If you have never driven a BMW you won't know the difference. It handles like a dream - it hugs the curves, it accelerates through curves, yes, I drive a 325 CI - love it.....it's my 2nd one. But one of the main reasons I drive one is the warranty...I never pay for anything on my car - including oil changes. I always get a loaner - they come pick up my car and drop off the loaner for an oil change. Honda, Toyota won't do that. Plus it has great German engineering...
If you ever try one - you will see the difference that's why we hang on to them and they retail higher even when pre-owned.

We all love our luxury vehicles here.. I drive a Jaguar XK 2008, but I also have a Toyota Tundra Crew Max LTD, 2008 ( I need for towing) and unless you actually have been serviced at Toyota you can't really talk about how they treat you. I never pay for oil changes on the Toyota either, and I have life time free oil changes, and they do them on the spot, that I don't need a loaner vehicle. haha.. The price tag on my Toyota was $65 k .. You should try informing yourself on what your writing, with regards to other companies, because its apparent you have no idea.

I agree with Bill in that the beamers felt rough, drove rough. BMW's are good vehicles, but have you noticed they are everywhere, very attainable, run of the mill ordinary car. Teenagers and young adults everywhere have them and yet you act like driving your c class, your something special for having this car. Its obvious you drive your car for the logo, playing the part of the 'poseur' badly...
Your vehicle retails used (depending on the year) a 2004 BMW 325 CI, with minimal mileage for $27k. Generally between $24K up to $37k for a 2006.. in US prices.
