Not sure why it wouldn't play as it did from within YouTube before posting the URL. Re-upped the video again, generated new URL and added that to the original post so it's now working.

Interesting the broad range of owners.
For those under 30 what was the deciding factor between other options

I’m 29 and have an 840d Coupé

Deciding factor - I wanted something more exclusive and grown up than my Z4 M40i!

Reason was just fun and joy.

I wonder how many of those under 30 are spending more on their car than on their rent.

Thank you for the absolutely LOL moment of the day. I'd likely do the same outside of just coming into the house for a shower. However, my wife with several Power of Attorney privileges will kill that dream and start a process to claim I am mentally incapable and force me back into the house.
