Locate an Auto Repair Shop in Hana, Hawaii

So I go to run out to pick-up dinner tonight (Sushi & Chinese Food). I figured it is a good trip to take the E30. WRONG! It wouldn't start! It fired right up when I took it out Wednesday night. I wonder if it had anything to do with the HEAVY rainfall we received courtesy of Tropical Storm Hana last night. Good thing the X3's key is on the same ring as my E30's. It gave me an excuse to drive my wife's X3 :P

And how about Hawaii, ....... I predict they will be using Lava powered cars and trucks in the not to distant future. Oh Hawaii isn't that big, plus its broken down into many smaller pieces (islands) so they can ride bikes everywhere. Heck I have driven the road to Hana a bike might just be faster.

Hi Tony. Was that you? Hope my chewin' tobacky didn't make a stain! ;) As for the Bangle 5 Series, seems everyone else is copying it. No coincidence that the side and rear of the new Honda Accord resemble it. I agree with you. Most of my driving these days is also around town or long highway stints-very few bobsled routes. When I really need the 545i, like in Hana, Hawaii, I don't have it! :( I have to face the fact that with the 545i and with any BMW, for that matter, I simply will never truly get my money's worth. I have been thrilled by the 545i's performance, especially recently, when I have been trying some very aggressive moves. However, since the more you throw at it, the better it gets, I will never know the true potential of this vehicle. I've reached the point where I can go no further even though the vehicle practically begs me to. What I have achieved with this vehicle nevertheless, has been thrilling. I am prepared to call this vehicle a masterpiece, considering its handling prowess relative to its size. I have come to the reality that my next vehicle will most likely be a bit more conservative. I have achieved all I can achieve with BMW vehicles. There are no good deals on BMW wagons for leasing. They want to sell them. They don't want them back in 2-3 years since there isn't a big market for them. However, one can probably negotiate a big discount from MSRP for purchase. I have to say, Tony, I have been noticing more and more wagons on the highway lately. People are finally smartening up. Not that much "S" in SUVs. Folks who purchase a Cayenne and think they are driving a genuine Porsche usually have no idea! (unless it's their second Porsche). A BMW 535xi wagon will run rings around any BMW X5.

You have that right! Heh! Heh! Hana with my wife is out of the question. I found that out last year. We made it half-way last year when she insisted we turn around. :( As a matter of fact we have friends and family who have complained to my wife (never to me) about my "aggressive" driving and refuse to ride in my car. Meanwhile, one of the folks who complained drives so darn slow, I refuse to ever get in his car! :) Lots of laughs all around! PS: If I can't drive, I don't want to go! ;)

Sure wish I had the 545i on the road to Hana last year. That would have been unforgettable! Yes... you would never forget your wife puking in the seat next to you after screaming and pleading with you to take it easy, and then ultimately depriving you of rum cake for at least several months! TagMan
