I will not buy one unless dealer gives me a spoon with purchase--so they can pick me up after a crash.
well said, considering the crash I was just in a walked away from, in this sucker i would not be here. Its not so much the driver that has to worry about himself its having to worry about all the other bad drivers..

I had a 2000 M roadster and it was a blast to drive. Don't fret about the size being dangerous-heck you can't go through life worried.

We love our 2001 Z3 2.5i manual tranny. It's only got 15K miles on it! We of course keep it parked in the winter, even though it has a removable hard top. It's our 'show' car! Great purchase.
