This little paragraph was compiled from two posts on the BEN messageboard, and edited by me, but the real credit must go to the authors: Tim Thurber, and an unknown Bimmer-phile.
Things I love about my car:
I love the fact that no other car I've driven has steering like mine.� The steering is twitchy... in a fun way. I love the fact that no matter what kind of turn I take, the body barely even thinks about leaning.� I love the kind of eccentric whine my engine makes whenever it is running, which only gets better with more RPMs... the sound of the engine; it sounds like no other except that Porsche down the street.� No other car gives me the feeling I get when I'm driving my Bimmer...
I love the way guys think it's cool and girls think it's cute.� I love the fact that adults look at me like they can't believe I'm getting into a BMW.� I love the look on people's faces when I tell them it's 13 years old and then hearing them repeat what I just said in the form of a question.� I love the way that 99% of the people that get in my car ask what that little thing is under the tachometer and them stare at it for a minute as I make it go up and down and then they say it's cool.� I love the way the sub vibrates my brake pedal.� The way it looks when it's parked alone... when it sits by itself with the wheels cocked at an angle, it looks like it will eat you alive.� I'm glad I have this car, and I can still say that even after all the painful, exhausting hours I have put into it, and the fact that I am broke because of it, I still love it.� And sure, maybe someday I'll get an E46 or E39, but I don't know if I could ever sell my E30.� Either way, the days of owning the E30 will always be remembered with a smile.
