Whats The Best Car You Ever Owned?

Harry135 · 07-22-2009, 01:51 AM

Whats the best car you ever owned?

Heres mine, a

325i compact - absolutely fabulous car. Ran without fault for 3 years, not even a squeak, built like a tank.....just hope my forthcoming 135 is going to be as satisfying. Still see it driving around locally - jealous!

Regret selling it big time

Easy - the one I drive right now.

dubdemand · 07-22-2009, 05:31 AM

I've always had VAG cars and my current Seat Leon Cupra R has to be the best I've had so far... going to be a bit of a change coming over to BMW!

I'm expecting delivery of a 120d coupe in AW sometime towards te end of September / early October - just hoping the leap from 225hp fwd to only 177hp at the rear isn't too much of a shock!!!

x5 4.8is, cayman S, e90 330i

BrokenVert · 07-22-2009, 09:10 AM

My 135i...but then again. Its the only car i've ever owned...so I don't think thats really fair.

Aerosoul Bastard · 07-22-2009, 09:20 AM

my ex-baby… i think this is the best car out there!

oneintheory · 07-22-2009, 09:42 AM

I had an 07 Rav4, and that thing was absurdly reliable, quick (264 ponies), and good on gas (better than the 1).

As far as the fun factor goes, the 1.

spudw · 07-22-2009, 10:51 AM

1995 Mazda Miata. It was basic, balanced and beautiful.

I expect my 1 Series, when I get one, may trump the Miata.

135isandiego · 07-22-2009, 11:07 AM

Its a tie for my daily driver. My old 2000 m5 and my 2009 135i.
My 1966 Chevy II is the one I will never sell, so maybe a 3 way tie

yandy · 07-22-2009, 11:52 AM

Ford Explorer 1996 2door 4.0L, 298000 miles and the only thing I replace besides normal wear and tear parts, was the Transmission once at 200k.

The 135i is pretty good too

Excitmnt94 · 07-22-2009, 12:16 PM

my 135i...hands down. the '06 Z4 3.0si was a very nice roadster, but i just LOVE my 1er. there will always be a special place in my heart for my Zed...and for my '06 GTI 1.8T...but 135 FTW!

Excitmnt94 · 07-22-2009, 12:17 PM

and Harry...that is one sick ride you had there!

Harry135 · 07-22-2009, 12:32 PM

Thanks Excitmnt94 - and that was the day I sold it, 3 years old

And chaps it would be cool to see actual pics of your "best ever car"

EINSER M · 07-22-2009, 12:37 PM

this E82!

adrean8j · 07-22-2009, 03:47 PM

My 135i is my favorite buuuut this car will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart and I really, really miss it..sigh:

ulrichd · 07-22-2009, 04:05 PM

Believe it or not my 1987 Rabbit GTI. 90hp and loved to redline like crazy. We've lost sight of how much fun small car can be.

jibaholic101 · 07-22-2009, 04:35 PM

1999 Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadster, damn i miss that car

Cuz5150 · 07-22-2009, 08:01 PM

As of right now, my 1999.5 Audi B5 1.8tqm......will see if the 135i takes over.

Jaguar66 · 07-22-2009, 08:08 PM

My '65 Pontiac GTO has a special place in my heart. Next is my '95 E36 M3 LTW, followed closely by my '88 E30 M3.

Seats are awesome vehicles. Spent nine years in Germany saw them flying down the autobahn all the time.

1979 Datsun 280ZX.
