No pics. I deleted them when I sold the car.

Thank you. Here you go. Only one missing is the first one - the 2001, and the 2016 X6 50 I only had for 4 months before getting into the M. I have (or had) this black envy issue. I love Black, but when I have it, I hate it because it stays clean for 2 minutes. When I don't have it, I want it. I've flipped back and forth for 20 years between black and some shade of grey, until now.

Yeah, plenty of pictures. Here are a few. Including some DIY on the 330Ci, like when I replaced the oil level sensor and replaced the valve cover gasket.

Wow! You don't keep the cars that long do you? How's the experience from the F90 towards the M850i? Probably a considerable difference right? Do you have any pics of the cars?

Wow! What an experience you had so far! 25 years - 16 BMW's! And so many different models! Obviously you're a BMW enthusiast but what makes you go from different series and how can you define the one(s) that are more suitable for your needs! I would love also to see some pictures. Like those E36 M3's

third wagon and arguably my last as they don't import them to the US anymore.

Judging by the body height of the G26 Grand coupe this may be my last BMW.

I don't keep them long, but I get a lot of miles in the time I have them. Some are 3 year leases, some leased and then purchased, some purchased.

M850 is a nicely toned down car (so is the M550). But, still a nice brute. Absolutely great long haul cruiser. What can you say about an F90 - totally awesome. 2021 M5C is probably the best car I've ever had.

Lots of pics in these travel threads

- 2003 e46 330i ZHP (supercharged) 6mt
- 2007 e90 335i (best car I’ve ever owned) 6AT

- 2005 e46 330i ZHP 6mt
- 2009 e90 335i 6mt
- 2007 e90 335i (repurchased my old one) 6AT
- 2011 e90 335i 6mt
- 2009 e90 335i (current) 6AT

Wow…Nice that's Great
