Naw just fooking w/ people on myspace...
I have to agree with you here, BMW owners are actually nice until you say that XXX car is better then theirs.Quote:

Stupid imo.
So I would go with nissan on this one.
I still do like BMWs though, they are fun to drive.
Well BMW quality is not fantastic but its not terrible either. As for race engines, well, Gordan Murray did ask BMW to produce the V-12 for their McLaren, he asked for 550hp and got 627..
Mclaren>any freaking car so got to give huge props to BMW here.....
Nissan quality ain't great either, they are usually below the industry average. Infiniti though is always in the top 8 or so.....
Bimmer's Blow Goats.... Damn Biodegradable parts... and shtuff

OK, let's get this straight, yet again:
YOU whine about people posting facts that were put out by PROFESSIONAL people, which BTW YOU have quoted several times in your little "what's every car compared to in every magazine article...." :jerkit: , and then when it's not going your way you revert back to calling those same articles BIASED?????
Got it.
What is it that YOU do for a living? What magazine do YOU work for?
Got it.
You want to talk about bias? How is comparing an M3, BMW's flagship middle weight, to Nissan's G35 a fair comparo? How is it fair to compare a $50k car to a $35k car? How come all of a sudden only BMW owners are the ONLY source to believe in BMW's ultimate driving machine mentality?
I have a very good friend that owns an M3. Much newer than yours. Ask her what she thinks of it right now, after the car has spent more time in the shop for not only mechanical problems but also basic FITMENT problems. Ask her. Her father is very wealthy and could have just about any car he wanted I'm sure. You know what he drives? A LEXUS, although his is the "luxury" version :rolleyes: . You know what her mother drives? A Lexus too, again the "luxury" edition since they don't believe in the non-luxury division of the company :rolleyes: . You know what this young lady's OTHER car is.......I'll give you 1 guess......A LEXUS......Hmmmm, go ask her if she thinks her Lexus is sub par to her BMW.
Hah! Game point. :goodjob:Quote:

Forget that multi billion dollar publications that test cars for a freaking living don't agree with his vast experience of owning 1 BMW... :rolleyes:
As a matter of fact, you want UNbiased....how's Consumer Reports for squeaky clean unbiased. They don't even allow advertising from ANYONE to avoid any possible whining about biased.
You know what THEY have to say about BMW's????? Let's take a look, shall we?:
On the subject of "best and worst" used cars....Let's see how many BMW's make the "BEST" list, shall we?:
http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/c...-406/index.htm
HMMMM, only 1 BMW made the "best" list.....HMMMMMM, but notice how many Lexus, Infiniti, Toyota, Honda, Hell there were more FORDS than BMW's.... :lmfao: HMMMMMMMM>>>>>>how's that happen????
How about the "bad" list???? HMMMMM, interesting.....where are the Lexus at? The Infinitis? The Hondas? The Toyotas? As a matter of fact, what is the most popular car on that list? German cars and American cars.....HMMMMM, how's that work again???? I guess they don't think as much about your venerable "german engineering" prowess.... :rolleyes: AS a matter of fact, there 2 BMW's in the "worst" list vs only 1 in the "best", yet not a SINGLE JAPANESE CAR MADE THAT LIST.......Wow, what a bunch of pieces of crap, huh???? :rolleyes:
What do they say about reliability as the cars age? Let's see....:
Hmmmm, looks like your almighty BMW "lags behind" the Japanese yet again.
http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/c...-age/index.htm
Let's see what your own fellow BMW fanatics say, shall we? How about surveys from CURRENT owners of just about every car under the sun on how they would RE-BUY or Lease their CURRENT car.......I wonder how many BMW owners agree with you?????:
Damn, not many since NO BMW made the list of the most satisfied:
http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/c...view/index.htm
Hmmmm, notice how many JAPANESE models there are on that list.....the report says, and I quote, "In all, subscribers rated their experiences with more than 350,000 vehicles and 237 separate models in the survey, conducted by the Consumer Reports National Research Center. Forty-four models made our top cut, up from 32 last year. That is, at least 80 percent of owners said they would definitely buy or lease the vehicle again. Japanese models led with 31, followed by European models, with nine. Four models were domestic, up from just one last year. All domestic models had V8 engines."
Wow, 31 vs 9......again, Japanese cars sure are disposable POS's, and everybody agrees with YOU on that.... :rolleyes:
I'd like to see how your going to try and weasel out of this one. Bias is something Consumer Reports is well known NOT to be at all. If I were a subscriber, I'd be willing to bet that the individual results sheet for YOUR car would have several BLACK dots in several different sections. Wanna bet?
Jaime is the man! :goodjob:
There is no amount of google info that can refute that post.
Game, Japanese.
MOTHERFUCKING PWNED in EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD
Man , did i cant believe i used to argue with Jaime , how did i survive EL OH EL . this man is on a MISSION, someone get him a BEER@!
Id love to come to halstons rescue, but it's hard. If you people don't realize that american car mags AND shows are biased, I simply can't argue this ill-fated war anymore.
Halston - Down to the end bro, but god damn, there are still a few here who refuse to listen to even reason. I've tried, I'm done.
BAHAHAHAHHHA!! You think Consumer Reports is biased?! Why? Because they don't paint BMWs as the gods of the automotive world?Quote:

The bottom line is that YOU GUYS started a pissing contest that YOU GUYS lost. So basically, in your eyes, you lost a debate to a bunch of "ricers" on a "ricer board." How does that make you feel? :slap:
I happen to like rice. I don't see what the big deal is anyways. Uncle Bens is my fav...and they have this new 5 minute shit! YUM YUM!Quote:

That was the end of that. We paid $60k for the car and waited 6 months on a waiting list for it.
Best choice evar! :kiss:Quote:

Some people added up the scores and C and D added them wrong, it was a damn tie.
The funny thing is in Europe, BMW gets its ass handed to it by Porsche in ever mag (CAR, EVO, etc) so I guess its all relative.
Fucking E39 M5 is my shiznit!
Alrighty bishes.....I'm done with this cute discussion for the night.
Don't forget to tip your waitresses if you liked the service, and if you didn't like the service don't freaking come back.......word? WORD! :D
Translation: Next time you all hang out with Jaime buy him a beer! I know I will! :drink:Quote:

LOL, right... I'm sure you know more about cars than me. And I'm sure these BMW guys all make more than $25/hr at 20yrs old, can't afford a $14k car :lmfao: . Look in the mirror, tell yourself it's time to stop making assumptions and get your facts straight before you make yourself look like an ass. As I posted before I've driven many a BMW and I have yet to be impressed.Quote:
