Hi.

Former GM fanboy here. I got introduced to BMW when I bought a MINI to replace my commuter car. It was an eye opener as to what I was missing. So when my Buick (the family car) wore out, BMW became my next option. I hope to learn and share a lot of experiences of BMW ownership with you all here.

Congrats on both the BMW and the MINI in your garage and welcome to the forum! I'm sure you'll enjoy the info on here!
