I have driven numerous BMWs but have never owned one. I ordered my own on April 3rd. It is a M440i xDrive Gran Coupe. I cannot wait.

2001 330xi bought new. My longest kept and highest mileage owned vehicle to date.

2012 118i f20, alpine white
Enjoyed RWD during long winter seasons, car surprised me with reliability ))

[3002 tii]

Can’t recall if I posted here but I bought my first Bimmer 15 years ago. At the time I told myself I wouldn’t mod it

My father owned a small used car dealership for like 35 years. I grew up on it and later worked at through high school and college.

One morning on the way to the lot he told me that he parked all the cars I could choose from on the front row as my first car. It was about 5-6 cars. It was pretty fun and exciting thinking about as I drove in to town with him.

He told me years later that he had put a ton of money into an old K5 blazer that he thought for sure I’d want. My best friend had one at the time. He detailed it, did all the maintenance and put new tires on it. It was white and was a looker.

When I looked in the car it had solid blue interior, as mid 80s commonly did. I just don’t like it.

Right next to it was a 1984 BMW 318i, black with tan interior. It had 154,000 miles back then, which was ALOT. The car was a dump compared to the other line up.

It cost $2,400 IIIRC, and my dad was going to sell it for $5,000. This was back in the mid 90s.

I loved that car after watching the e30s race in IMSA on tv. I thought this was my chance to have that.

The car has 100hp I believe and couldn’t hit 90mph downhill with a tailwind. Looking back perfect for a race dreaming teenager. After I got my 318i, my friend got rid of his K5, and then got a late 80s 325i convertible that I was super jealous of. Haha.

My fave was the E36 & the G80

The F80 was nice, but a lot of cloudnt tell the Tanz color but I got so many compliments. I had red guts six speed.
