I argue they are nicer cars but if you are very concerned about cost of ownership and the BMW "experience" doesn't have you super excited about a higher cost of a vehicle then you should probably stick to Acura. Taking it further, if cost of ownership is a big concern then you should stick with Honda because a fully loaded Honda is a good car and very practical and you will save a lot of money. A BMW will get you excited every time you get in the car and step on the gas. A Honda will get you where you need to go comfortably and afford-ably.

What do they say about yacht ownership, if you have to ask how much it'll cost it's too expensive? I would say of owning a BMW, if you want to save money, then it's the wrong brand to own.
