8 Reasons why everyone should drive a BMW


23 09 2006

I know what you are thinking, why BMW? Well…why not! At least in the Boston area the BMW brand seems to have almost universal appeal. There are even studies out there that claim men who own BMW automobiles have significantly more luck in attracting members of the opposite sex. Sex appeal aside, it is my own personal opinion that BMW simply makes a superior automobile in comparison to most cars on the road today. Many of the BMW’s mentioned below can also be purchased for significantly less cash then you might think, if you know where to look ;-)

  1. BMW 1 SeriesBMW 1 Series
    If you live in Europe and you want (or is that a need…) a small car to use in town then the BMW One Series is the choice for you! Featuring a choice of either a four cylinder or six cylinder engine and all the extras you would expect from a BMW. All this for significantly less then you would expect.
  2. BMW Z2BMW Z2
    Wish you could afford a Z4 but just don’t want to blow the cash on something that impractical? Featuring a starting price of less than 30 big ones the Z2 is just what you are looking for. Only recently announced, this new BMW won’t be in dealerships just yet but look for it sooner than you might think (rumors have it on dealers lots for 2009-2010 model year).
  3. BMW 3 SeriesBMW 328i
    There is no possible way I could explain why the BMW 3 Series is simply the best sports sedan that money can buy. You just need to try one for yourself. What I can say that my own experience with both a BMW 328i and a few years later a 325xi was very positive. Now with the introduction of the new 328i sedan and the almost overpowered 335i (twin-turbo, 300hp) sedan there are even more reasons to take a long hard look at the 3 Series.
  4. BMW Z4 M RoadsterBMW M Roadster
    What do you get when you take a high output 330hp inline six cylinder engine and pop it into the sculpted body of a roadster? The BMW Z4 M roadster is what you get and trust me, it rocks! If you are in the market for a convertible that is a no-compromise solution then the Z4 is your roadster.
  5. BMW X5BMW X5
    Ok, I admit it, this was not the BMW I would have expected as number 5 on this list. But after driving the current BMW 5 Series sedan I was not impressed. The interior of the latest 5 Series sedan was just too “plastic” for my taste and on the local Boston roads the car had a almost “heavy” feel when compared to the latest generation 3 Series. Although the BMW X5 is not the *perfect* SUV it sure is good at being just what it is, a BMW. Handling is spot on and the fuel economy is not as bad as you might expect from a SUV (25mpg highway is common).
  6. BMW 6 SeriesBMW 650i
    Although not my favorite BMW the 6 Series coupe does have a significant appeal. Viewed from close up the coupe looks larger than it’s dimensions would have you think and the way the wheels bulge out in those curvaceous fender flares makes you just want to take this car out for some exercise. Many feel that the 6 Series coupe is the finest two door on the road today and I would be hard pressed to disagree.
  7. BMW 7 Series - BMW 760i
    If you consider yourself a person of distinctive (and expensive) taste and always demand the best then the BMW 7 Series is exactly what you are looking for. You will not find a finer, more sophisticated, and polished automobile at any price. The latest generation 7 Series sets the standard with power, handling, and style that defines what it means to be a BMW.
  8. BMW 8 SeriesBMW 850csi
    I had to think long and hard about putting this one on the list. I personally don’t think the 8 Series is quite the car some make it out to be but I can’t ignore the simple fact that even years after it has left the US market you can still find them selling on eBay for significant amounts of cash. The car just seems to have a strong following. Dealers will tell you the 6 Series has replaced it, but I suspect that it will take more than the (optional) 10 cylinder M6 to quell the folks who just can’t live without the 8 Series signature V12 found in the 850i.

Somebody buy me one and I’ll damn sure drive. I’d never buy one for myself though. ;)

Women are probrably highly attracted to men that drive BMW’s becasue they think they are wealthy. JMHO though!

That’s a good one. Probably, it’s can show your status and style. ^^
However, it may not effect a woman who own one such BMW.

3 Series is the best, but actually, Mini is one of my wishes.
