Sounds sweet, def. post up some pics. Out of curiosity I noticed in a previous post you preferred an auto 540i, any reason why? I'm not insulting the auto, but the 6 speeds are such a joy to drive. Anyway back on topic, that's really lame on how you get judged so quickly on mere superficial observations. Well at least you a got a kick *** ride.

Several reasons why I bought an auto:

I'm in traffic a lot and don't want to have to bother with it...
It would have been even harder to find a 6sp exactly the way I wanted it...
I've only driven a stick once in my life.

Ah I see that makes sense. I remember being stubborn too on trying to find the car I wanted with all the right options. Constantly upshifting and downshifting in traffic on a daily basis would be a nuisance. Are you going to kept your C-class or sell it?

Well, the parents paid for the BMW and I have to pay them back... so probably they are going to force me to sell the C320. However, you can be sure I'll do my best to keep it... owning a Benz and a Bimmer at 22 is just straight up baller status!

Yep that would be cool. Even then your C320 can be the "economy" car when you want save on fuel.

Check in the trunk, I think the 3 series convertible comes with lavender loafers, standard, if it is the gay model.

Look on the left door sill, if there is a "Made for West Hollywood" sticker, it is a gay conversion.

I pretty much only see gay guys or hot girls driving a 3 Series convertible in OC. It might be different where you live though.

A diesel Land Rover Defender 110 Wagon. I rarely meet girls who like that car. It's Old, Boxy, out of date and totally not pretty.. not to mention noisy and smelly. Perfect man's car

Nice White E39 by the way.

There is NO such thing as a "gay" car. ONLY a "gay" driver.

you can give me a pink or purple 2007 M5 or 2007 S65 and i dont care. both are 2 powerful German machines. i couldnt care less what the damn color is, especialy when i think of the 500hp and 601hp respectively. their Teutonic presence shows through even if the body color seems "gay" to you

If you buy a Purple M5 or S65 that sales man is doing cartwheels the second you left and probably laughing at you with everyone else. Not to mentions that your resale value is down the pooper. The Only way you can pull off that color is if your Brad Pitt, other than that, your a GAY guy who happens to like expensive and fast cars.
