My new BMW :o)

Tell me about it.  My E30 is fun as hell... and it tends to make you drive 
quicker than you think.  My E36 (now gone) could have easily gotten me in 
trouble...

But I will have to say:  My E39 528i is evil.    It's not so much like 
driving a car, but a finely tuned video game where the steering wheel 
transmits everything you want to know, except for speed.  And the computer 
reduces the G-Forces and other "unwanted" sensations to about 1/10th of 
their normal level.

Sometimes I think the E39s must fly off the assembly line at 80mph -- cause 
it's difficult to drive them slower than that.
