My very first car was a 1998 528xi in black. I miss the hydraulic steering... I don't miss the leaks and electrical failures, though. That said, it lasted over 15 years and 160k miles without any drivetrain issues. Its time was up when the A/C stopped working and wasn't worth fixing.
Next was a 2019 X5 xDrive40i in black. Big gap here... BMW really stepped up their interiors and tech with the G generation. Got backed into in a parking lot. Shortly after, it was crashed into while at the dealer for a wash... Mom said it was unlucky, swapped it for a 2020 in gray.
And my first car in my name, a 2020 330xi in mineral white. I was almost set on an LCI F30 340xi until I saw the mineral white in person. The G20 looks good in general, but MW is just beautiful. Photos don't do it justice. Better tech and strong lease deals helped, too.
