Have your say? Why bmw?

RWD, was told of fantastic drivers car, handling too

What has nationality got to do with it? Does anyone buy a car by where it's made or who owns the company these days?

Yup. If you prefer RWD there's little other choice on a limited budget. Of the few there are, choosing a BMW is a no-brainer. Mike.

I'm still wondering every time I have to touch that f***ing I-thing in the central console. Drives great. Lousy cupholders.

TBH I can't see their purpose. I would never drive with a cup of liquid in them, and if you're stationary who needs them. If they provided somewhere to put a cup that is otherwise non existant OK, but the front holders in my E39 are hardly necessary IMO. Mike.

All my cars have been RWD, thats a must...but then i have have much cash so for years always had old Celicas, bags of cheap fun

i said why out of all german cars did you choose bmw, i didnt say why did you choose a german car, other countries produce other types of cars, havn't you notice? german are more into the sides of richness with leather trim wood grain, cars arnt particurly quick, arnt really meant for speed but can, but we all know why their known mostly for. As for other countrys they have their own style, i asked why you choose that specific car out of germany.

And there is no such thing as a 'German car type'.

So a Jaguar doesn't have rich wood and leather trim? Or a Porsche isn't made for speed?

I wonder why?

Wow. I don't think the Germany on our planet is the same as the one you're discussing. epbrown

My daughter lives in England and loves her BMW. She loves the RWD, and remarks on how great the car is in handling as well. I live in the US and I am very tempted to buy a BMW for myself, not sure what model yet. Helen

Wow a girl understanding RWD over a FWD..never seen that before, not much differance in normal driving but for pleasure i only like RWD....my old beemer gave me pleasure from the minute i had her, not many cars have done that, even much more powerful ones...infact my old tiny dead underpowerd car was fun.

Thanks, I taught her everything she knows about cars, she's only 21, but it's invaluable to know these things especially being so far away from home. We're both Beemer fans. Helen

you are more facinated in debating, as E-Brown showed, he understood what i was saying.

You're a prime example of what's wrong with education today.

and your a prime example of an asshole

A nice blue one? ;-)

For sure!! It has to be a blue one! :^)

Because I (still) cannot afford myself a Porsch.

That depends. If one is prepared to drop one's blinkers there is the three-pointed star (despite your implication...).
