Older woman that I think owns a nail salon right by where I work owns one.
Mildly modded too! But someone put an M badge after the 850 *cringe* (unless my ignorance of BMW shines thru here, it doesn't look like it is supposed to be there anyway...)

I just quit my job at a bimmer stealership, was there for five years and I have to say
the cars are amazing. But, it took them a lot longer to design and build cars like Audi was doing for the longest time. Like the interior styling and fit and finish and luxury touches. For example, my old 91 200 would compare to a 7 series of the same year, in regards to styling inside, and out mind you. They do drive very nice though. I have a 98 1.8tq now and comparing that car with a bimmer of the same year? Forget about it, bimmers don't even come close to the handling and driving feel of the almighty quattro 
. The way my car drives feels like the new bimmers with the active steering option (varies the steering ratio proportionate to speed). What I do appreciate about the bimmers is the performance asspect. They managed to combine great trannys with the engines and they work very well together, without any fuss. Any how, bimmers are good but Audi is forever!!! NEVER FOLLOW!!

nothing about feeling older. most recently, some a55hat in a 330 "raced" me to a merge point to the
start of a contruction zone with a flagger standing in his lane (right). I pulled away normally in the left lane and from about a length back, I can hear him mashing the gas to beat me to the merge point. So, for the safety of the flagger, especially since I wasn't sure if Mr. A55hat bimmer driver was going to make it, I lifted so there was plenty of room. Even the flagger took a step back. I followed the bimmer through the contruction zone and proceeded to pass him on the right at the next traffic light that was turning red to have a little talk with him. All I got was a smarta55 smirk from him and a "I'm sorry." that meant nothing. I really should've called the local BMW dealer because it had dealer plates on it, which means that was probably a salesman.
