I really like it!  I bought a 2005 530xi (black Sapphire, black leather) wagon because it was cheaper than the X5 but got better milage, almost equal in cargo space, and it looks 10x nicer.  If you live north of the Mason-Dixon line, I'd recommend getting one with all-wheel drive.  The wagon only comes in AWD, but if you're looking at the sedans, then go for anything ending in "xi".  The 550 is very nice and fun to drive, but it's $9k more than the 530i and doesn't come with AWD.  IMO, the 530xi is the best deal available.  The 3.0L is a good balance of power and milage.  The V-8 has plenty of kick, but might be overkill.  Besides, AWD only comes with the 6 cylinder.  I don't like the iDrive.  Make sure you get the manual tranny.  The auto is a little sluggish.\n\nUnless you're German or own part of BMW, I'd still shop around.  My co-worker bought a 2005 Acura RL which I thought was very comparable and it has a better nav system.  The only other cars I would compare it to is the Audi A6 and Saab 9-3.  I would test drive all of these before you settle on the BMW.

my rictas, which are on the higher side of the scale, were i think 30. but you can some good ones for twenty or less. rictas, spitfire and autobahn are really good. you should probably get wheels that are made from a company that only makes wheels. zero and girl and stuff like that may look cooler, but also may wear out faster. wheel-only companies spend all their money and time on finding out good ways to make it faster, stronger, and lighter.

Honda is cheap, but will only take you so far, and its FWD.  Nissan's Z-series (I have a Z31 300ZX) is very fast and very cheap, and the 240sx is good car for engine swaps.  Toyota's best is either the supra or the MR2, the MR2 is very lightweight so it has an excellent power:weight ratio, but there is not much working room around the engine.  The mkIII supra's good but harder to find.  Go to www.ebaymotors.com and look at pictures and price to get a better idea.

Of course, Japanese cars. They are the best in quality and reliability.

I have a Suzuki Samurai. It is a 4 wheel drive vehicle like a Jeep but about 3/4 the size and made in Japan. I explore the trails in the Owyhee Mountains here in Idaho and Oregon with it. It has gotten me to some amazing places. I carry a lot of recovery equipment with me in case I get stuck. I also travel with other people in case I break down. It is the most inexpensive 4 wheel drive rig I have found and because it is small it fits between rocks that other rigs have to climb over.

I couldn't agree more.  451 cubic inches of pure Mopar Muscle.  510 Hp 544 ft/lb of torque in my 68 Dodge Charger.  I wouldn't trade it for an Evo, Subaru, and definately not a honda.

There isn';t a truck on the planet tougher than a Ford. People can say whatever they want but what it comes down to is how long will it last. The Ford is more rigid, stiffer, quieter, tows more, has more torque than anything else. I have to LMAO at Honda and Toyota truck buyers, wow are you people stupid. The Ford truck has a fully boxed frame, the only other truck that has a fully boxed frame is a Dodge. Dodges also have transmission problems, see consumer reports. Bottom line is, if your going to buy a truck, buy a FORD. Ford also has a better resale value.

A good high performance carb would be a holley . you can get them at a few auto parts stores or you can order them online at Jegs or Summit racing.

I agree with the first answer and I'll add alittle to it. If it is stock for stock and the 396 is a HP car motor then it will be faster. If you are going to be building one of these motors then the Sky's the limit. You can get a larger displacement from the 396 and will have more torque but for the money you can get more HP out of the 400. Just be aware that you cannot bore the 400 out as large as you can the 396 and there is no replacement for displacement.

I always wanted a 4 wheeler but couldn't afford one, so I ended up buying a 200x (3 wheeler) instead. Once I had that, I was hooked! It is true that they are 'more dangerous' but they are ALOT of fun as long as you know what your doing! Just remember to lean when you turn...just like a dirtbike, otherwise you can flip easily.

Get a Subaru STi and fit it with the Superzilla turbo and supporting modifications. Then dynotune it. This is over 500 horsepower.

yes, check out the bugatti veyron (world's fastest car- does 0-60 in 2.5 seconds) and the dodge tomahawk (bike that has a dodge viper engine). I don't know if they can go that fast, but pretty close for land vehicles.
