      Very nice, Klaus.

      Mrs. George had a 2011 328i X-drive. She didn't care for it because the suspension and steering were too stiff for her taste. I didn't mind it at all, LOL.

      I like the extendable thigh support in the driver's seat, by the way.

      The 5 series cars are less stiff than the 3 series cars. I considered a 3 series car at first, but I also like some comfort more. Also, as used cars, the 5 series cars are better value for the money (i.e., they drop in price quicker).

      And the 7 & 8 series ride like on a cloud.

        I’m waiting for the boy to take my car to college. Then I’m getting something fun with two seats.

                              So there is a myth that BMW drivers are nearly as bad as Jaguar drivers. Any truth to that, @Klaus ?

                                It's always good to see someone buy domestic.

                                  I guess so.

                                  Over here there's a saying that "right of way" is a frequently requested extra you can buy for your BMW.
