Compare what actually happens in the video to whatever romanticized version many Jalopnik car people have in their head. I'm going on record that this version is much more realistic.

This is basically what my brother-in-law had. I don't remember him having many problems with it. I think just a weird shift/transmission thing where it wouldn't change gears electronically. He had a black convertible. Only reason he got rid of it was because he lives on a steep hill and it was terrible in the snow. At least with the tires he had on it that (not snow tires).

I think he had an E46 so this is the previous gen. I don't remember if he said what year, but assume that is a 20 year old car. This one was also lowered. You'd have a lot of Jalopnik people drooling over this but it's the E36 so performance isn't that great, and also this is a convertible/automatic. Hopefully no self respecting enthusiast would end up with it.
