RE: price difference between cars in America and those in the fatherland

There is always factory delivery, which is what I'm planning on when
the 325e comes out. (bank balance willing...ha!) You can save big bucks
this way.

Rust? what is this 'rust'? After seven winters in the great state of
Illinois (got your salt tires mounted yet?) I pulled the door panels
off my 320i and could find no trace of rust what-so-ever in the doors.
(usually a prime rust area) There are only a couple of very minor rust
spots anywhere on the body at all. Very impressive considering the
wonderful conditions here.

Rust? that is only seen on american cars more than 6 months old.

German cars are *less* expensive *in the long run*, providing you
can come up with the initial price.

Oh yes, Sears charges much too much for SAE wrenches.
