The rules were recently updated but that post I made was old. I didn't wish to notify you in the forum, but your PM function is disabled.
Odd that rules were posted on "03-04-04, 01:13 AM" ...but I found this http://k53.pbase.com/v3/96/492696/1/48255824.spoony693et.gif GIF from this forum, from another sig someone was using just a few weeks ago...so I thought the one I picked was safer, but I didn't know it was against the rules. Maybe it's a new addition to the rules. Sorry about that.

The BMW is a nice ride, but I would not give it a double take if you pulled up beside me. I am sure you got a lot more looks in the Bullitt than you will in the BMW. I showed my wife the photos. (she cares very little about cars) she thought the BMW looked like a lot of cars on the road and the Bullitt stood. I have owned a BMW, Benz, Audi, I like my Cobra the best. I get more looks in one week in the Cobra than I did in all the years I drove the high end cars. The ride was a lot nicer in the BMW, Benz etc. so I am sure you will enjoy it.

those BMW's are very very nice. enjoy real luxury, handling, and relaiability. soemthing the stangs will never give us, but also something i can live with, cause i love it.. none the less.. very nice pick up
to say a performance oriented bmw has more reliability than a mustang is laughable
btw for those doubting it's reliability and whatnot lets be realistic. granted it's the initial production of a new motor, but i have enough faith in bmw to make a car in the 21st century that is built to last. my dad has put 240k miles, 100k miles, 36k miles, and 80k miles on his respective bmws and all of them have worked nearly flawlessly.
Just noticed your "founding member" tag in your avatar - do you plan on getting another Mustang, ever? When I got rid of my '02 Mustang I thought I'd be headed towards the direction of EVO's, SRT6's, SRT8's, Mazda8's, Next Gen GTO/Camaro, etc...and thought I'd never want another Mustang, but looks like thought wrong. Just trying to make up my mind on which one I want.
I have 3 different frinds who have owned BMW's in the past and have had nothing but bad luck with them. THey literally spent 25% of the year in the shop,and none of the repairs were cheap. There was not one problem with any,just a whole heap of little problems but it never cost them less than $900 for any fix. All these cars were 2 or 3 years old at the time. 2 of those guys no longer own Bimmer's the 3rd is on his second car after the last "electrical glitch" cost $6000 to repair. The new one has been nickel and diming him now too. They are quick and yes the handling is awesome but reliability is not somethign they should brag about. Also-twin turbo inline 6 thats makes a whopping 300 hp? I'd expect better after paying that much for any car.
As above if they where 2 or 3 years old they would have been under warranty for any of the issues you mentioned.
Not saying I dont believe you but I dont believe you. I would be highly suspisious if a dealer wanted me to pay $6K for an electrical issue at all let alone when the car was under warranty.
