RE: Bimmer boy crashes the guestbook at Audi-S-Cars

Anybody can stick a big motor in a car and call it a sports car.  The
Americans do it all the time.

I wouldn't be caught dead in a Bimmer (unless it was the time my uncle let
me drive his).  I certainly wouldn't waste good money on one.  People might
think I'm just like this squirt!
