As Tommy Smother's once sang in a song... Those things'll grow on ya!

And they do. It's very like a thumb. Ugly at first and then you discover how indespensable the darn thing is. That's an e12 for you.

BMW, Class, Unique looking, Utilitarian, Performance can be enhanced, race-able, solid and very safe to be bounced around in, dependable (regardless of what you hear). Yes, a bit costly, but a fraction of the price of newer cars that die much earlier deaths.

I have a 630CSi, and a 733i... both wonderful, but different cars, and I always seem to end up in one of the e12's. Odd, huh?
