I made comments about the BMW series being too similar and recent Roundel magazine published a comment by BMW that they will try to make each series more distinctive....somehow voices are heard.

Yeah, a lot of problems with that N54 I6 Twin Turbo engine. But wow, 1 month, that's really disappointing to hear. I have a similar car, but with the N62 engine (4.4 liter V8), and it's a great engine except it leaks oil. Do you work in high tech? Seattle...

Ahh, Portland. I've never been there. I'm from the San Francisco/Silicon Valley area. I find that I don't need exclusivity in my cars. To attract attention with the car for me is not a good thing since I often park the car in San Francisco (a city notorio...

Premiums are slowly going down
