o ok. i thought that bmw of america wasn't going to offer a 6spd. or i heard or read that somewhere. and 70K is almost affordable! in 8 years!

right now the current frontrunner for my next new car is the 05 subaru legacy, but the new 3.2 TL is comin on strong with 6spds and an LSD...now if only acura made that thing AWD, it'd be no contest...

anyway, back on topic:

**** mercedes.
