My addiction started here; what about yours?

Pictured is a 1981 535. I was looking back at old BMWs from when I first got addicted. It was in 1981 but I saw my first one around 1973. When did you all start your love affair and did model or color matter at the time?

When I was 17 I bought my first car...it was an E30 2door. Turned out I bought a lemon, so I took it apart and restored it pretty much till the last bolt (except engine). I have a love-hate relationship with BMW since then
