E30 M3 is NOT expensive (especially now). $10-$20,000 MAX. M Coupe is around $30,000 max.

You're missing the point. POS has nothing to do with it. This is all in the eye of the beholder. There are lots of cars that are deemed "crappy" but they are cool cars. An old Ford pickup truck, old Jeeps and Rovers, old muscle cars, etc. They may look crappy by today's standards but have 100% testosterone running through them.

If all these "man" cars are so cheap, why don't you have one?

When the E30 M3 first came out, it was more expensive than other 3 series (because of it's M lineage) and the M5 is more expensive than most other BMW's. So are M-Coupes. Price factors into the equation and I'm only talking about Bimmers. You should stick to the parameters that you set for us instead of going on tangents.
I'm just giving examples to give you a better idea of what I'm looking for by comparing other cars. My point was, just becuase a car is considered a POS, doesnt mean it's not a man's car. For example, in BMW terms, A Bavaria or a 2002 are rather manly BMWs.

As for the price point...I'm not talking about "when they came out." I'm talking about now. Back at the time they came out they might have been kind of girly, but over time they may have grown into a "Man's BMW."

The fact that I'm having to define this so much means it really is lost to most of you. Rob got it right off the bat. As did a few others. If ater this you're still not getting it, it's not very likely you will...

Maybe the reason no one's getting this is b/c of your poor grammar. You should use some of that college loan and actually go to college.

You should give better examples. BMW doesn't make an equivalent of a Jeep, pickup, or Camaro - that's what makes them so great. I've seen girls driving 2002's (so based on prior responses, logic would dictate that this would discount the 2002 as a "man's" car, so scratch that off the list). Guys like the high end BMW's, whether they're still as expensive as they once were. Girls generally don't care how much horsepower they're packing, what their final drive ratio is, or how tight their stance looks, so they won't pay extra to get those options. Oh, and as for "getting it", I mentioned the M5 in my first post so I think I get it just fine.

Good revision Prince: In the third draft the "a" goes before the "u" in "because", there's no apostrophe in "loans", and the ass would have a capital "a" and a period. Get in touch when you're done.

Nice job! A++! Question: If I'm an "ass", does that make you a royal ASS Prince?
