I finally bought my family car

Abe BMW (Abe Motors Shinagawa Showroom)

I'm writing this blog about Porsche because I love Porsche, but I've always owned one BMW since I was single until I got married.

After all, the couple also like BMW. My BMW itinerary is:

I (before marriage): BMW 318is (Right AT)
Husband (before marriage): BMW 318is (left MT), Z3 (left MT)
After marriage: BMW 323i (right AT), BMW 550i (right AT), BMW 650i Grand Coupe (left AT)

The current car is the BMW 650i Grand Coupe.

It's been a long time, so I thought I'd buy a new one, and I've been looking for a family car to replace this 650i.

Looking back on the past, it seems that I started looking seriously from around 2019 ↓

◆ Mercedes AMG GT 4-door Coupe 63S 4MATIC (Edition 1)
◆ Long-distance driving with Porsche Macan. A day trip of 800 kilometers
◆ BMW X7, M8, New 7 Series & New 8 Series Special Preview @ Grand Hyatt Tokyo
◆ I went to see the BMW M850i xDrive Grand Coupe
◆ Go to BMW in search of a family car
◆ A family car for a family of 3 and 5 children has been decided
◆ Looking for a car for a family of 5 ... Bentley Bentayga test drive

so. After all, I couldn't find a car that I could decide "this is it", so I decided to go through the 650i car inspection that is coming soon.

Become a BMW refugee

By the way, BMW Takanawa, who was always indebted when I decided to pass the vehicle inspection, closed (changed to another company), and a while ago my sales person (in charge of new cars) also retired. From what I was doing, when I think about it, I don't know which BMW dealer should take care of me in the future.

Even though I have been a BMW user for decades, I suddenly don't know which dealer to go to, or a BMW refugee. What is that (laughs).

Well, when I was thinking about what to do, a person who had a god and got acquainted with Porsche connected introduced me to that person's BMW sales person, so I decided to take care of that person in the future. did.

That is here. Abe BMW in Shinagawa ~ ^^

… The introduction has become long, but suddenly for this reason, we went to Abe BMW Shinagawa, which is the first visit for our couple.

When I stopped by and showed the inside of the store, I encountered this car.

Dodon. Oh, a big kidney grill! Isn't this the new M4?

If you take a closer look, what a left handle MT specification.

If I was asked "Please choose your favorite BMW for yourself" instead of a family car, I was likely to answer "Then, this is it" immediately. The color is black ^^!

Left MT is nice ~.

M4 is good ~.

However, this is not the purpose of this time, so I greeted the sales person I met for the first time and said, "I would like to ask for a 650i vehicle inspection here."

"I really wanted to buy a new one before the vehicle inspection, but I couldn't find a family car that seemed to be this, so I decided to go through the vehicle inspection for the time being," he said.

Then he said, "Oh, I have 840 diesels right now, so why don't you try a little test drive?"

Here, the left is my 650i and the right is 840d ↓

I thought, "Well, I've been worried about the 8 Series, so I'd like to test drive the 840 again ...", but he said, "It's not like diesel, so just try it." So I took a little ride.

Then, yeah, it certainly doesn't look like diesel! So, while talking about various things from there, "But in my home, I'm not particularly particular about diesel, so after all it may be okay to use the 850i, which I always thought was" this ". I started to consider the 850i Grand Coupe again ^^

However, the 850i is a little difficult to sit in the middle of the back seat ... (Photo is 840d) ↓

I went to ask for a car inspection because I wanted to give up buying a family car for a while, but for some reason I started considering buying a family car again starting from the 8 series ... But in the end, I said, "It doesn't feel right." I wonder if I will stop ... Ah, does history repeat itself like this?

No, I didn't repeat it.

I bought it this time.

I have decided.

A new family car that replaces the BMW 650i Grand Coupe.

We are surprised at the sudden event. But somehow, there was a car that looked good this time, saying, "Oh, I like it. Let's do this." There is timing.

The photos are not in time yet, so I would like to introduce my new family car in the next blog. What did you decide in the end ... Fufufu. What is it ^^?

Continue tomorrow ^^!
