You drive a 325...

It is amazing how no matter what BMW does, everyone seems to hate it, then eventually everyone understands why they do what they do. Almost everyone hated the E90 over the E46, but I love the E90 compared to the E46. They are advanced in their thinking, but this slogan change is F'n terrible.

turns out they're not changing the slogan after all (whew!). See main thread.

Admins: might want to close this thread as well.

sorry to burst your bubble, but BMW NEVER really built the ultimate driving machines.

i'm also sorry if you realized this -after- your two purchases.

Yes, I'd like to second the closing of this thread that is full of A) misinformation, and B) homophobic rhetoric.
