2007 428i coupvertible®

The manufacturer made a deal with my dealership to give me one of those for over 2 months (same color even) when I had a lemon and my new car was on order. I loved it! I must admit I hated it when I first got in it, but after I was zipping through terrible traffic on the backroads for the first 2 hours, I absolutely loved it. I got used to it's styling and all wheel drive. It's fairly practical....taller...easier to get into....and has a nice boot.

How is your reputation 90?

Thank you Mike, that's exactly the case.

I won't apologize for the way I acted in my 30's on the interweb, it was fun for awhile for a lot of people, but then the sensitive types got all enraged and it became more trouble than it was worth to keep up the persona so I stopped.

The irony is that BJ is no longer on that other site, and those who wanted him gone are the very ones who are stalking me over here. I've got them on ignore, they'll get no responses from me, better for others to do likewise.

The irony is joewalton/boltjames was BANNED from the other site. At least twice, if not more. joe/bj - you earned your banning and you act like it was caused by forum members. Take some responsibility for you own actions.

It's a free country and you may voice your opinion. I love the 3GT and I am getting one. See you around in MA.

How dare you show a picture of that beautiful Mercedes!

What a lovely car Benz has made. Can't wait to see them on the street. Those doors will really show dings though...

Some of the comments are hilarious.

"Then there’s the 4 Series, which is primarily a coupe or a convertible. But there’s also a four-door version, called the Gran Coupe, which looks exactly like the 3 Series Gran Turismo."

Wait...what?

Still reading but;

There’s the 3 Series, which is a four-door car. But there are also two separate 5-door versions of this vehicle that BMW is hoping we won’t notice. Based on sales figures, I think we’re doing a pretty good job.

LMAO

Spit water all over the monitor.
