That song sounds like the sound track of an old porno movie.

People don't give him enough credit...
The new BMW's are bleh! They drive like shit, steering all over the place, heavy, bloated pigs, and that stupid kidney grill keeps getting bigger and bigger
Imo the greatest is:
Bmw 3.0 CSL and 2003/2004 M3 CSL
-
Hopefully, BMW with their new partnership with Toyota will bring back the M1.

I never got the BMW superiority attitude. Have you ever known a BMW that just ran with changing the oil? No, they are always in the shop for one reason or the other.

Not true at all. I drove mine for 2 years and never had a problem. Never and that was in 86

Drove it for two years and never had a problem. That's what you think reliability is?
When I was younger I had a Toyota for 17 years. Outside of brakes, filters, spark plugs, tires and oil changes the thing just ran perfect. Everything just worked. Then I sold it to a college kid and now it's running 21 years without a problem. A typical BMW from new to 10 years will have a lot of repairs and headaches.
I've had a lot of new cars. Mainly Ford Crown vics and a Dodge Durango. The last brand new Crown Vic I had the trans that went in 10k miles leaving me stranded. It was repaired and then worked perfectly. I also had problems with the Dodge Durango trans with under 40K miles slipping.
Since the majority of people rent cars for 2 to 3 years in general will not see problems of bad engineering or poor quality checking during manufacturing. If you buy a car instead of leasing you would be insane not have reliability as the number one feature you want.

Best car i ever owned was the bmw e38. it was the 730 with the small v8 but still awesome car

I love the m6 from that gen..e32/e34 m3 and m5's..e38 740i was a long and nice looking with m packaged rims but oil leaks were the norm,i worked with bmw 13 yrs and I saw everything 98/2010 ,,e65 745/75o came out the body design was a welcome from the older e38 but I saw cars not even make it out of parking lot on customer delivery with srs,trans faults,i drive issues ,programming was so advanced we had techs that only sat at programming stations all day to get them fixed..

there are lemons and there are great cars and there's always one of each from every line in every auto manufacturer.
I have a BMW I bought new in 09. I have 190k on it. all I have done is brakes at 120k oil and tires and just did the plugs last month. I had a suspension piece replaced this year but that due to the goat trail roads that I live on. the car has been nothing short of what a reliable well made car should be. not a squeak rattle or noise when driving even at hwy speeds up to 120. I would not hesitate to buy another one. I admit I bought it for the badge, but after having been so impressed w this car I'd buy it if it had a Kia badge on it instead. I have little doubt I'll pull another 100k out of it easily.
my gf has a 1998 ford f150 work truck she bought new. w just standard maintenance and some bearing work she's managed to put 500k on it. lol that blows my mind.
I think, and I don't know how it's possible, every once in a while a car rolls off the line that's indestructible. and then the car after it will need work every time you turn the key.
I'm hoping I got a 500k car. we'll see. the only way to win at the car game is to buy it and run that fucker till the wheels fall off and pray you get 15 years out of it. fingers crossed. :D

ALL I've done on mine 105,000 starter,alternator just last week,battery,oil,and fr and rear pads/rotors.plugs I have to do should be done 100k..tires last yr I got it with 54,000 5 yrs ago..

I have yet to do a starter alternator or any frequent use part like that. I've been lucky but the total sum of my milage is all hwy so my brakes and parts that wear from use seem to be holding up well.
my run flats lasted for ever. must be the compound they use they wore really well.

Well, you guys tend to treat your cars better. And the 80s BMW were better in terms of quality.

In those 2 years I put about 100k km on it. I just got my license so you can imagine how exited I was driving legally.
I lived in the Alps /mountains so almost all my driving back there was very demanding. Not to speak of extreme colds in the wintertime when everything freezes and you have to drive steep mountain roads. Engine takes a real beating from cooling down to freezing. then warming up again and so on 5 times a day.
I took it to Barcelona and back in the winter and all kinds of crazy places.
That car I knew I could trust. It never gave me any kind of a problem. How I know it was a good car ? I bought also a Renault Alpine A310 before the BMW.
After 5 days the cooling system already failed and then electric problems etc.etc. I sold it after 2 months because I was always worried to brake down some where and be stranded. I went thru many cars over the years incl. Jaguar, Ford 150 Mercedes 560sl and more ... but I think I loved the 635 CSi the most. Because I remember it as the times when everything was easy back then and the car did exactly what I wanted it do .The only reason I sold it was because I moved to Los Angeles but it was very hard for me to let go of it.
I just "cant" say anything bad about the BMW 635Csi. Telling this experience makes me almost want to get another one and race thru Europe again.lol

That's true on both. Taking care of my cars was my yoga !

