My very first BMW was a Sahara metallic 2005 330Ci convertible.
I loved Goldie Hawn very much until 2009 when we hydroplaned on a wet highway and hit the median very hard.
Even making the roll over bars deploy. I did not think it was that big of an accident at the time, but with 177,500 miles on her she was declared a total loss.
I was deviated as she had been with me since her first delivery.
But I was actually looking forward to the newer models anyway so this was a sign to retire old Goldie.
So November of 2009 I got Olga. A 328i coupe in Alpine White.
Who has not had to suffer as much as Goldie did on the mileage part as I do not drive as much for work anymore.
Only 71,500 miles on the clock in 8 years.
Extremely funny to me is how their interiors smell identical.
Like melted crayons.
But these things are built like tanks.
One thing I can't stand are squeaks and rattles and neither of these cars has ever done this to me.
And I finally decided it was time to join a forum.
