[s-cars] Truth vs. Joy

[Joe Pizzimenti]

No one buys new BMW's.  They're the ultimate leasing machines.

You can get a 750i for 1500 a month.  Or an X6M.  Or an M6.

BMW in my book is a bit funny. I can't think of one I'd buy given any
particular price range, but I can think of dozens that I love to work
on because of the test drive. Given the money to buy a newer 3 or 5er
I'd rather buy a Renault R5 Turbo2 or a 914 with a 3.6l engine swap.
Given the money to buy a newer ///M of any type and I'd much much
rather buy a 996tt.

If I HAD to have a BMW it would be an e30 M3 with an M54 swap or
anything with the 3.5ltt power plant. But then to me any car that's
supposed to be fun basically should be pre-OBDII for ease of
modifying. A DD for the female part of the family doesn't need to be
anything other than BIG (our A8 seems cramped sometimes) and
prefarably AWD.
