BMW 3 Series without a doubt!!!!! Once you sit in a BMW (regardless of model), the quality will make the decision for you. I 100% agree with other postings...American cars are not built with any quality, and will never hold up to daily driving, weather conditons and abuse. BMWs (and most other German marks) are engineered to withstand harsh climates, extreme speeds and lots of abuse.

Getting a BMW will save you tons in gas money compared to your Denali, and you will have a smile everyday from point A to Point B.

BMW.....no choice about it!!!!!!

Absolutely no more American cars for us. European and Japanese quality is much better; it's kinda too bad. Even the new Cadillacs seem plasticky (?sp). I drive my wife's Lexus RX and while it's ok, I much prefer my BMW.

I only hate backing out of parking spaces in an SUV forest and PRAY that some woman on the cell phone drinking her latte in her Navigator/Suburban/LX doesn't plow into me. Honestly, I do not understand why these women must drive what are really best classified as small trucks. They should need a special license; most of them have no idea how big their vehicles are when you watch them (forget parallel parking). I'm done here. [sing]

BTW isn't a Denali just a fancied up Chevy something? Get a BMW if you like to drive.

I'm with you, too. I knew I wanted another convertible to replace my '98 Mustang and almost settled for less. I looked at the Audi A4, but it just didn't do it for me. It was in my price range, though. BMW just seemed out of reach. I really didn't want another Mustang because it isn't a very solid car and I just don't care for the look of the Saab.

After thinking it over, I decided it had to be a BMW or nothing. I mentioned this to my wife and to my surprise she said that she had always wanted one. She had just always assumed it was beyond our means. After looking at them for two months and doing some heavy research on options and financing, I realized that it wasn't a stretch at all to buy the car I always wanted. No, it's not an M3 or 330, but it has all the power I need. Any more and I couldn't afford the tickets. [burnout]

I picked up a 325 CiC, Premium Package, Sport Package, Xenon, Heated Seats, HK Sound (not the best, but just dandy for me), Steptronic, in Silver Gray with gray interior. It's everything I want and I look forward to driving it every day. I still have my 2001 F150 Supercrew, but I much prefer the BMW. The truck is only around if we need to haul sometheng.

An added bonus is that I now spend less time on my computer and more time outside. Granted, it's spent cleaning my poor tires, but that's a small price to pay for such a sweet ride. [driving2]
All gravy until she locked the keys in the car eh?

She didn't lock it in there. She lost it. She's already gotten a new one, but it cost her $170 and the time to take it in and have the lost key deactivated from the system.
