    Default new to the stable

    Picked-up a 2005 silver G-35 Coupe two weeks ago, primarily for business write-off. Has all options except for posi and the 19in wheels. Quite impressed with it, has gobs of torque and 280 HP to spare. Drove the 330 and frankly was not as impressed- great car, but not as much fun as the G. Plus, the G was substantially cheaper, enough for a vacation to Cabo. I still have my 1990 535i 5 speed (love it) and don't plan on ever selling it, but don't think I will ever buy another new BMW.

    Your straightforward post should be sent to BMW to show why they're losing customers to Infinity and Audi -congrats on the new ride. It's sad to watch them sellout their history of performance and style for blase' mass appeal.
    You write "Born to Kill" on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?

    That question is a little unfair to the e34. The e34 is nice, but its 15 years old compared to a new luxury car.
