How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

First was a cirrus blue 320i chromie, C reg, 2 door.
Then the 325i, E reg, 2 door, diamond black, cream leather, air con, 16" azevs - was one of my fav's!! Guy i sold it to had it two years, I agreed to buy it back and he wrote it off a week before i was gonna pick it up!!!
Then an Alpine white 318i, 2 door.
Then i lose the order a bit - a black 318i 2 dr, a white 318i M10 auto 4 dr, a red 327 touring, a black 318i 4 dr that i drove about 5 times and realised it was a breaker!! (does that one count?).
Currently got a black 327 touring and a red 318i auto cabriolet!!!

That's 9, but i'm sure i'm missing one or two!!! And there will be more, no doubt!!!
327 Touring with bass!!!
