Because they have this magnificent luxury car, but deep inside they know that it's really a piece of crap and they've bought into the whole company line.  They're compensating so *you'll* think they have a magnificent luxury car as well.  Quite sad, actually.... [/b]

Markie may disagree, but when I was in old blighty I remember "bimmers" as we called them, as the peice of shit german luxury car. Audi was the one with the highest status, and MB just grandads car.
 
 Maybe they just have a better ad agency in doodleville.

Haven´t been in the US for a long time, can´t follow that closely the polls, but if that is the case, then I would change from mad to sad.

Probably more like 13%...remember, it's the corporate media spewing out the numbers.
 
 Seriously, if Bush wins after what he's done the last four years, then you doodles deserve all you get.
 
 Who was it who said,
 
 "People get the government they deserve"

You are right about 1 at least thing.......
 
 MB is grandads car, but they have done a lot to shed that image recently, entering F1 and the not for North America A-class. But still if the c-class can get you pulse racing, you probably are over the age of 60.
 
 Audi in the early 80's was a disaster that has slowly pulled itself up, it still does not have the cache of the other two, which can be seen in the poorer resale values of the A8. Still interestingly they are switching from turbo to normally aspirated engines to try and compete head on with
 
 BMW  Whilst there have been some shite cars, the flat six engines have been remarkably fantastic. I think the current 7-series looks amazing. Give me an M3 over anything else.

Watching chicken shit nations follow America into Iraq like a lost puppy dog...didn't see America follow them into N. Ireland or the Falkland Islands did we?

The 7 series might be okay once they get the trunk to close properly..or at least look like it does. Also, tech's love the 7 series because it's making them all rich.
 
 I would take an Audi over a bimmer any day, but that's just me.

NOPE!
 
 If you open the trunk and look at the lines without that 7 series trunk thing, then the car is georgous. With the trunk closed it may as well be a Saab. I drove one and was not all that impressed to be honest, but I am used to driving Ferraris and Massers so I'm spoiled.

I think it is cool looking, it is impossible to mistake it for much else.... I thought with the trunk up it looked just like a 911.
 
 Nice to be spoiled like that.
 
 Are we getting the Bimmer 1-series here?
