My first was an 2005 E46 M3. Let's just say I was screwed after that. I am now on my third BMW. I tried a 2010 MK6 GTI 4dr. when I found out I was having another girl after my M3 and enjoyed it, but the VW had no space once you threw in some child seats and couldn't fold the rear seats. I went the responsible route and upgraded to a 535i. Very comfortable and nice vehicle, but I longed for the nimble handling of the 3 series, settled into a 2011 E90 335i for now…. Lol

Fist post for me.
My first BMW was an 1974 E3 3.0L in light blue 4 speed manual with factory LSD fitted. Was a great car. A few years after buying it some douche lord stole it and ruined it. At the time is was young and couldn't afford to hang on to it and restore it. Would love to own another one one day. |

Gave it to my girlfriend in 1972. She wanted me to buy her a 2002 Tii. I bought the 3.0CS instead and gave her the Bavaria. She ran it into the ground.

My first BMW was a '72 Bavaria. My first wife ended up with it and I kept the 911 and the house! These were followed by 2nd wife who had a new '75 2002. Then a'73 2002, '81 528i, '96 M3 and currently '11 1M. We are celebrating our 40th anniversary later this week.

1990 e30 325i, 2 door, calypso red, MT. Bought new. Drove it for 10 years and 220,000 miles. I never had any problems.
What I would do to get that car back. No $100,000+ car can replace your 1st love. Little advice for the younger guys out there; try to hold on to the 1st. You'll thank me later. |

I have waited nearly 20 years to purchase my 1st and only BMW. I imagined myself in many BMW M models over the years and wondered what it would be like to drive them, to own them, to care for them...
So, the dream came true 4 months ago when I drove off with my 2012 E92 M3 in Mineral White on Black... |

My first BMW was a brand new red 1971 2002. Great little car and the only car that I drove for 7 years and sold for more than I bought it for.
