4. I had a BMW 528e in college. I am a car snob, but am getting better. Heck I just joined the mini van club and it’s not the top of the line mini van with all the bells and whistles. I had to settle for what’s going to fit best for our growing family at the moment. Someday, I will have my beamer again though. Although, now that I am selling arbonne, it will probably be a Mercedes first
