Replying to: bmlexus (May 08, 2008 9:42 am) That all depends on what you are looking for in a luxury car and what your priorities are. Is the 5 the highest performance luxury car in its class? Yes. Is it the most luxurious car in its class? No. If you value performance and handling above all else and are looking for something in the mid-lux range, the 5 is your car. If, on the other hand you're looking for a more balanced package, consider the A6, M, or XF (my favorites).

Replying to: jlbl (May 08, 2008 8:26 am) Those cars were for an era long gone--such dignity--I keep reading about the housed being torn down even after a person has owned them for thirty years....Just what does socialism mean in Spain?? I can understand re claiming something that is recently built, and even something that is say five years old, but after thirty years seems like some sort of possession (adverse) would kick in....Strange even with a permit?

Replying to: tx_buzzard (May 08, 2008 11:24 am) LOL.. I know you are a good sport and have a good sense of humor, so I realized there was no risk by having some fun with you. Thanks for proving this to be true. It would be an interesting lifestyle to be able to collect cars, that's for sure. But even if I ever was in a position to do that, I'd have to keep the cars for a long time, and God knows I'd have a hard time doing THAT!... Take care. TM

Replying to: anthonyp (May 08, 2008 1:00 pm) …Just what does socialism mean in Spain? Mmm, less than in Scandinavia and about the same as UK Labour Party in Britain (may be 0.5ºC more); there is no collectivism over here I keep reading about the housed being torn down even after a person has owned them for thirty years It is not only the Spanish Government acting by itself but also under the pressure of European Parliament Bills and European Gov. Decrees to protect the littoral from speculative/excessive building. But I do not know of any private house being torn down after being lived for so many years (or after much lesser time) though I can be ignorant of it. There is a massive hotel which never was inhabited that after so many years of litigation has eventually been torn down. Send me a note with the news or the source to jlbl  carspace.com and I'll try to get more information, if you wish me to do so. Regards, Jose |

Replying to: louiswei (May 07, 2008 7:04 am) The A4 3.2 was meant to compete with the Euro-spec BMW 330i. Yes, they still sell it there. I don't particularly care for the 3.2L engine either but it does have a purpose. I just don't understand why they haven't gone the BMW route and given the US-spec A4 a more powerful engine as standard; this is more true than ever with the torquey, lightweight 2.0T, upcoming 3.0S S4 and the possible A4 3.0TDI.
