    The last sentence in this article gave me a wonderful idea. Good thing that these guys are in Seattle, eh?

        A good car needs to be reliable, get good mpg, etc., but yeah, I won't settle for a bad interior.
        Agree completely! The interior is not as comfy as my 6 with busted seats, but its just a commuter. 35 minutes a day in it won't kill me

                Yeah my car can pull around 26mpg at 60mph with the auto - but in town the fuel economy sucks.My tranny is very tired though, probably the main part.

                That said, expect to see my 5 speed swap VERY soon

                                            Besides the lackluster seats, I sold my CTS Coupe because of the MPG. I noticed that it was exceptionally bad when I got 25mpg in my e30 and started using the LS for long hauls.

                                            So some of us drive our BMWs for the MPGs :)

                                                This.

                                                People drive BMW's to fill a void in their life or to compensate for having a small one.
