Some people are more concerned about the environment than looking like a big shot.

Are you attacking me or Luddite? He has had some very nice cars that
were much better than my Z4 and ML550.

True, I went through a phase of having some high performance cars but
they aren't very practical unless you have a race track in your back
yard. I am also at least 10 years older now and don't have the need
for speed or neck snapping acceleration.

I know what you mean, I got that put of my system in the Nixon
administration. (a competitive "street stock" drag racer, then a
Corvette) I still like zippy little cars but my old Honda Prelude is
plenty for me and it is good on gas.

If someone gave me a Z3, I'd take it. But I'm not wild about the styling of the Z4.
Maybe I'm just a 'softy'.

Which year? They have changed a lot. It's the wife's car, anyway. I
wanted her to get the SL550. It's larger and safer, IMO.

I don't know which year. Did the Z3 undergo significant design changes during its production? I'll admit that I'd take the SL550, or even the SL400 if offered.

I was referring to the Z4. It was a rag top and now a retractable
hardtop (interesting engineering!).

You wouldn't fit well in any of them. They are all very small cars.
I'm 6'4" and avoid driving that car whenever possible. It's not only
small inside, it's LOW.

****. Here I thought the BMW's might have a lot more leg room than the Boxster or
Miata. So far, that Karman Ghia I had in Germany wins in the leg room contest. Even
my wife's Jetta has a lot of leg room, although it is low also. I used to be 6'4",
but now have to stretch to get to 6'3".

I am a midget at 6'2 but I am OK in my Honda Prelude.

Krause is shrinking faster than you are. He is barely 6ft
nowadays, thanks to his osteopenia which has most likely
progressed to osteoporosis.
God help the poor little fella.??

Wonder if he uses blocks under his folding desk chair.

[Harry - please - no pictures of your desk chair!]
