Thanks

Thanks for the info.

Not that I am against more power or better technology, it just would really suck to wait 2 years for the E55 and then have it be outdated in 1 year.

Anything you buy these days with as much technology as an E55 is outdated the moment it rolls out the door. Buy one, drive it, have fun. Life's not about waiting.

If I was getting younger, I probably would not have bought this car.

By the time you die, it only costs a few grand more to go first class.

How does one go about "getting younger"?

Jerry Lee Lewis, Michael Jackson and Joan Rivers each have their own theories. Some legal, some not.

I also read that some minor league ballpark is having fun with the Ted Williams situation. They're having a Ted Williams Day in which they're giving away popsickles as a promo. (Ted's son has had Dad frozen so he can be revived at some time in the future).
