i still don't completely get the point of a 4 door w/ "hatch". why not just make it a wagon and at least get some real added utility. i don't see any particular advantage to these types compared to a standard 4 door. the additional luggage room is marginal to me and you still can't put a dog in the back.

then again, i'm the type that WOULD buy an M5 estate if they brought the damn thing over here.

Red 944 heading southbound on 270 near rockville around 7:30 this evening. Advice - really should have some headlights on when its getting dark so others can see you.

Wiring harness probably burned up or the grounds are corroded.
