Ive just grown up with my fair share of cars, Ford, GM,
European, Japanese, everything, and the Ford/Japanese cars were the most trouble. I
simply said that the Mystique/Contour twins are the ONLY Ford product I have liked, and
it's the ONLY American car that can even come CLOSE to the ride/handling balance of my
mom's 540, and it's still way off..but like I said, it's the CLOSEST that America has ever
been to BMW.

I think the ConTique interiors are rather cheap looking too. Too much plastic. The plastic
isnt of very high quality, neither. The interior of my moms BMW is perfect though

My
moms 540i has the auto-up/auto down for all windows, I love it, just and all the windows
go down. It also has, where if you put the key in the door and turn it the opposite
direction, all the windows lower and the moonroof opens. That's such a sweet car

actually, theres not much that separates the 'Stique from my moms 540, except size,
power, SLIGHTLY better handling, (much better ride tho) and its queieter, MUCH quieter.
(Although I dont like the power locks on her BMW...that switch in the console confuses me).
Yeah, the BMW is a better car, for for nearly 60K, it SHOULD be.
Nice price drop on that last one. This is just a few that I found in just a couple searches.

So, to answer your question. Nope. Guess not.
