It drives great. It will put a lot of smiles on your face when behind the wheel. Probably not as trouble free as a Japanese brand though. A friend has one and it does seem to have some teething issues with the mechanics? BMW has taken care of every issue when there was one and will do so for the first 4 years.
Well, BMW is just like Porsche, they want to keep the "signature" look so that not only are you buying the brand name, you immediately know just booking at the car itself that it's a BMW and not a Lexus. I mean, it's already bad by GF can't tell the difference between my Z and a Porsche in the parking lot.
