I think bill knows what I am talking about.
even top gear say this too
well 525 used to be called a old mans car but now it can not.

So then a Porsche Carrera GT is a hair dresser car? If i could afford one, then i dont car what people call me!

They called Boxster hair dresser car or poor mans porsche - this goes teh same for any convertible 2 door car. Mazda MX 5, Audi TT etc...

I still think 5 series is an old mans car, but with the right mods, it can look good.

You can drive a M training car on the track after you have completed the level 1 & 2 BMW driver training (or buy a M3 and ship it to Zhuhai to track it).

"Not smooth" does not apply to our cars. It's very healthy since we drive it almost everyday. I think most cars do the same if you maintain it properly and drive it often. Cars were built for driving, not sitting in the carpark.
