Is it just me or are Bemmas becoming much bigger? :)

Everything's getting bigger, or have you not seen the pic of the R35 parked behind the R34?

BMW seems to be doing it more than most, though. The E46 BMW (the previous generation) is practically the same size as the E34 5 Series from the early 90's. The upcoming 135 coupe (i.e. the "baby" of the range) is supposed to weigh 15xx kg when it comes out. That's the weight of a current generation Forester!

See what I have noticed over the years in regards to car sizes. What happens is one of 2 things (or really 3...) but the model gets bigger over time, until it gets to a point. Then then bring out a different model, or they 'compleatly re-engineer' the orginal and make it smaller again and the whole process starts over again. (option 3 being the dump it and start again)

Either way, those 3 coupes are an awesome bit of gear. They are a really nice looking car, especially considering how BMW have lost their way with styling recently.

LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
