hi, i am an european driver and my favorite brand is bmw, i have drove many cars and i have owned 5 differents ( 318 sedan e36, 323i 2doors e36, z3 1.8l, z3 2.0, 320ci e46 170hp )
I love this brand for : the body line, witch is the same for many years ( with evolution but we keep the D.NA. of the brand, 4 lights, and the beamer ), the quality of engines witch are powerfull, and unbreackable. The quality of the interior, and the fact that there is no 2 identics cars.
Of course in europe, bmw is everywhere but for 10years it's audi witch is the favorite german brand...goods cars too, but not rear motricity !
