fairly optional I imagine. there are probably a lot more e23s sporting that feature than e30s

It's huge, and it's heavy, and while wears that weight quite well it's about 300 pounds heavier than my 330ci which is not a light car.

public debt accumulated while the economy was expanding is very much a part of the crisis. an unsustainable debt burden is that much worse, when the economy is contracting. the olympics appears on principle to be about 3-4% of the outstanding public debt, probably more once you account for secondary developments like…
