Well, there are a lot of posts in these forums about BMW's dropping quality. I guess you knew that and decided to take the plunge anyway. And.....dealers can be arrogant. But, there are a LOT of good reasons to own a Bimmer...especially an M-car. Like you said....their handling agility and steering feel is first-rate, their 0-60 times right up there, and M-cars, quality or no, are worth their weight in gold on the auto market. Their depreciation (up to now) has been incredibly low. So, if you decide you've had enough of the snobby dealers or enough rattles and squeaks after about a year or two, you'll be able to resell it for a pretty healthy sum.....and come back to the highest-quality cars on the market...Lexus.

I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with it....especially with a convertible on a nice day (most of the time for Florida). But don't let that power top crap out on you out in the open with one of those sudden Florida thunderstorms coming up.

Very nice man, make sure you go over to E46 fanatics and surf the showroom, some of those guys have very very nice cars, I dont know if they are as nice as us Lexus owners though, so watch out!! LOL

Enjoy the ride and
