While these are absolutely terrific driving machines, most people are all about speed. One of the problems with BMW is that their motors are built so well from the factory that there is little room to improve without going FI (see 335i). FI on BMWs is extremely expensive and install/tune costs only drive the price up higher with the expensive reputation that BMWs have. There was a thread in the E46 M3 section about a TT C6 Z06 putting down 1200+ hp. People were drooling over it. Yes, its a Z06, but even a stock C6 with a TT kit ($~7000) is putting 450+ to the wheels on stock internals. So what made you choose your BMW with limited tunability over a car such as a corvette which can be easily built? I'm expecting most answers to be about the driving experience and customer service. What else made you choose a Bimmer?

Have you sit in a Chevy lately? Imagine that you have to live with that crapyy interior/lining/ seat/ sound system/ touch ...... for the next few years of your ownership is enough to turn me off ~ even 450HP can't justify that.

Thats a good one. Thats why I didn't get a chevy, instead I put a turbo on a M3 to blast that 450hp away. When you have 850+hp on a Bmw, its insane!!!

the handling was better for me. Tried the same thing on my IS3 and got into an accident with that.

Everyone is pretty much on track with the balance of performance and driveability that Bimmers provide. I have had a 1987 325ie and currently have a 03 325i as my daily driver.
I drive it like I have somewhere to be!
This is a bit cliche but you know what they say. "Once you go BMW you never go back!"
