Comfortable, solid, responsive, pretty. Am willing to take side roads to avoid stalled traffic. old iMac. Have you driven a BWM? NICE car, very comfortable, solid, effortless to drive, great to look at -- am hopeful to hear about stalled traffic so I might go 90 miles out of my way toward my destination -- and when I arrive, I'm not sure I want to get out of the car. new iMac.
