Will your next car be a BMW?

Nikki · 11-30-2005, 05:00 PM

I love my car so much and I see myself getting a new 3 series after this one. I'm on a 3 year lease, so I'll either lease another, or keep mine until they redesign it.
The only other car that I am eyeing is a Porsche...I don't know if they are coming out with a redesigned GT2 or GT3 (not a Porsche follower...yet) but those are incredible cars. I suppose it depends on where I am living and if I have kids then but I really would like one in a deep burgandy color-yum! Maybe I will get a used one as a second car in a few years.

deutschmann59 · 11-30-2005, 05:13 PM

Personally Nik, I think the Porsche is a great car, but I'd only get one as a toy. I mean, I wouldn't get rid of my regular driving sedan and replace it with the porsche. I wouldn't have any problem parking a porsche along side my 3-er, but the porsche couldn't be my primary car.

Actually, I'd like to stay with BMW, even when it comes to toys. I was thinking about looking into an M3 convertible in addition to a newly redesigned (2010-2012?) 3 Series, after I get settled into a new house and figure out what my house payments/bills/taxes will be.

Nice to dream about, though!

ward · 11-30-2005, 05:50 PM

the next car won't be for awhile, but I need a commuter to spend all day in (325 currently) and I am currently able to have a 2nd car for fun

I'll probably replace the 325 before I replace the toy, and I'll probably replace it with another 3, unless they bring the 1 over

my next toy.... hhmmmm a next generation Z4?? Cayman... 911....

porsche is the only thing that could lure me away from BMW,
but next car bought will definetly be a BMW hopefully a 1 series!

btc · 11-30-2005, 05:50 PM

Yes, I can see myself in another BMW , maybe a future redesign 3 series coupe.

Yep, me too!

northerncalguy · 11-30-2005, 06:57 PM

The new E90-based M3 for me. Hopefully a 4 door will come to life in year or so.

E90-4life · 11-30-2005, 07:15 PM

My next car will be an E90 3 for sure.... which one?... I dont' know...

Now that I've done more thinking, I probably won't get my car until after I graduate... which is good and bad, but overall a very good thing!

By the time I'm 35 I plan on having a Porsche and Bimmer, very likely

arn · 11-30-2005, 07:47 PM

I have my eyes on the porsche cayman s

... Personally, I find it sexy looking!!!

puck724 · 11-30-2005, 07:48 PM

hopefully i can have a bimmer the next time around. med-school bills might put a crimp on those plans though...

Mikey3 · 11-30-2005, 08:07 PM

BMW0 · 12-01-2005, 09:43 AM

I get one for the weekend, BMW for work

Robin_NL · 12-01-2005, 09:44 AM

I'm unsure. Maybe a EVO9, 350Z or a 335i or 335d or even a 130i/230i coupe/M2.

Dunno yet.

afocoryw20 · 12-01-2005, 09:51 AM

I would like an M3,M5,M6 or just a 645 will do....

icedragon · 12-01-2005, 09:54 AM

My next car will be a Lexus!! Haha, jks.
I will drive my E90 until the new 3-series comes out.
Or until I save enough for a Cayman.

bimmerwannerbie · 12-01-2005, 10:09 AM

My next car? Havent even start paying for the current one. I'll think about it later. Let see if is true that once you go with BMW, there is no turning back.

so really your next car is the bmw.....lol.

shimshimhada · 12-01-2005, 10:43 AM

I think the GT3 and Turbo are coming out as MY07s, the GT2 are supposed to come out shortly after that.

Spy shot of the 997 GT3:

shimshimhada · 12-01-2005, 10:48 AM

My next car will be a Porsche or a BMW...maybe a Ferrari

I'm keeping this car for ten years though, and I'm saving up the money for whatever.

zdognaylor · 12-01-2005, 10:53 AM

M3

Dante · 12-01-2005, 11:08 AM

Next will be a 320dT M-sport as company car.

Also I´m considering trading my 1970 MG B GT in for Z4 3.0 coupe, as fun toy
