I too have these delusions of grandeur as I travel down the highways and byways of life. Sometimes I am rewarded just after a nice cool shower, when the windows are down - the air is off - nad all seems to be right in the midst of the bowels of the wonderous B230F that I hear singing under the bonnett of my 745T. The long grade comes up, and I pass all that I can - as the turbo does what it is best at.

I think, and wonder - how must it have been when the motor was new. As for now - I will be content with a car that has 170K+, is well built & tight, and runs really good.

Will it take on most of the new rice rockets? Probably not - but then again - I will be driving this when the RR turns to junk.

Pardon mw while I daydream!
