I didn't mind the interior on my M3, although looked a little dated.

E46?

I STILL think BMW needs to update their interiors big time... even on the E92's they just feel dated with that "signature" BMW look

There we go, thats a comparable car. My GF had one and it was pretty bad. I'm sure being dumped a few inches didn't help either.

I think a male owning a del Sol is the automotive equivalent of castration

I really think BMW's are overhyped beyond belief. I went to the annual auto show here in November or something and sat in several of the Lexuses, Benzes, BMW's and Audi's and by quality of interior/comfort/controls I think they rank like this: 1) Lexus, 2) Mercedes, 3) Audi, 4) BMW.

Of course, that's just my opinion, however I've always noticed that BMW lacks in interior quality and comfort. The 745i's controls were clunky and the interior was really cheap compared to the likes of the Lexus LS600 hL and Mercedes S55 and even the Audi S5, etc.

I dunno... BMW can be cool, but I'm sick of everyone raving about how amazing this "luxury" brand is... -_-.. sorry but Lexus ftw (plus it's got that bulletproof Toyota quality; never breaks).

Now if Lexus would only offer a manual transmission in the IS350 and do something about those god awful dumbo-ear side-view mirrors...

A lot of members on here dislike BMW. I dont really drool over them but I gotta say they make some of the best built cars. I will only drive Nissan personally but bimmers are the sh*t.

I'm really glad BMW finally started manufacturing cars in a fairly reasonable price range with power worth owning... I was considering 330ci's when I bought my G, and even ones with the ZHP package felt like mules by comparison... my friend's '07 328i felt much faster

That happens on all forums. Most every forum hates on Honda. A Titan forum I'm on is pretty bad, hating on all other trucks. Booooooo.

I don't dislike BMW because of this forum, just putting that out there; nor because I own a G35.

I just honestly think BMW are way over-hyped. A lot of people think BMW is the epitomy of luxury and status, etc. I just don't see it based on actually being in these cars and driving some of them.

You know, they are a little overhyped, arent they? I drove two, and i can see how people would like them. They are very solid cars, that handle amazing.

I just cant see why its SO overhyped.

I liked the car, but didnt prefer it over a G sedan.
