I drive a 2005 Trailblazer 100 miles a day back and forth to work. The BMW sits in the garage most of the time.

I have a 530d E60 and do about 20,000 miles a year. I don't need it, but it makes 500 mile round trips and 18 hour days much better.
I would have loved a car like this as a first car. But really don't think a 200+ b.h.p. rear wheel drive car is the most suitable entry vehicle.

I only do around 6000 miles a year, have a mazda 6 as a company car, the bemmer sits on the driveway most of the time, only take it out on my day off. Of course I don't need an E60, but it brings me smile every time I jump into it. I work hard and I play hard too.

i sometimes think they the extra money in the bank account would be nice, but then when i drive it i say to myself "you worked hard to get this".
I could drive a cheap g35, or a 300c and be just fine but everytime i walk into the garage or outside to get in my car i still appreciate the way it glows.
Im 24 and now that i have bought this 530i i will never drive anything less. Looks like i better get back to work that way i can get that M5 im dreaming about!!

I could have bought a one year newer Saab 9-5 loaded to the titties for about $8,000 less but there's something special about the 5er. Besides, the opposite sex prefers BMW over most oher makes... and the other fellas are just plain jealous.
