Join the club. They were heaps though. They ride like a dishwasher, steer like a supertanker (with a fuzzy padded tiller), and have less power than a hamster powered windmill (I know windmills don't work that way, but you get the idea). But alas, I still like em.

Anyway, 8 series, especially some rare Alpina B12 Coupes are soooo hoot.

Go with an E34 with an S52, way more reliable and a bunch cheaper to build/maintain.
Will get some pics up ASAP

Yeah Im pretty sure I've made my mind up on the W209. I like the nimble handling, but I frankly live 10 min from work and I make 4 turns on the way there and 4 turns on the way back, sooooo. I'm now faced with a new dilemma. Do I go 550 or 55AMG? What do you guys think of that?

On the beeeg side, I'm sorta set being married and all.
