Why did you poll for seprate US and RoW ? Do GQ's only exist one side of the pond.

Not sure what you are trying to figure out Fred. My 545i is my only means of transport. Because I love driving it so much, we leave the Minivan at home on weekends and tool around with the kids in the E60. Buts its my toy.

I have to say, mine is a toy. It was definitely not a necessity. I would have been just fine w/ my '93 Corolla!
The Toyota is a beater, I can take it anywhere and not worry about it. Everything works. Runs great and I don't mind getting dings on it. But when it's time to show off... I'm in the bimmer! (flame suit on)

I'd vote both. But considering my daily commute to and from work is only around 5 miles, I'm not exactly turning the odometer! I've had the car 15 months now and have just hit 12,000 miles...
