I thought long and hard about the question in this post. If you count out the cars I've used as DD's at one time or another (I had only one of those that was a HUGE regret), I would have to say my previous 2012 135i. I kept lying to myself the entire time I owned it. Telling myself I loved the car, but the truth is I never connected with it (as others have said about their most regretted). In retrospect, it didn't handle well at all in the real world. The ride was too harsh despite replacing the springs with progressive rates (shocks wouldn't have helped) and non-RFT's (MPSS). The word "Boo" would cause the back end to show instability at almost any speed. Bone stock and, then, with PPK1, way too much power for that chassis. I even noticed that it wasn't as stable at high speed (140 MPH+) as I felt it should've been. I never really walked out of my house/work/etc., looked at the car, and thought "Damn, that car is MINE".
