I don't drive my 86 Corvette anymore, and it's too expensive to repair when something goes wrong (and Corvettes always go wrong) so I'm thinking of an Audi. Nice looking car, and a strong engine. I'd like one of the new Mini's, but the local dealer here has one that's been in his lot over a year and won't deal on it so I'm going elsewhere.
I need to get rid of my Xterra too. I no longer need a 4x4 and the Xterra only gets 15mpg so it's got to go. Between the Corvette sale, the [probable] Xterra trade-in, and the $6 or 7 thousand from the aborted Luger carbine commission, I should be able to get a decent 'sporty' car.
I'm sure that Ed's son will be surprised and delighted to finally receive a Luger carbine from Eugene. It's just a shame that Ed [and I] will never see it...  |
Try a BMW Z4 , I love mine.
Do not spend all the money in one place, carbine is comming.
