BMW's Are B-E-A-U-tiful! But So Are Audi's And Porsche's!

I really get a good laugh when I read some of the commenter's, who claim all I like are BMW's and that BMW is PAYING me off, to exude all the praise I give them.

What these uninformed souls don't realize is that if I could afford it, I'd have them ALL in my dream garage.

EVERY premium manufacturer has one or more products I personally love.

So let's take a look at some of my favorites.

On my way up to Bimmerfest, I stopped to visit my buddy Glen Fagin up at the Auto Gallery and he let me in on a little secret.

If you call him directly 818-932-1675 and tell him you heard this from 001, he will sell you one of those two AMAZINGLY gorgeous Audi RS4 convertibles for $1000 over INVOICE!!!!

Man, the car biz is hurting when a SoCal dealer has to drop their drawers THAT bad on a car that good.

And while you're there, check these other beauties out...LOVE the A3 with the kit! $15G's extra!

ALL the A3's should look that cool!

This weekend, the Spies put together the hottest Bimmerfest photo gallery for your viewing pleasure...

Well put. Thats what I'm always trying to say. Each one reaches a different audience, that doesn't mean one is a POS and the other is flawless. I love em all.

You had it going until you dropped that ridiculous M1 comment. Why would they give 001 an M1 when clearly, they could get by with an M3?

0-60- Of course it couldn't as simply as BMW's may simply be better?

Nah.... it couldn't BE that simple, now could it?

A conspiracy theory is just so much easier to explain.

Notice all the Lexus banner ads on this site, the Lexus sponsored photo galleries...now do you see any BMW ads? If 001 could be bought the GS450h he received would have done the trick, unless its just not good enough

Best based on who's opinion? I dont think BMW is the best. I think they are a great car company and they produce great products but that of course is also an opinion.

I agree with most comments here. As a daily visitor of this site (along with a dozen or so others), I view it almost as a BMW site (certainly a German car site). Forces me to take any opinions I read with a grain of salt because I see little objectivity and lots of bashing when someone offers a view outside the majority.

As a result, I use Autospies more as a jumping off point for the links.

Everyone's perspective is valid, but if the intentions of AutoSpies is to NOT be perceived this way, then they need to make an effort to force more of a balance in topics and not be so accepting of abusive comments.

Flame away guys :)

Did you ever watch ANY of his videos with Lexuses? He repeatedly called the LS600hL "GORGEOUS!" and was drooling over all of its features. He also dribbled all over the Infiniti EX35 when he first saw it. This guy isn't actually biased, he just moves from one car to the next very quickly. He's very CA--into the "next big thing."

Agent 001, why are there always grammar mistakes in your posts? Audi's = possessive not plural. Pic's = possessive. Pics = plural. Not trying to be an English teacher or anything, just amazes me how many people on this and all other boards who can afford expensive cars don't have basic English knowledge.

If you want perfect grammar, you'll get late news.

Our game is all about speed.

Road & Track is your read if that's what you're looking for.

And they'll tell you, based on the fact that we are kicking all their butts, that speed KILLS.

Spell and grammer checker only takes a second... Well for you guys it will likely take a little longer, however wont cause that much of a delay. Its a real helpful utility

I just had to register and post as the title of this "article" hurts my eyes. 3 mistakes in one title. "Agent001" needs to learn that it is Porsches, not Porsche's; BMWs, not BMW's, etc. One does not have to be an English major to know that you do not use apostrophes for plurals.

Nice cars though...

Of course no one has used beatiful and Audi in the same sentence. The audi R8 just won World Car Design of the Year.

Slower..... 0-60 in 3.9 seconds and the BMW M6 is history when racing the R8

Cheaper?? $109,0000 > price of any BMW M car currently in production

We will not let the disillusioned amazinBimmer and Larry win in their quest to hurt Audi's image.

But I have to say, later in the day I saw a black S5 with only its LEDs on, and boy, that car is ridiculously close to the R8 in hotness.

BMW, Audi, Merc... YAWN!! The current designs are sooo boring. Seriously, you would HAVE to be sponsored by them to publicly say that they are anything other than mundane.

You want style and design? Buy an Alfa. Oozes design flair from every oriface and they are just as reliable and well built as any Binner, oops I mean Bimmer... not to mention FASTER!
