Brutal is exactly the word I was thinking. Good gracious that car is awesome-looking.

Maybe it's people researching to find out how to fix their cars.

Pontiacs - break all the time, but are often owned by people who might do their own work

Buicks - geriatric owners take them to the dealership or local garage to have someone else do the work

I like the wood inlays a lot, and there seems to be a lot of 5-series in the profile. The tails protrude from the rear of the car a bit, don't they? Stylish, very European. Altogether, a pretty good-looking car.

Clever.

True, there is a monthly fee for the phone/data service, but if you've purchased an Android phone, you're paying that already even if you don't use Navigation. The "steal" savings part is the not having to pony up ANOTHER $150 for a different device.

Unless you're one of those guys without a cell phone, or need for one, in which case it's probably better just to get a navigation system for a one-time fee.

In all honesty, this makes the Android handsets a steal. Looking for do-it-most smart phone + navigation system? Save $150 by buying an Android handset from your provider of choice for $150.

I have a '98 E320 Wagon with the jump seats. Totally awesome ride, so much space!

I came. I saw. I came again.

Barf. Excuse me while I go puke my guts out whilst sobbing uncontrollably at the loss of such a lovely piece of automotive history.

Just go over there and knock on the door. He's there quite often, and he's a nice enough man that he might give you a tour.

It's a big warehouse right across the street from the entrance to the Burbank (Bob Hope) Airport. Look for the building with the vertical wind turbine on top.
