My Ride: 04' 545i
Should we share our passion for cars with our kids?
I say yes, i tried it with my son and the bonding was great, i didnt even have to make an effort to turn him on.
(he's 9 by the way).

My son told me about two girls in his high school class whose parents had bought them cars.
Girl 1: Her parents asked her what kind of car she wanted and she said she wanted a BMW. Her reason was because the BMW had an Ipod connector.
Girl 2: Her parents bought her a new BMW 3 series but after a couple of months her dad traded it in for a 7 series because he didn't like seeing such a cheap car sitting in his driveway.

Hell yes!
I was 10 yo when I got to drive a car for my selfs on a ice track
(up in the Finnish Lapland) where the car manufactures now tests their cars.
First car was a Audi Coup? 100 S and the next year it was a M-B 220
but after that it was 518, 520 and finally a 520i.
Did drive a lot of other cars as well on the ice tracks.
So check out this shitty pic of a fresh OEM BMW stuff for kids catalog.
