I've been thinking about this since I really cannot find a good car to replace my Jimny a few years down the line. My daily being both usable and fun is the biggest concern, and "going up the ladder" with brands/power seems to only bring more creature comforts, and no increased fun factor

The BMW is refined and responsive, but I just can't seem to find a good way to put it to use without risking my license. Is a low-powered manual really the only way to have constant fun on high revs and frequent shifts without having to worry about killing myself and someone else?

Hopefully it stays in stock long enough to grab one. Thankfully it's not scalped that much despite its low availability here

The golden age ;_;
