'I don't buy your arguement.'

That's fine - it's not my argument, it's a German one.

Your thinking behind four-doors is how most people in England thank about automatic gearboxes. There is no such thing as an automatic sportscar. Here autos are for fat busniessmen and women who can't work a clutch! :D

This was from an old law that prevented hookers from going down to the docks to score longshoremen, but it's a law that does need to be updated because not everybody who buys a car abroad is a man.

And nowadays, not everyone going down to the docks to "score longshoremen" is a woman either...

There's a stationwagon M5, too.

I didn't know that.

Are you sure it's just not a stationwagon with an M sport package?

"I wanted to stop en route to let my wife could experience Federweisser"

That's a myth.

"Neckar river: Bad Wimpfen"

I lived 1969-1970 in nearby Heilbronn. US Army, but lived on local economy. That's a good part.

More good parts. Got to drive all over Europe with our US spec new European car.

Due to my enlisted pay grade, Fiat was the car. Bad part, needing no further explanation.

I may due the Euro Delivery thing. Have owned 3 BMWs and lean that way, Audi being next, followed by Volvo.

Volvo offers best travel allowance, puts me in Sweden, land of some ancestors.

BMW or Audi are the very best driver's cars, however. Plus I could drive all the way to Sweden!!

Auf Wiedersehn.

because not everybody who buys a car abroad is a man.

But it is mostly men who buy a car for a broad!
