JustinNck1 Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Why do you need your mirrors to fold? Do you park street side that much? I get it, it's cool, just never seen the use of it. When I worked at a dealership, the Caddillac's had the mirrors turn down when in reverse. That was kinda nice to watch out for curb checks.

My 2004 explorer also did that and turn on the puddle lights on the exterior. Yea, an M5. Super GAY. Oh ffs every car in the world unlocks and turns on the lights when you press the fob you f'ing nitwit. I never have to touch my fob the whole time I drive it. And FTFY.

While, I'm pretty sure you still would never buy one, you wouldn't be able to tell me they are not, awesome driving cars. I've driven 2016/2017 cars that still didn't have the same driver feel and quality as the 2001 I had.

I've driven 6 different models of BMW extensively and gotten test drives in 3 other ones. Hands down my favorite car manufacturer to drive for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTheAzn Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 As they've gotten newer they've become less drivers cars imo. My M5 had sport mode on or off and T/C on or off. That's it. No varying level of traction control, no launch control. Just those two buttons and a man pedal. Still, BMW's are still some of the best on the road feeling cars out there. Of course I'm excluding anything to do with cost of ownership. Which can be higher but in my experience still not as high as Mercedes or Audi.

Now because my kid has a huge checkbook he can pull low 10's just by sitting there and mashing the pedal to the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally haven't owned any because I'm too cheap. My Mom and Step-dad however have owned all non M: 3 generations of 3 series, a 5 series, a 6 series an X5 and an X3 now. 0 problems with any of them. Would have had an M6 in that collection but my stepdad passed away in March of 2014. He had plans that summer to finally get the M6 we got to borrow from the dealership for a day.

I kick myself to this day for not buying one.
