Will be 59 in December! God that sounds disgusting. I'm just thankful for the secret attribute of a BMW - The Ultimate Time Machine - because I can feel so young at the wheel....

I'm also reversing the norm of older folks owning the higher series numbers - I went from 5 series to 3 series to 1 series. 8 in total.

When I bought my XK8 (25) I got a survey for it. The previous report showed an average age of 56 for the coupe. The report that came out after I submitted the survey said it was 52. I like to think I had something to do with that

Im 19 right now. 17 when I first picked up the car. And yes im paying for it myself. I saved cash for 4 years of work to put a big downpayment on a car to keep my monthlies low.

Hitting the big four-oh next month.

Had a 335i coupe all lined up and ready for me to sign and go. But I'll be damned if I didn't like the 1er better. I liked the price better too of course, but in all honesty that was not the deciding factor.

The 3 coupe felt like a luxury car being squeezed into a sports car, but the 1er felt like a sports car with some luxury items tagging along for the ride.

CincyOne · 10-01-2010, 12:54 PM

63. Just trying to keep the numbers up ... Sold the E46 coupe to buy the 135 but kept the E28.

Bimmer//135 · 10-01-2010, 12:58 PM

52

Turned in a an 07 335. Would have gone the way of the 1 if it would have been available 3+ years ago when I ordered the 335.

Chronological age 75. Addicted to BMWs off and on since my '68 2002. I must like this one, since it has over 44-K miles since April '08.

I just turned 38. My 135 is at the port, awaiting a shipping vessel, so I'm almost an owner...
