Oh! Yes it will be my daily driver. I had 911's that I drove all year round for about 10 years without any problem, and I'm happy to be doing it again!

PSM and snow tires is a good combo.

what kind of goodies/gadgets do you get in the 911, just curious.

DD 911, that blows...tried it, it sucked :) Great cars for the weekend, horrible for DD IMO.

egg nog!..assuming anyone knows what that is ...

not sure how the comparison can be made between a 911 and an E70 as a DD....

How can u expect to write a comment like ...E70 gone ..good riddance to people who actually love their BMW's then start slating BMW...ure boud to get some reaction..

Personally i have had terrible dealings with porsche and wouldnt give them the steam off my P%$$..(pardon the expression) even when my brother was buying his 2007 C2S just last year their customer care and after sales was at best abismial. not to mention the "trade in" values offered by them ...laughable!

To be honest about most of your comments about the 911 handeling better in the snow etc. are just laughable too, we dont get that much snow here in the uk anymore but we had a light covering about a month ago and my brothers c2s was pointless in it, were talking about 355bhp rear wheel drive, the frount end is light at the best of times let alone in the snow.. after i read that comment i really didnt bother reading anymore because clearly you are either insane or just lying...

sorry ..im only saying what other people are also thinking ..

I think this was all just an excuse with the wife to have a mid life crisis. If it works, go for it!
But why did you buy an SUV in the first place if you really wanted a small sports car?

There is a ton of commonality between the X5 and 911:

Both have motors
Both have wheels
Both have rims
Both have transmissions
Both have air bags
Both have seats
Etc.

The 911 doesn't have much ground clearance in the snow. I have owned two Porsche vehicles and won't own another.

Good luck,

Craig

I have also had a whole host of issues with my E70, but certainly would not go to the point of slating and comparing to a porche 911. P.S. You cannot fit 7 in a 911, I know I have one.

My Issues listed at 23 and visits to the dealership came in over 30.

Finally after much complaining I got BMW to exchange the vehicle for a new one.

I have asked around alot of other drivers, and have found that the first ones of the line (I got mine on Launch day) did have alot of issues.

Love the BMW for the drive.

How's your new vehicle treating ya?
