Runs very smooth and is a dream come true!
I've had my BMW for almost three years now and every since I got it I haven't had any major problems. The only problem is that if my car decides it wants to give out the parts for getting it fixed would be highly expensive due do the type of car it is.

It has a v8 engine, 6 - speed manual, comfy seats, perfect for long rides.
Perfect among roads, I haven't faced any problem throughout the years I have used it, it is comfortable, it's a full option car, it has a limited interior storage, it's good for driving on highways, easy for daily drives on a busy schedule, there's no perfect car but this one does it all.

It is fast and very fun to drive.
Compared to other models i have been in, this model seems to be smaller and more cramped as i am a tall guy. The car runs and feels so nice while driving it is hard to complain.
