Replying to: dewey (Apr 11, 2008 7:40 am) My familia owned a condo in Boca Raton for about 25 years. Nice neighborhood. If I was looking for the snowbird home, I think I'd look in the Boca/Pompano/Delray area. But, that's the only area I even know a little, but it's nice... |

Replying to: laurasdada (Apr 11, 2008 7:32 am) I thought the same thing when the RL was released. It's not faster, or more spacious, or better handling, or really any nicer on the inside than the TL. I hated the RL's center stack controls then and still do. The control knob thing just doesn't work for Acura. It's in the wrong place, its hideous, and there seems to be more buttons in Acura interiors than ever before, so it clearly hasn't simplified anything.

Replying to: hpowders (Apr 11, 2008 8:04 am) It is nice to read about your `doings`, and we have missed you....Yes bmw is arrogant, but not as much as Mercedes...I swear they are the worse...I wish Merc1 was still posting here, as he really knew Mercedes, and was a lively soul....On my front--as you can see- I am trying to improve my Spanish, and Jose is going to help..  I sort of thought you were laying low, so as not to give your hand away, and make the best deal of the new car` to be`...How are your thoughts coming along? Tony

Replying to: 2001gs430 (Apr 11, 2008 7:24 am) You should have a fine time picking a spot out, as there are so many different places....The best ones have Spanish names although I picked Miami...The reason we did was we wanted to experience a big city...and it is stimulating...What is best is the people...They are from all over the world, and I like all I have met...Good luck on your search (dream) and unlike Dewey I like to own a place and get immersed in the culture with the people....So far in life that has worked for me, but I have many friends just like Dewey, and they travel the world...Tony

Replying to: anthonyp (Apr 11, 2008 1:12 pm) Everything is fine here in the great state of Florida. Just another warm, sunny day, high around 86 degrees. I'll try to survive.  I'm currently thinking a BMW 1 Series Coupe may be the perfect antidote to my 545i. As breathtaking as the 4.4 liter 325 horsepower 32 valve V-8 engine with 4 overhead camshafts and of course, steplessly variable air intake manifold is, I do miss the handling of a smaller vehicle. The 545i simply isn't as tossable as a 3 Series. I would imagine the 1 Series Coupes should present quite a bit of exhilaration, although not as great a differential in handling from the 3 Series to the 1 Series as from the 5 Series to the 3. BMW has simply made the 1 Series too darn heavy for its size! In the Walmart Super Center parking lot, my wife after enduring my 6 minute search for the perfect parking spot, exclaimed "Why don't you just get a smaller car?" (As if the size of the vehicle had anything to do with my meticulousness!) (Why can some women be so clueless?) I will let you know what I finally decide on. I still have until the end of July. I hope you continue to find the North Carolina hills a pleasant place to reside.
