    One thing that you can go wrong with driving German is reliability, they are just not the greatest. Not sure where Pontiac ranks, but I know Germans can't touch the Japanese in reliability. Not to mention repairs are twice as expensive.

    German engine reliability is generally okay it's the electrical/electronics which has a lot of problems IMO

    Not necessarily. That being said, I don't have a BMW :). It's still on the individual if they're a douchebag or not. Usually they are or aren't before they get the sporty/tricked out car. Some can also become a douche after getting the car when they were not prior.

    My advice?

    Yeah, I know Holden made that car...and thats the only reason it handles a little better than it normally would have. That still doesnt make the interior comparable to BMW. Maybe I shouldnt have said crappy plastic...but its definitely not in the same ballpark.

    And you forgot to show a picture of the back of that car...the front looks decent...the back looks like...

    Yeah...not impressive. :grin:

    Thanks for that. I've only raced two, and both times I only saw the front in my rear view for a split second and they always disappeared backwards really, really quickly. Oh, and no I don't own a Beamer.

    I appreciate it!

    Do people ever realize that SOMETIMES people buy cars like BMWs, Audi's etc... not because it makes them look "rich", but maybe just maybe these cars are fun as hell to drive? The 3 series BMW along with the M line are no luxury cars. Their suspensions are stiff as hell.
