Depends on you, I think...
I'd stick with the Fronty myself, but if in your heart you want to get back into a BMW, nothing we can say will convince you otherwise.

It aint a BMW...its 2 cylinders short of a BMW...
You made the right call.
Besides...wait till it snows....wait on a steep hill, and I bet a stranded motorist would swap you a much better bimmer for your fronty then!
