Test Drive

Yesterday Hubby and I took the car to the Classic BMW dealership to check out the new models and talk about buying at the end of the lease. The dealership isn't new but it is a new location with a snazzy new building. Big change from the old one on US75 in Richardson. Lots of glass and chrome in which to showcase the shiny 2008 models. Hubby and I got wacky and, on a whim, took a new X3 model for a spin. Wow, great ride for a small SUV. It felt like I was driving a car, although Hubby insists that it doesn't hug the curves as much as the 325 but I didn't think it was that bad. My only complaint was that the bumps on the road were more pronounced than in the car, but this could have something to do with the X3 being higher. Think we're going to keep our lovely, little 325 and buy it at the end of the lease. I want to keep it until it's a vintage car and has tons of character, much like the old porsche David Duchovny's character drives in 'Californication'.
