2K a year for Roadtax & Insurance together? Well i'm not going to be light footed all the time, the car is a beast, will speed at times also. Im currently driving a Satria, this will remain as my work car & the BMW will be my weekend/travelling car.

How much would it cost for a full tank and how far can I go on average? What do I need to change from time to time and how much would it cost? How is the wear n tear of the car like? From what I heard the air cond compressor costs a bomb. I would appreciate if you guys could include the price as well.

I know the Civic, Lancer, RX-8, BMW dont fit in the same category, but its in my list as price range is about the same. I love the BMW the most as its comfy, powerful, and looks awesome.
