No, I don't care for them. Not because I believe anyone who drives them is a
prick; I drove a couple different models (a 320i and a 528e) and they really
did nothing for me. The driving position is great, but I have that in my GLX.
The roadfeel, the handling etc. is fine, but I see no need to spend that much
more $ when I have all that already in my GLX. I don't need to out-accelerate
an SR-71, so my GLX is good enough for me. Hell, I've heard people bashing VW
drivers because they drive a GERMAN (!) car; how could I drive that when
there are so many good American cars out there (an indefensible statement in
itself).
So, I guess I'm a pompous prick as well. Happy now?
