I have a need to be different from the crowd. I still contend that my E60 is more environmentally friendly over the lifetime of the car than any hybrid ala Prius.

i could drive an 83 chevy chevette, but why the hell would i do that. i personally think one should earn a car like this, not be given on...

My 535 isnt just a car, but a symbol of my commitment to hard work and success. kids driving these cars given to them by their parents cheapens my image. call me a douchebag, but i worked my fucking ass off for my car and driving it is a reward for my sweat.

Just wondering this, has anyone got an E60 just for the fun? Like if your honest with yourself you could easily manage with say a smaller or less expensive car?
*raises hand*
Yes, my E60 is now a fifth car in my fleet (two drivers). I got the 335i Convertible last month, and have kind of ignored the E60. When I drive it, it still puts a smile on my face. I couldn't own anything other than a BMW. Once you drive own, there's no comparison.

It's just me in the e60 99% of the time. Whenever my family and I need to go somewhere we take my wife's Audi Avant. I would certainly be happy driving a 330 / 335 / M3 as well.

i have 2 E60's that i dont need and i want to sell one to buy a cayenne, as there at the lowest price i have ever seen at the moment, and i dont think they will get any lower.
i have a few cars and dont need any of them, but i love cars and modifying them.
with out a shadow of a doubt the E60 is the nicest and best car that i didnt need
if you had to score points for looks/performance/equptment and so on, the E60 would tick most box's for me.
but do i need one??? no...
im a label freak.......
