Ch 94 Sonorous                                                             BMW sports car                                 

BMW Z4  "One punch of the throttle tells you the larger 3.0L version of BMW's stellar inline-6 is a masterpiece: sultry, sinewy, sonorous," http://www.bmwworld.com/models/z4/engines.htm

 

Don’t want to dwell too much on the mechanicals, but my company is trying to get back on my good side by sponsoring my test drive of the great white ultimate driving machine ($46K with Premium Pkg including fully automatic power soft top) back from Freeport, Long Island. Train down- conductor still advises no pix. Still warm enough for top down cruise at Oceanside. The client just had to have it ASAP. She had moved up from Mitsubitshi Stealth, and prior Z3. Even with the too harsh suspension settings (like the new 2006 civics), this was one of the more enjoyable swaps avoiding the Interstates on drive home. I’d like to increase the percentage of this type of work.

 

Sucked down the excellent Lobster Bisque at one of Cary Grant’s old hangouts as the Nassau Police pulled up to dockside. can’t shake em. Have ruffled a few feathers on my travels around the State in years past. This was same restaurant I went to in 1972 when I started at DEC doing a wastewater treatment plant manpower study all across the state. http://www.theschooner.com/articles/
