That this '08 XK Coupe w/6266 miles and an asking price of $60k is a better deal than an '05 XLR with a loose fender at $35k?

I'm saying a good deal on an XK is smarter than almost any deal on an XLR. Yes.
 
BTW, those cars are amazing. Thanks for posting them.

BIG,
Yes, indeed, this is actually a good time to sell my Porsche. If I want another one in the future, I will get one, but I have changed my priorities and market conditions point to selling it now, particularly before the '09 becomes readily available, and certainly before the market for used Porsches softens too much. And, it will soften. Thank goodness that mine is a 997, a strong reseller.
 
Low miles, and originally configured by Porsche especially for the SF auto show... it should sell easily, but I'm going to hold out for a decent price. The car is too perfect to let go too cheaply, and I'm not in an urgent situation that requires me to sell too quickly. I'll make a fair deal with someone. Whoever gets it will get a gem.
 
I'm not suggesting that the 135i is in the same league as the Porsche. I am suggesting, however, that for a lot less money, a damned lot of fun can be had in the 135i convertible... Almost as much as the 911. So... I feel fine saying goodbye to the 911. I'll use all that money on something else, like a car for my wife and/or a car for my daughter next year. And Ther's going to be that future hybrid I intend to drive.
 
I fully intend to not buy a gas hog ever again, and I look forward to driving a fuel-sipping hybrid from Honda... or even Toyota, if it doesn't look as horrible as the current Prius.

I apologize, Lou, cause I have absolutely no idea what you are posting about. I just don't get your point.
 
Must be too much sun and beer earlier today.

Speaking of the 135i convertible, Edmunds has just posted their full test.
 
What Needs Work:
Um, nothing.
 
I'm not positive, but I don't think Edmunds has ever put "none" for needed improvements before.

Thanks, LG, for that link to Edmunds review of the 135i convertible.
 
What a phenomenal write-up!
 
It's been difficult for me to reveal the amazing character and nature of the 135i convertible without sounding like a biased owner. The car is so terrific that it is all too easy to be perceived as an infatuated owner.
 
The 135i is indeed a true-life automotive marvel, and I can only pass this on to others. I feel extremely lucky to have one custom-configured to my preferences. I unequivocally love the 135i convertible for being one of the most enjoyable cars I've ever driven
 
Anyway, LG, thanks again.

But, OW, did you crop out the XLR?

 
Darned! You noticed! Get that thing out of your head!

I am not sure why this is seem to be an issue. When I say the 1 series is cute, I meant it in a good way
I do see a lot of women driving the IS250 around here, cant say the same about the 1 since I only saw one so far and it was a guy behind the wheel...
My (evil) wife also like my IS350, not so much for its styling, but mainly for the way it drives. She took the car for a spin a couple of months ago, and came back with a big smile on her face. She kept on saying what a mean machine it was...
