'01 X-5 (which will soon be for sale, like tomorrow)- Can't stand the car. Has SUV handling, in spite of what they tell you at the dealership. Also, for some reason, BMW can't engineer an air conditioning system worth a damn.
I also drive a '98 SLK that AMG had its way with, though it isn't an AMG. Went through a thorough engine modification, suspension, and the like, but stopped short. It is a wonderful automobile, and, fifty years from now, when I am old and gray, if diagnosed with a terminal illness, I hope to drive it very fast off a cliff into the Pacific Ocean.
