    Hardtop Convertibles

    D Yizz: I test drove the Q37 yesterday and loved it, absolutely loved it. Great cup holders, the back up camera is neat, integrated blue tooth and ipod and nav system. They had a stripped model for $44,000 (and still comes better equipped than you might imagine for stripped) and might take...

    Hardtop Convertibles

    Well, talked to my mechanic. He used to be the head manager at a facility that had multi-lines, like Jag, Range Rover and he also worked at a Volvo dealership. He told me that with the new line of Lexus, they ride great, but after 100,000 miles, they are the most expensive to fix and everything...

    Dhermann, I'll be checking out that link. Since we do not know what our daughter's schedule is, Thursday and Friday are out. They have something up for Saturday at the Ice Rink, and I do not know if we are invited or not, but that could be fun. So Wednesday night (and maybe Tuesday if we get...

    Hardtop Convertibles

    Thanks all. I am inclined, not being a speed demon, to just go see them and see which one makes me feel good. So far, I tend to like the look of the BMW first, then the Infinity, then the Lexus. Im not all that thrilled about the Volvo, but it would probably be cheapest, and the Audi would be...

    Hardtop Convertibles

    D Yizz: You nailed it. I do not think the Volvo would be fun and yes, would be like driving the Seabring, and also my Solara. The BMW at least is a nimble car, kinda like having a dog straining at its leash to run ahead of its master, whereas the Volvo and Solara are like dogs that heel. The...

    We waited to long on the Belvedere and am staying at the Helmsley New York which is near Grand Central Station. Got it for around $130 a night, and with taxes, that ran $800.00 for 5 nights - not bad. We will be at NYU law school which they say is in Tribeca Thursday and Friday and Saturday if...

    Hardtop Convertibles

    Dave, I know that the ride is probably not as good with a convertible, but really, when car people talk about how a car handles this way, or brakes that way, it is lost on me. What they write does not translate very well for me, in that when they would talk about the flavor of oak in a wine, it...

    Hardtop Convertibles

    I have a 2002 Toyota Solara, approaching 145,000 miles. Struts on the back are totally shot, seat belt will not retract automatically, oil leak on top, probably shocks, needs other repairs and a piece of the side door molding needs replaced. With a car that needs about $1500 or more in repairs...

    Steal, or stolen from, on these Talbott cufflinks

    They are sterling and are about 6 or so seasons old I am guessing. I am guessing it had either a pearl-type stone or some blue stone, but not something that would be considered a precious gem. I was thinking of salvaging them by using a pearl or some blue stone in them. Wife thinks they look...

    Steal, or stolen from, on these Talbott cufflinks

    Ebay auction, winning bid at $69.00. Wife says they look like buttons, but I am more worried about the center of the links. I dont know why I skimmed over this on the listing but it appears that a stone is missing from the center and that is glue spots. So, passable because no one looks that...
