3) $55k - $70k for two seats;
4) $55k - $70k for two seats in a soft economy
. . . . . .

it is just pricey and not practical with the "new" economy. for goodness sake, you can buy a nice X5 35D for that price . . . so when you are at a BMW dealer it is really hard to justify the purchase when a nice 5 series or X5 can be had for the same price.

this is our third car . . . we call it our date car and not too many people have that option - hell, even we probably should not have done it but the ED was incredible
