i don't think bimmers were ever meant to be muscle cars, like 'stangs, 'vettes, chargers. it's all about handling and the feel you get when you drive them. so yeah, as you said it yourself, you don't get a BMW if a fast car is what you want. unless you have lots of dough and get an M5 or M6. then you can have it all
btw, you woke up next to a male and you only refer to him as "a friend" ??? i wish i had friends like that when i was still single...
