Fantastic Phil! I'm not the least bit surprised by your comments. I had the pleasure of driving the Komen 650i almost 300 miles from SoCal to Vegas. (The wife drove a 550i with Sport.) I am still not wild about the looks but it is a superior ride. But... your whip, that blue, those wheels, maybe the look is growing on me.

Phil! this is a great write-up. If I don't get the new M3 this is 2nd in line as far as rides go. After, I get a new house...need a garage to bring in the 69 Camaro from FL.

Nice write up and definitely one of the nicest looking coupes out there.

Handling on the 6ers could be better IMO. It is a coupe that handles like a sedan. That is my only complaint.

It's a large coupe so that was somewhat expected. It actually feels larger than the E53.....Phil
