My first one was a 2003 540i M-Package. Miss driving this car. Still see it all the time because my neighbour bought it from me

My first was a 335d SE Touring; brilliant car that we kept for almost six years.
Replaced with an M135i that up the fun level several stages; hard to fault it for our needs.

Definitely impressed with BMWs.

My first of over ten BMWs so far was a 1999 E46 Orient Blue 323i sedan. I thought I was cool putting the Z8 wheels on it. Bought it on Dec 31, 1999, right before Y2K!

My first BMW was a new red 1971 2002. I had it for ten fun years as my daily driver. It also saw the track several times and was auto crossed.

First BMW: 1972 2002 new

I just enlisted in the USAF, had a rare 2-week break after boot-camp. I called best HS chum, now working at Ron Tonkin Import Center in east Portland-the BMW store at the time, also Lotus, among others.

Next day I'm there mid morning. He lined up 2002 tii silver and a base model also silver. Airmen pay hardly supported a 'new anything'. $3,600 MSRP IIRC, financed...and the silver /SR base was mine. Had it for 72k miles. Replaced with a 1975, different color. Both were fantastic.

Left days later, 700 mi showing. Drove to Shreveport, LA, maybe 2100 mi as I recall. Monumental drive.

No matter the nearest dealer was Richardson, TX. My 3000mi service I drove there on a Monday morning. Arrived just as they needed xtra hands to return vehicles from the major mall there; new '73 all-marques cars show displayed that prior weekend. Lot full of new every model imaginable.

Walking among half dozen remaining BMW 4-door models, GMgr unhesitatingly threw me the keys to the lone coupe: 1973 manual tranny INCA Gold 3.0 CSi.

'Bout fainted seriously, 19 yrs. young!

I still remember that steering feel, the dynamics, the ride, the huge steering wheel, the creamy ride/handling balance.

I faintly recall an intoxicating aroma as I pen this... the richest, supple, tan leather ever put in a vehicle.

First one was a 2000 X5 which was great, then traded it for a 2001 330 coupe(wife got an SUV), then traded that for an 05 545 which BMW did a lease swap because it was a nightmare for an 06 550i(winning). Took a break for financial reasons and now back in a 2014 535i. Wife had a 2014 X3 which we traded in for a 2015 428 gran coupe. Now our son has an 07 E92 335...we might be a BMW family but my rock crawling Wrangler breaks things up a bit!!

My first was a 1970 BMW 2002 in Bristol Grey. I bought it slightly used in Feb 1971. I do not have a picture of it.
My current BMW is number 18 and I am thinking of a new one (possibly F30 340i xDrive).
They do become habit-forming..!!

You swing for the fences. If you swing at them you will look like a weirdo with a bat in the outfield.

How did this shopping experience go, "let me see what these are all about, I'll start with something like 320 just to get a feel for the brand first... hmmmm... what do we have here Mr. friendly salesman, could I test drive that, maybe ?".

Nice, looks great, and manual too.

Got my first BMW back in 2009, an E90 328i (pic below). Currently have an F30 328i which I'll likely be replacing with an M235i later this year.
