I prefer Audi over BMW, but in general, I like them.
Congrats on the purchase!
ty ty...buyers remorse this morning, lol. Payments only went up a very small amount, so I have now idea why I feel this way. I am basically still in a 4 years loan scenario. Nothing has really changed and we will most likely pay this thing off early.
BMW's can have issues, and can get very expensive once they leave the warranty cocoon, which is why I chose to extend it. Probably not the smartest move financially, but it does bring piece of mind. And since it's primarily the wife's car all she will have to do it drop it off, grab the loaner, and be on her way.
I drove an Audi in Germany and loved it, but the warranty for BMW is the sickest. The dealer is right across the street practically, and I have this car covered head to toe, including tires, for the next 5 years. The only other expense now is gas.
I sold her old BMW to get the GTI a year ago and she always was sad about that, so I owed this to her. She works her F-ing ass off and deserved it. The GTI was a blast to drive, but I had 22K on it in 1 year!, but still, I made out +2K on the exchange, so that was sweet. Besides, I am back in the TL now, so it's not like I got put back in a bucket.
But I drove it in to work this morning. This car is so money, so much more refined than the GTI obv. Power up the wazoo, but in a very smooth way.
me likey.
