i've had my ride close to 2 years now, and i smile every single time i see it. all the BS i've gone through, 2 stupid ass deployments, busting my ass at work in the military and as a civilian. the ride for me is a symbol of hard work paying off. especially because its a ride that i didn't have to settle with. i got everything i wanted, and the car is freaking beautiful.
and i also smile more when people are looking at me getting in the car as if it doesn't belong to me. haters make me smile.

I smile like crazy in both the daily, modded & tuned 428i, decent little all around setup it has, and in the 99' E36 M3 I just bought to take over as the primary track car and sometimes daily/canyon carver !! I smile as I drive in one and see the other in front of my place or in the garage. Tuned boost, and NA Inline 6 fun, rowing gears in either is amazing. You gotta be grateful that you're able to have a hobby like this, care for your machine, track it, drive it right. Cars are life man.

You were spoiled.
I don't mean that to be mean, and I say that from a position of envy rather than jealousy. Personally, I hope I'm successful enough over the next decade that I can buy my son a car of that caliber for his 18th birthday - and in saying that - I'm not saying you only had that because of your parents; maybe you worked for it and had great taste as a child. But you, my friend, were spoiled. I love my 135i. I do wish I'd bought an M. For the price I paid in the first 12 months of N54 ownership I could've easily had an M. My little car will outrun a //M in a straight line, and probably under most circumstances in traffic ... but it'll never be a "real" M. But I consider myself spoiled to have the car I have, and I don't think I've driven a single mile in it where it hasn't brought me a smile.

Nope, you are not the only one. I'll go into my garage just to look at my e90 m3 from different angles. Man, I love it BUT, I have been considering switching it up for a convertible 2010 e63 m6 6mt. We have a SUV(MDX) and another sedan (A4) So I no longer need a 4 Dr m3, however I don't want an e93 m3 at all. I feel like my e90 is just fast enough and the convertible is too noticeably slow in comparison. Thats where the ragtop 6mt M6 comes in.
