What made you choose BMW?

Style, stick-shift option, driving fun

Build quality, my family used to be a HUGE MB fans but their build quality decreased dramatically in the past 5~8 years so we switched over to BMW.

And plus, cars such as the M3 truly makes you enjoy driving

rear wheel drive!!!!!! handling, and the simple interior

I decided to get a bimmer after I went with my brother to test drive a e46 325i. During his test drive I sat in the back and he did very tight hairpin U-turn and I noticed as he did it the minimum body roll and how smooth it felt. That's what made me get the new bimmer.

Got it for the badge.

my father has it engrained in my head that if you want a drivers car, there is BMW, and there is everyone else. My dad has been driving 7's since 1980. The love he had for his car made me love BMWs. My first car was an e46 and I was addicted. Now I bumped myself up to the ///M roadster and hopefully my next car will be an M5 or M6. Wishful Thinking.

The Design. The Power. The Handling. The Smile I get whenever I start her up!

Saw an E46 in '99 and fell in love with it and wanted a BMW ever since. Drove damn near everything under the sun until a couple years ago when I bought a used '99 328i. Never wanted to drive anything else.

Sold E46. Now, E70 X5. Next, E92 M3 once I donate the X to the wife.
