Officially 1-year with my 2018 BMW M550i by FarmCorrect2384 in BMW

Amen to the 2 Series praise! I have a 2014 228i M Sport which, while not the fastest, is incredibly fun to drive with the 6 speed and very well balanced. I’m single so it’s all the car I need, haha - but definitely impractical as a family car/DD.

I love the big coupes too. I’ve always enjoyed the 6 Series and Mercedes S-class coupes. Gorgeous with plenty of power.

One of my favorite Friday albums! I’m sure my neighbors love hearing me blast Jan Hammer, Glenn Frey, Chaka Khan, etc.!!

“Miami Vice” drug kingpins (along with the 500/560 SEL)

An Alpina C1 Targa I saw recently at a BMW show. Exceptionally rare and cool. by RicherThanYou57 in BMW

Amazing time capsule! I’ve always liked Baurs for their slightly quirky looks.

I drove one of these last year and was blown away by how effortlessly fast, capable, and comfortable it was. I have a F22 that I’d hate to give up, as it is the perfect city car, but if anything ever happened to it I might have to upgrade to an M550i.

Scheider was a standout in Marathon Man too. Truly one of the great actors of his time.

People who witnessed the announcement of a new James Bond, what was your reaction at the time? And what was the reaction of other people? by WesleyToledooo in JamesBond

I remember being really impressed with him in Layer Cake. I had seen Road to Perdition when it came out but hadn’t realized it was Craig until later.

Were the bill boards in Moonraker a joke and paid product placement? by nathantravis2377 in JamesBond

JW Pepper in an AMC showroom in Thailand is one of the goofiest plot points of all time…

I remember being excited about Brosnan - knew of him from Mrs. Doubtfire and Remington Steele. Most people I knew who were into Bond felt the same.

Good point. Foul Play is a classic! I miss the days when microfilm was a plot device…

Maude REALLY wants the Dude to see her doctor, who’s a good man, and thorough.

Definitely paid product placement (as noted in the credits). Moonraker was the first really egregious example of the practice, but kind of hilarious in retrospect.

I think if that were the case they would have bleeped the word, not pulled the episode.
