Both my wife and I are in the oilpatch and both of our respective companies got taken over last year (right after I bought my 318 damnit). It's not that bid a leap as I plan on driving the car for probably eight years unless we get bought out again. It was a executive lease w/ 15000 kms and I got a pretty good deal on it. I still love the aggressive look of the E36 but this baby moves!
