The 695 is out then, I have to have a manual manual...
The extra 10 ponies would be nice, but the paddle shifter is just not what I want
Too bad, but oh well, I'm sure not getting a 695 just save me a truck load of money

I have eyes for no other car It was a really good decision getting the S out today
Tom has been sick the last week but apparently is feeling better. He asked if we could drive to Poughkeepsie (about 45 minutes away) to get beer tonight...
Sure - long as we can take the blue car
^^ I absolute HATE the new "wink"
