    Would anyone here do that?
    Cos they look great, they're fun to drive, sound great, they're not the usual humdrum and they're probably the most sporting cars in their respective categories. They carry an Italian flair that invariably leaves the Germans looking positively dull. Have you actually ever driven one?

    Indeed. There's life outside overpirced, dull, overrated german cars.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Go for the T-Spark, not the JTD.

    Get it in a real manual too, not a Selespeed.

    Taking into account I can't drive, no I haven't..

    But I'm looking at it from the thinking person's prospective.. Anyone with common sense wouldn't buy one. Not a new one anyway..

    If you want to see something special, see the ones I've made.

    That's why we are petrolheads, we are not sensible, we don't think with the head, but rather with the heart. If you really are bothered by those issues, go on a bus...

    I will if you get online. I usually do custom-ordered ones.

    Nicely countered. They're future classics, so keep it in good condition and it'll pay dividends!

    You still don't understand what I mean do you? Did you know that the BMW 760i is one of the fastest depreciating cars in the world?

    I mean which kind of cars do you like?

    Please support your opinion, if possible, with facts and not childish arguments.
    Money can't buy you friends, but you do get a better class of enemy.
