Replying to: 2001gs430 (Oct 05, 2008 3:40 am)  I hope they come up with a different system so people could trade if they wanted....Alot of people that had children in the house want to downsize, but can`t because of this system they have in place.....Miami is a fun place, but the public servants are hard as nails---a nice soft comfy surface, but every trick in the world must have started down there or N Y.....Tony

Replying to: m4d_cow (Oct 05, 2008 6:43 am) I dropped by the Audi dealer recently and sat in the new A4 for a minute. I believe it was a 3.2, but I'm not positive. The interior was tan, and it felt warmer and more inviting than a 3 or C class. Because there's a lot more black plastic than before though, it does seem colder in gray and especially in black. One thing that surprised me was that the seat wasn't all that comfortable. It was hard and the headrest felt like a rock. I still think the S4 is going to be awesome, but I wasn't blown away by the standard car. |

but this might cheer you up. There are some real bargains to be had in Luxo Land. According to Edmunds, for roughly 40K you could buy yourself a 2006 S500 or a 750il of your choice. If 40K is too much for you in today's economy, for less the 30K you could buy a 2006 E350. Gee. thats the price of a decent pickup! For the patient consumer, living in a throw-away culture is a pleasure! |

Replying to: laurasdada (Oct 03, 2008 8:41 am) I saw my first "regular" ol' Bentley Continental the other day. Usually I spot a few Continental GTs, but when I saw those extra doors, I had to do a double take!

Replying to: bmlexus (Oct 03, 2008 2:17 pm) Probably because it's more believable, Nissan!  Latest word on the street is that the GT-R that set that 7:29 time was actually the Spec V car. So much for the GT-R fanboys saying how the Spec V will be released and cream the ZR1, et. al.!

Replying to: tayl0rd (Oct 06, 2008 6:50 am) The dollar has been gaining against the euro?? There's a shocker, especially considering the beating our economy is taking right now! It may seem strange but the dollar has actually gained almost 15% from earlier this year when it was almost $1.60 to 1, it is around $1.36 to 1 now. This will cause earnings of U.S. based multinational companies to suffer a bit moving forward as comparisons will have a tougher baseline. But it will take some of the recent pressure off European companies that did business in the U.S. and were facing profit declines to to currency exchange. Overall a stronger dollar is only one small step in the right direction for our economy. The best thing that can happen is for jobs to stabilize so workers at all ends of the economic spectrum can feel better about the future for their families.

Replying to: clembo (Oct 06, 2008 8:45 am) Kidding aside, I also think the strong USD should immediately help the US spending less on oil, leaving more money for other stuffs.

Replying to: laurasdada (Oct 06, 2008 8:30 am) This craziness could now be a good thing known as market capitulation. A market bottom is necessary to start moving forward again. Hopefully, this will be the market bottom, or at least part of the formation of one. But, it is extremely painful, and in a few years from now, we will likely be ahead again. So, I'm going to ride it out and hang in there! IMO, better times lie ahead. TM
