Default Sold my car today!!

Alright i sold my bimmer today and i'm looking at getting another car....it went for 4000 Anyway tomorrow i'm going to check out a 1998 528i white with tan leather original owner-dealer serviced 100k miles fully loaded for like 10gs....but i'm not sure if i want a big car. What do you guys suggest to do? I was looking at 92-95 civic coupes but none that really made me think. I have money but i'm not sure if i want to spend it on a car because after all i'm still only going to have a car no matter how fast or how big bottom line is it's a car. Help me out guys. Thanks
Dace

From the looks of your garage you don't need to spend money on another one. Yeah, they are your girls, but I bet you still get to drive them, right?

If you are wanting to go honda/acura, I would point my direction at a type-r or GSR, or a built EG civic.

as far as anything else, im not up to par on BMW cars, so I couldnt really speak on that matter.

This doesnt have a direct bearing, but here are my thoughts after having driven a new gran prix this weekend:

Big hravy cars suck. This grand prix had the 3800 200 hp V6 and was rated at 8.5 0-60 (1.5 sec slower than my time in my Y7 at 8 psi) . Big cars are a bear to drive after you have spent so much time in a small car. You feel like you are sloshing around in them. Plus, the amount of gas that it takes to move a 5 series to a nice 0-60 vs. a smaller car to 0-60 is a big consideration.

honestly man, speaking from experience, im gonna help u out with this one. Bmw's are for rich old people, thats why they are made luxury.. They are the only ones who can afford that high *** maintenance cost. ------- anything goes wrong and your out 500$ if its a tranny, u out 4k... not to bad if ur a ceo of a company or something.
Moral of the story, stay away from expensive old euros... get urself a nice jap sports car or lil toy and make it nice
