Apple is almost a month old....

After reading all the negative reviews lately, I must say buying Apple was one of the best decisions i have ever made,

MPG is Amazing 40.1 the best so far.
I love the navi happy i got it
It handles so well

of all my 61 cars, 61 is the best by far for the things I need at this time.

I have had Zero rattles and no noises.
Very Happy will buy another

The AC is great since i left out the sunroof and have been having 95 degree days

And this is the best car forum around

61 cars... I've had one, not including the MINI coming up. My high school dream... ah, good days!

You are right 100% this is the finest automotive forum around. Everyone is mostly courteous and helpful. I hate the old Mazda forums. Yuck.

Man, I guess the saying "been around the block a few times" is your personal mantra.

So you're pushing 50. Let's say you've been owing cars since you were 16 years old. That's 34 years of car ownership. You're buying a car every 6.6 months, or nearly 2 every year.

Have you seen a therapist ?

Perhaps CR&PW&JB is looking for the name of a good one, maybe you should PM him with some recommendations.

I cant wait to here your opinions about the R8, I've been on the Audi/VW forums for years now, I'm on my 4th VAG car, a 2004 allroad ( still cant find a better all around family car out there) its only my second Audi though.

I always take what I read on forums with a grain of salt, seams like its all to often a place for people to grumble and complain. Most reviews I've read on the gen 2 MC have been pretty good.

You may not be looking, just giving you the push you might need.
