    “I drive a reasonable car bought new, as I don’t believe in buying used vehicles. The BMW will have to come later once I am grounded in my career and the economy recovers.”

    You don’t want to get a BMW. I have owned a new 750il, new big Mercedes and finally a Lexus LS 400 bought new in 2000. I am going to drive this Lexus until the wheels fall off. It is the best car I have ever had. Absolutely no problems or issues with it at all. Plus no governor on it and it WILL go 155.

    German cars drive better but are problematic and the dealers don’t have the same customer service as the Lexus dealerships do.

    I have always run cars into the ground. I think I was Inspector 12 in a previous life. Put my way through school driving beaters. Gave myself my first new car when interest rates were the highest in history. Bought first house, second house driving old cars into the ground.

    Two years ago bought my Audi TT and LOVE it. Handles great. Customer service is tops.

    Hi, John. Thanks for that information. I was just thinking out loud, I haven’t even researched the BMW. I certainly don’t want an expensive car with a lot of expensive problems. I have heard the Lexus was a very good car. I like anything made by Toyota. I’d like to get something environmentally friendly that gets good gas mileage, so I really don’t know what I’ll end up with for my next car.

    John, was the xx meant to delete a post, or to indicate your gender? Most people named John are in fact XY ( I know ’cause I’m one of ’em!)

    And yes jpinpb, until the divorce thread I too thought you were male. Your offer to bring sunscreen to my pool party just became a lot more interesting.

    I am also beginning to think there are far more females on this forum than I initially thought.
