring to drive despite having a manual.

Why is this car unavailable here?  I like it. 

Because the average luxury buyer who goes for the badge and has no idea about brand heritage will probably think "CHEAP" and then write BMW off his shopping list. :devil:

By the way, looks like the M Sportpackage is coming off. My dad just doesn't like it.
