It's the 1st step in addiction ...... DENIAL!!
I work @ a shop that does car wash and detailing so my E60 is washed almost every week, sometimes every 4 days. I ALWAYS look back every single time I park it anywhere just to admire her.

For me deciding to buy a BMW took a while after driving a Jeep for a number of years and Infinity G series sedans. I had always heard that BMW is the ultimate driving machine and they're right. It is! Before I purchased my 5 series I test drove Mercedes, Porsche , M5 and the Infinity G-37 convertible and based of what was practical for me at the time including price I decided on the 530i. I 'll be honest and say that maybe I should have purchased a 550i, however I was concerned about gas mileage and insurance costs. Maybe one day I'll purchase a M5 because deep down inside that's what I really want.

When my ex-gf and I were dating, she once wanted to break up with me because of my car.
Whenever she wants to get in, she used to scrape the door panel with her high heels by mistake no matter how many times I used to tell her to be careful. So I always used to comment on how clumsy she is and would get out, clean the door panel then get back in my seat and drive (and that's EVERY SINGLE TIME).
Till once I was picking her up going clubbing, she snapped when getting in the car (I think it was that time of the month), when I gave her the comment "Oh come on.. EVERYTIME babe". She stood out of the car and yelled "Its either me or the car". AND THIS WAS MY MISTAKE, I paused without an answer..... " YOUR THINKING ABOUT IT, goooood your soo naiive" and didnt hear from her for 3days.
So yeah, I do love my car.

I voted no. It's just a car. It just happens to have won the competition I invited all cars to enter. It got the most points for all things under consideration and suits my needs the best for the price range I was willing to part with. There isn't one that suits 'em better right now. If there was, it would be the one being neglected in my garage instead of the E60.
I spend about $7 cleaning it once a month at the drive-thru and drive it on average about 2-3 times a week for a total of less than 100 miles. I enjoy the hell out of those 100 miles though and still can't find anything I'd rather be owning right now for this price.
Heartless?
Yup :thumbsdown:

One time I was visiting my p's house and I was outside of their garage just spending time with my car. My father comes outside with 2 beers and put one on the roof of the E60 and said "you've been out here a while, figured you and your woman wanted a drink." I almost fell over laughing.
