That's a drag. I'm so thoroughly disgusted by the new designs, I'd find some way to keep the E39. Hell, I'd take a long look at the new A4 / S4 before considering the new 3.

... P.S. Dave I have a serious boner for the SRT, but the fuel economy thing makes me go flaccid all the same. Please tell me it takes 89 octane.
Sorry to piss on your fireworks.. but the SRT8 requires 91 octane or better.
Heaven -- and ANWR -- help us. :run:
