fave parts probably the painting machine (it shuts the door lol) and the liquid dipping machine.

That was a good watch.

Awesome german engineering for ya.

faaark, thats some uber machinery

i drive exactly the same car (323i) and i love it best thing ive driven in a while, the precision and control etc i can see what german engineering means now

thats f***ing amazing

hard to believe any car manufacturer turns a profit when you see a giant robot arm whos sole purpose seems to be putting the spare tyre in the boot

they sold 500-600k of them last year so i cant see why they wouldnt profit

bmw's are very over priced... i'd still own an M3/5/6 though.

theyre actually sold to Aus distributors for comparitively f*** all, its the taxes laid on top that jack the price through the roof

Twas a good watch. Would've been better if I understood German.

eye noo dat mackse

yeah all the taxes are bulls***, if you have a look at www.autotrader.com.au the americans have pretty nice prices

I don't know much about cars, but I love the look of that old 8 series one.
