Not that you get any more back with a BMW or any other vehicle :rolleyes:

I actually don't have a BMW any longer but you are very incorrect in that statement, Eurpoean vehicles definitely hold their value and get hit with less depreciation and if you think otherwise, have a look for yourself and educate yourself. :lol:

......and at the end of the day it is STILL a GM product that you will never get even a quarter of your money back out of......ACK..... :rolleyes:

Oh man, I didn't think about that. :(

I spent all I got into this thing and was hoping for a really great return on my investment.

/sarcasm.


When I buy a wine bottle, I want it to taste good. When I spend money modifying my car, I want it to be fast. Thats it. I'm well aware that I'm SPENDING that money, not investing it.

If I'd wanted to invest in something, then that's what I would have done.

Exactly.

Cars should be treated like good hookers. Spend a bunch of money on 'em, go fast, then go get a newer model.

This.

If you're 'investing' in cars, you're doing it wrong. The only cars worth 'investing' in are cars that non of us can afford already.

Don't worry. He's the guy that gives BMW owners (or former owners) a bad name. Almost like he's trying too hard to be a prick...

Good looking B-Body for sure. My first car was a '93 Caprice LTZ in DGGM.

no. Cars should be treated as a family member.

so spend a lot of money on them, slap them around a little here and there and hope they don't grow up to be bigger than you?
