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.
