I had this car on a two year finance and paid it off in one year to avoid paying the 4%, lol. Slowly bitcoin futures and options exchange saving for a potential equity jump to "possibly" a Lotus Exige S track car that my friend may be selling in the coming years. It will be a great "friend" deal, and it's my dream track toy. Only need about $20k, or cash in a Bitcoin

. Otherwise I plan to keep this car for 10 years or so..

but is bitcoin payement acceptable?

20 years old and blessed! Love my M235i, I'm a track/preformace guy so i like adding power to an already beast of a car! Second BMW of mine after a 90 E30

Just turned 52, and kids finally stopped playing AAA hockey all over North America, so I have some $$ now lol

We bought a 01 330ci vert last spring, stole that thing !! and was looking for manual coupe. Loved the BMW so much started looking at M2, after driving decided on 235i used.

Wife loves driving too, so full support on few mods I'm doing.

Love it and maybe once they are done with college, I'll get the 911, for now, having a blast.

So for those who don't know, this is the understatement of the world. AAA Hockey? While my son never played AAA, I can tell you from experience, college will be easy compared to hockey. Congrats to you and your kids - no better experience than having kids play hockey.

it was awesome experience, eldest did a year of prep hockey/school in N.E., came back here for senior year and jumped on lower Jr team and won national championship.

He got into some solid engineering schools but decided on 2 years of Community college. (path I took)

I'm fortunate they both understand English 101/calc, shows up the same on final piece of paper, regardless of where you take it.

So hockey will end up costing more

(10's of thousands a year for both including travel...looking back I cringe arrggghhh)

I think my dream platform is Porsche for sure, the one company I would 100% go over to no questions asked. I'm a die hard BMW guy, always have been. Nonetheless some day I'll grab a 911 😍

Just turned 22, and will be looking at the M240i, M2, or M3 in the next 6 months.

60_Driver · 04-26-2021, 01:15 PM

I’m 39 & my wife is 35. Our (her) ‘16 bsm M235i 6mt vert is our 2nd BMW. We love the car and plan to keep it for a long time.

She bought a pretty base ‘13 328ix new & we traded that for the obligatory baby-hauler 3 years later. She owned 2 other BMWs prior to the ‘13. Both were manual, rwd.

airjesse · 04-26-2021, 01:33 PM

34. My second bmw after hand me down 325i wagon. Most powerful car I've ever owned by far.

Gilles79 · 04-26-2021, 03:45 PM

I'm 68. First BMW was a nice 1986 325is white with a blue leather interior. So nice in fact that my wife took it over. So I bought a 1985 Mazda
RX-7 GSL-SE. I loved that car, it was my favourite until my M240i.

Lew Carrum · 04-28-2021, 01:45 PM

54 when I got my 240, came from a z4 coupe.
