Elixir Of Youth

Posted by monza gorilla , 24 August 2007 · 31 views

Short entry pending a forthcoming tome.

Long, long time ago, on this forum, I said I found German cars too clinical. Soulless. Then I bought a Golf. And now I've sold it. Because it was like a video game. Great velocity and no feeling. Total efficiency. Total detachment. And too much elastic trickery for me. And too many driven wheels. And I've bought another German motor. Even worse, it's a BMW. Even worse than that, it's an absolute hoot. 325ti Sport compact with the 18" wheels and no discernable suspension. And I'm 18 again and fearing for my licence. I still think German cars have no soul. Except this one.

Wez may have a point, y'know.




I drive a Volkswagen Golf GTI in black and I love it.

I've driven a BMW 325i before, and I love it even more.

What I really want is a Mercedes C63 AMG Black.  That's a German car I could get into.

Never insult the name of BMW! My Dad has 2 5 series'. A 94 525i & a 99 R reg E39 520i! They're both class & the 520i is being used for his new job as a taximan, aswell as being a lampy!

Actually, do insult it.  The current 5-series is so ugly it's a disgrace to BMW.

The 2003/2004-ish BMW 325i is the best BMW ever made, looks-wise.

The current 7-Series is pretty good after the facelift.

I'm considering getting a 1-Series when they come to the USA, but I'll wait for the first few batches to get all the kinks worked out.
