My Ride: 2005 545i shadowline

So i had to suck it up and sell the 545i... couldnt afford the fuel anymore, driving 180k a day and it was costing me over 500$ a month in fuel.. its sad i loved the car so much.. But i picked up an audi a4 2.7 tdi s line, german spec, its no 545i, but its fun to drive and has all the features i was looking for and i can afford to drive it.

yeah i knew id get a bad reaction from members on this forum, but i couldnt find another 5 or a 3 in my price class that had the features i was looking for.. i just cant live with the normal bmw leather seats.... yuck, lol, had to have sport seats or komfort seats..and all the 3 series i found had the mini nav, i just felt like i was downgrading too much with what was available. we will see how i like the audi, im picking it up on monday.

How about BMW with diesel engines? You should have them in Germany, isn't?
