      thank god. i love my veloster for being a shit box and cheap on gas. but hate that every time i drive it, i look like a poor pleb. there's a reason no one wants to steal a Hyundai. it's bc they are beh from day one.

      you can get a few year old 328i for dirt cheap and it has good pickup and is great on gas. the 07 335i has turbo issues that are costly.
      Much wow
      I hate 4 doors

        yeah, i'm familiar. replacing the turbo on the gencoupe was already in the upgrade path; same goes for both on a 335i. my cars don't stay stock.

                            honestly id be okay with an m54 car, but the auto trans associated with that is garbage.

                                Meh, I dunno about "garbage." They do occasionally have torque converter seal problems as mine did, though a remanufactured one from Steve at Dose BMW solved the issue. The failure results in a slight raise in RPM which is tied to emissions in the United States (although not in Europe), so if you live where emissions testing is required, a bad TC seal will cause a failure until the problem is resolved.
