I used to work for BMW in San Francisco. The experience was unforgettable. I have always been drawn to BMW's. That cut-away front end and that elegant Hoffmeister Kink. http://www.europeancarweb.com/tech/0401ec_6series02/ Beneath the taught, athletic, yet conservative skin, there is a gem of an engine, whether it is their unstoppable series of inline sixes, their burgeoning family of V8's, or their new and improved big V12. For the longest time I was a die-hard enthusiast of their inline6, that was until I got to drive both the previous generation M5 AND the Z8!!! see: http://www.bmwworld.com/media/pictures_z8.htm My only trepidation with this company is that once the warranty is up things could get very expensive. Seems like a lot of people are willing to put up with that since the driving experience is so rich and viscerally fulfilling. Congrats on yr new car! I'm just a bit jealous but I won't show it 'cause I'm a gentleman.
