CA Boxster really nailed it. I've owned a 96' 328i Sedan, a 95' 325i Coupe and a 99' E36 Cab M3. All manuals. Liked all of them. BMWs are GREAT cars. Precise. But they just don't seem to have a soul, for a lack of a better way of putting it. That being said my 01 Boxster S manual handles better, accelerates better, sounds better, looks better, feels better. There's just no comparision. Its a completely different driving experience. I'm just not into the sedan-looking BMWs. Just lost interest in them for driving enjoyment. The cars' looks are important as well. Again, no comparision. I wouldn't mind driving a nice 5 or 7 series on my long commute every day though. They are big, roomy and comfortable with plenty of HP obviously. But they aren't sports cars...Everyone has their opinion though. My DD is a 11' Hyundai Sonata. I get 3 of out 4 with it. LOL. (Big, roomy, comfortable).
