is it ok for me to bring an old thread back to life?

2004 TL SSM
Great car. Loved every aspect of the car especially when it was modded. Car gave a lot of problems but still loved it. I ended up trading it in for something i never thought I would have.....

2005 RL LSM

words cannot express this car. At first it was soo boring to me and got the "wtf u doing in an old mans car" the car is great around twisties, more refine and luxurious ride. Don't think about letting this car go anytime soon.

- as an add-on to my post above, its fun to compare my big bimmer to my wife's RL; the drive on the bimmer is some better (power & yes, handling); comfort for front seat about equal; back seat definitely goes to the BMW; gas mileage, about the same; nav system goes to the RL; upkeep - hah! its a BMW vs an Acura.

I bought the BMW new; the Acura used with 4k on it. No comparison on price paid is necessary.

I love both cars. BMW has 74K miles on it, RL has 37K. I keep both completely maintained, even to the rev. levels on the Nav systems.
