As would I.

The Volt is bad, but not THAT bad.

Teddy bear, my current BMW has 10 cylinders and 507 bhp and is a real gas gulper (45 miles/gallon).
That is bad indeed!

Now my next one, just signed the contract, has only 8 cylinders but is bi turbo charged to 550 bhp and consumes almost 35% less gas!

Isn't that sensational?

Delivery is Feb, 2012 and I'll take a week off and check it out on the Autobahn :)

Have fun with your reliable GM Volt!

Ted, > In truth, I would buy a Volt over a Beamer

Please let us know when you do.

Meanwhile, my Beamer is coming up to the 150K mile mark. Not too shabby.
