I love lamp.

I'm not sure what I would drive.  Not much else for RWD performance/premium sedans out there.

This is a hard one.  I am really not brand loyal.  I get ideas about what I like and then pursue them, sometimes with success, sometimes not.

I will say, that I rarely cross direct competitor lines, for example, I really like BMW (obviously) but have never cared for Merc or Audi, or really even VW or porsche.  In my mind those are the most direct competitors to BMW.  I don't know if it's because I'm a BMW guy or not.

My current stable is a BMW, Lotus, Ford, and Jeep.  In the past I've had a GMC, Toyota, Honda....  So....yeah, not too brand loyal.  I like a car for what the car is, I won't buy a vehicle just because I like the company that makes it.

This is exactly how I feel and view the subject. I am in no ways brand loyal, I like something for the way that it is, and the way that it functions. I might love one model of a particular brand and hate the next. It all depends on the design, construction, quality, and overall package.

My dad wouldn’t let me get a corvette for my first car. They are fun but I’d probably still wind up in something European. I like BMW for its history but I probably won’t buy new ever, I like Audi or Porsche’s styling better these days. With that said, I like anything that’s fun to drive.

Corvette's are awesome, for sure.

I'd drive cars.  Whatever tool fits the job.  BMW'S have always fit the fun tool and Nissan's before that.  I can't think of anything at the moment that I'd replace my BMW with at this moment that fits all of my needs BUT if BMW didn't exist I'd have a Chevy SS or a Mercedes E63 or C63.  Maybe a b7 RS4.  The r32 gtr would be a good choice too.