I have trouble believing what you wrote unless there is a misunderstanding. You did no brake maintenance on a BMW until 120K? A Ford pick up went 500k with standard maintenance? That is an insane anomaly.

I HATE RUNFLATS for simple reason a bubble and you have to change tire and plugging them is not recommended,if you buy/lease a new bmw/merc/or any runflat tire vehice getting tire insureance is a must!runflats on smooth road are great but hit a bump hard or pothole and the whole car feels like it will blow apart,i had a 335 a rocket it had runflats and it felt every bump.

My car has 250k miles on the clock and the brake pads and discs were only changed once.
Clutch has never been changed and still is rock solid. I know people who change clutches every 50k miles lol.
Highway driving or city driving makes a huge difference.

lol what do I have to gain from lying? if anything on this board Im 100% truthful.
like cholo said those are kms. perhaps that might make it a bit more digestible for you. however it doesn't change the facts I stated. :D
oh and that brake maintenance was just pads, not rotors. :)

they are def not the most comfortable riding tire altho I didn't mind them as in the summer I run a 19" rim w a non runflat low profile staggered fitment 235r19 up front 265r19 in back and the rides were comparable.

Had many of them, BMWs are top cars... At least until few years ago, it's true that recent models are like boats in corners, bad steering and suspensions... They still had monstrous engines though... Between them had a 2006 335i Coupè, beautiful, horrible in corners, but the twin turbo engine was unbelievable, owned many sports car in straight line... Also had a 130i M, great car... Currently have an E46 M3, one of the greatest car ever made, period...

Believe me, the M3 E46 is pure awesomeness... Wanted the mighty CSL, but it's pricey, so ended up with the "basic" model... There is also a rare CS model... E60 M5, tried it, both sedan and station wagon, that F1-like 10 cylinders engine is a monster... You simply can't go wrong with those M series...

With the Coupè Twin Turbo it was fun in straight lines, raped many Imprezas Sti and Lancers Evo, tuned also... A friend of mine has the old 400hp E39 M5, love it... Agreed about the E60 530, great car, elegant with superb engine...

I like your knowledge here,,,what saves me is I have e60 with e39 engine m54 is a beast easy to repair.twin turbo inline 6 is where they had trouble.lifters.waste gates,turbo,hi pressure fuel pump,pressure sensors all or most had to be replaced in later 3/5 series..now single turbo 4 cyl is new to there market,,,what do u think of the 4 series?great lines I think..

e30, e24, e28, great looking cars love the square designs.
Would love to have a e30 or e24 and fit a nice big engine, s38b38 or turbo'd M50.

Beautiful.
I remember seeing a lot of vintage BMWs from the classic era in top condition near where I lived - all driven by older dudes from well off neighbor hoods which stopped by at the post office under me.
I literally was living the dream from my kitchen window. :D

Good luck with all the fuel pump issues ;D
N54 motor was a beast , much better tuning than n55
S55 is more similar to n54 on f80 m3 so that's a good thing
M5/m6 engines are hard to crack as well (ecu) Mercedes AMG m157 I think it's called with that 5.5 turbo is much better

My buddy kev that used to post , don't see him much in here since he's always busy now has a badass supercharged e92 M3. Car puts out like 650 Hp! Insanely fast

Yea I know , I personally don't like turbocharging on high revving motors, imo takes the fun outta them, supercharge is the way to go 8)
But NA is the best!
Lambos huracan is prob the last of the NA cars a long with GT3's and stingray vettes
Ferrari is doing the twin turbo on next yrs 458 :'(

How about that beauty? Im guessing its a 1937. R17 Not to many around anymore

yeah, the GTs are fucking hideous looking things designed for the Chinese that BMW decided to foist on the US
they look like a Crosstour, and the new Aztek-flashback X4 is just as disgusting. I don't know who the hell is buying them but apparently BMW thinks they're 'cooler' than the touring for the US market.

saw one about 2 months ago.. on it's roof on the side of a freeway offramp. it fell off the back of a flatbed towtruck. must've been a moving day for somebody since there was what looked to be an original ford GT40 on a flatbed pulled off behind it.

Miss the 335i Twin Turbo too, and never had a single problem, not even at the fuel pump, mine was a 2006 model... I console myself with the M3... ;D I like the new 4 series, good lines...
