I'm partial to this -

NM LIMITED-EDITION 2009 BMW INDIVIDUAL 7 SERIES SEDAN: $160,000

The all-new BMW 7 Series has an '09 launch date, but to commemorate 31 years of the BMW 7 Series in the USA, we've got just 31 limited-edition 2009 BMW Individual 7 Series Sedans available for purchase. The inside is furnished with our exquisite BMW Individual Champagne Merino full leather and Alcantara(R) headliner. The outside finish: our exclusive, 31-autos-only iridescent Diopside Black and illuminated Neiman Marcus entry sills. Also part of the package is a once-in-a-lifetime European adventure. Our exclusive trip includes two business-class tickets on Lufthansa(R) from New York, gourmet meals, luxury hotel for four nights including Munich and the French Riviera, and rare insider access to BMW. The adventure is scheduled for April 2009.

Unfortunately, I'm stuck with the perverse incurable disease that I can ONLY buy an american made car (yes, I'm from Detroit). So I guess it's me and Chevy forever...

I had a beamer once - - a 12 year old used one. When I lived in Germany...

Actually, the price is reasonable.

I like the Hammecher Schlemmer whatever catalog too. This year's mahogany remote controlled boat is to die for!!!
