Of course, you know what my vote was.

Also, I'm here in Znod's backyard. Made the trip this morning and got into Phoenix a few hours ago.

Ah, I see some here who drives a BMW for the prestige factor. Not a care at all for the SPORT in sport sedan. It's irrelevant.

I'd drive something else than.

But I don't need to know what one member here scored vs. some other member, which car is faster... I know the BMW figures, that's all I need to know.

There is no need for launch comparisons, straight line performance comparisons, etc....

You should drive something else that isn't a SPORT sedan.

Please, this is not an argument but a debate. Is this thread going to disappear as well?

Just because YOU see it different people like me will not drive other cars.
Maybe YOU should drive another car, not an E60...


If we continue this "debate" it will surely will be deleted, because it allready is an argument you started here not a debate anymore.

Iceman,
You need to learn how to debate. That is all I am doing. I am driving exactly what I should be driving a SPORT sedan.

I don't need to learn it.

And I drive exactly what I should be driving. Even if you don't think so.

YOU don't tell ME what I should drive or not. Period.

Wait a minute... this is a community forum right? so just because a mod doesnt care how fast HIS personal car is doenst mean others dont care... I'm sure there are a lot of people who like to know. So why not the extra sub forum? ESPECIALLY since the Bush's of this community doesnt like where some members post their thread... why not make a clear place for them to post their threads?
