Car memories, Part 1

Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
I had fun reading my colleague Rob Rothwell's blog about the many different cars he used to own (or dreamed of owning) until I realized that I went through a fair share of automobiles myself, including a few memorable and controversial ones. To tell you the truth, some of my personal four-wheel possessions would have anybody seriously doubting my judgment and knowledge as an auto journalist. However, I fully embraced them as most if not all of them were justified (or justifiable) in my mind. Full story...

2010 BMW M3 Coupe

2010 BMW M3 Coupe
2010 BMW M3 Coupe - BMW Luxury Sport Coupe Review - Automobile Magazine
Any car enthusiast would likely be perfectly happy to drive this car every day.

From the hood scoop to the chiseled sheetmetal, the new M3 coupe is both restrained and extroverted, in true German style. The Melbourne metallic red paint-a reasonable $550 option-two pairs of chrome tailpipes, and a carbon-fiber roof complete the subtle yet conspicuous high-performance look. The options boxes were liberally checked on this car bringing the price to just over $66,000. It's worth noting that this M3 coupe was fitted with the standard-issue wheels instead of the bright aluminum wheels that come as part of the $2500 competition package included on this car. Although I've only seen them side-by-side in pictures, I think I prefer the standard gray wheels as they temper the M3s conspicuous half.
