Nice.

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

Droptop?

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 wasn't so crude as to say that.

But, I was crude enough to think it.

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.

Loyalty is good.

I guess so.

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

@Klaus When I was younger BMW was considered a car for pimps.
