30 years of sport sedan success. From the 2002 to the present fifth generation e90 sedan, the BMW 3 series has been the benchmark for premium sport sedans. A car to be driven not to be driven in. One of the greatest looking cars on the road. Better than Mercedes C class, Audi A4 and any japanese sedans ex: Lexus.

The BMW 6 series, otherwise known as the BMW E24 is the last truly great BMW ever made. It has a coupé design (pronounced coopay), powered by the M30 or S88/S38 engine, a variant of the engine used in the BMW M1 (the second last truly great BMW ever made).
The car has extremely broad appeal, loved even by people who wouldn't normally consider themselves car enthusiasts. Some even hold the car in high regard from an artistic standpoint and a number were painted by artists such as Ernest Fuchs and Robert Rauschenberg. Diggory Venn even has written many great poems about them and his travels in the across the Australian outback.
It is a truly great car that a very select few get to appreciate ownership of.

Lowered E30 owner: eh bro check out that hectic Bimmer
Ferrari owner: show some respect, that's a BMW 6 series - it's truly the best car ever made.

A very fine automobile. Very sporty indeed, BMW pioneered the sports sedan with this (along with the M3). Regardless how how much horse power some American POS has bet your fine ass that a bimmer can match it's speed with 100less hp. What BMW puts into this car is pure magic that while maybe isn't better for some this magic is just on a whole different level than Mercedes Benz, Audi, Lexus, etc. This magic alone is why a $60k (M3) car can light up someones face more than a $200k car. Don't talk shit about this car being a "poor mans BMW" because I doubt you have 45k to spend on a fully loaded 3 series sedan let alone the coupe with all wheel drive or the IS model or even the M3.
Person1: I just got a new BMW 3 series, I LOVE it!
Persom2: zomg my Benz is so cooler
Person1: right...now I see what Mercedes Benz has been degraded to in the US.

Originating from the BMW 2002, the 3 series has set the standard for sports sedan category, and remains to be an excellent machine today. Many other companies have made cars that can compete, but BMW still provides the best driving experience hands down, and regularly wins in comparisons against the competition. Although near the entry level for BMW, a stripped 335 convertible will be at least $50,000. Also known for being hated on by those who cannot afford it, similar to most other expensive foreign cars. But, as an owner, I would highly recommend this car to everyone, as its quite fast, gets amazing gas mileage, and in 5 years of ownership, I have yet to do anything besides routine maintenance.
Hater: "Wow, you have a BMW, you must be a total asshole!"
BMW Driver: "Don't be angry because your car is a pile - rather, you should judge people on their personality, rather than superficial traits or items"
Hater: "Dick!"
BMW Driver: "Ah, well, its not my fault you're an idiot"
Person 1: "I've been looking at the BMW 3 series - i've heard that they're an amazing car"
BMW Driver: "Yeah, they look amazing, drive great, get amazing gas mileage, and have an amazing maintenance plan - BMW will play for anything for the first four years"
Person 1: "Damn, that sure beats my American POS thats been to the shop five times in the first year of ownership, is ugly, and gets terrible mileage"

A BMW made to be more affordable for the trailer trash, wanna be rich, other poor people who can't afford any series above that.
BMW Owner: I have a BMW 3 Series its !!! ME: Wow I am sure you like your entry level over produced car. Boy your special!!! Why didn't you get the 5?

The 7 series was a great car up until it head designer Chris Bangle Bangled it up in 2002. The controversy is said to have led to the 2006 freshening, which, imo, is much better looking.

The LED tail lights on the BMW 7 series are pretty stylish, but not even they are enough to save the cars looks.

and overpriced car considering that disgusting styling! The 760 has to be the biggest rippoff ever knowing that the E55 is faster than ALL of them and is 40,000 dollars less than the 760.
