new model cls 63??????????
weh dem boys getting all this money from?????

Like I said earlier in this thread.
With the economy the way that it is, people don't see/have the need to invest heavily in their businesses...simply because there's no need to.
This leaves a lot of businessmen with "disposable income"

Hence the increase in luxury/exotic cars even though it may seem like the wrong time to be buying them.

ok, but how smart a decision is that? Cars tend to be the second largest, and worst investment we make in our lives, simply because of depreciation. And the local car scene is too young, and unsophisticated to realise any benefits as seen in other countries. For instance a Ferrari immediately appreciates in value upon delivery because the waiting list/time is long, so a customer wanting one immediately will pay a premium. I highly doubt that ANY trini thinks this way... they'll either wait, for buy a used one.

When things do turn around, it'll be interesting to see where business funding comes from. To me thinking/actions like this, on a global scale, are part of the cause of cyclical financial meltdowns. Sad part is the poor people suffer the most

the fack wrong wit allyuh?...this issa commentry ched nao?

steups...

heh... hold dis..

An eagle eyed tipster managed to take the first (albeit blurry) shots of the new BMW 3-series sedan (F30). From what can be seen in those photos it will be a very handsome and evolutionary design. The front appears sporty yet elegant and -- to the relief of many -- the headlights are sleeker and smaller compared to the F20 1-series. The rear clearly shows a family resemblance to the F10 5-series, yet the rearlights are somewhat different at the outer edges to make for a unique look.

As with the F20, the side turn indicators are now integrated into the mirros. There appears to be some badging at the front quarter panel where the side indicators used to sit. This makes us believe that BMW will introduce design lines for the new 3-series as well. The F20 1-series is available with Urban and Sport design lines, we expect the F30 3-series to sport similar design lines.

The exterior color seen here is called Mineral Gray (update: it's said to be Sparkling Bronze instead). The interior of this particular car seems to be grey or beige. Interestingly, both dashboard and steering wheel have the same color. BMW actually seems to be repeating its past with their fully colored interiors of past days (also seen on F30 long wheel base prototypes meant for China). These shots also show that Head Up Display will finally make its way to the 3-series, as well as the free-standing iDrive screen following the design scheme introduced with the F12/3 6-series.

F30 begins production in November 2011. The 2012 Model Year will run until June 2012, upon which point it will switch to the 2013 Model Year. Sales will begin in Europe around the time of its world public premiere at the 2011 Geneva show - in March, 2012. US sales should begin next Spring.

The F30 3-series will debut as 328i and 335i models. The 328i will be powered by the 'N20' turbo 4-cylinder inline engine (as found in the Z4 28i and 2012 528i, and the 335i by a turbo 6-cylinder inline motor).

BMW will officially pull the wraps off of the new 3-series in November, but we wouldn't be surprised if more leaks would occur in the meantime.

Never said it was a good investment.
