True dat.

Every car has at least some flaws. It could be design, reliability, ride, price, durability -- whatever.

The thing that keeps me coming back to the 3 Series -- not the 5 and, oh no, never the 7 -- is that it is on balance the best car I've ever driven. To paraphrase Car and Driver, you could spend more to go a little faster (or get a completely blacked-out extended display) or a little less to save some coin, but nothing else comes close to the 3's overall capabilities, engineering and fun.

Every time I get in my car (less often these days because I don't drive it in the snow), I marvel at it. It's mostly a computer these days -- the wheels are largely there to prevent the computers from scraping the ground -- and it's the most bitchin' computer with wheels I have ever been in or driven.
Have you driven the baby veyron gtr? 991 with antiroll program? Those are amazing computers! Lol
