Suzy, 

You seem to omit the fact that when you buy a Bimmer in Germany you may get
a bottle of BMW champagne, but you also get slapped with a 15% MWST tax.
Here in VA where I bought my car I only paid 3% sales tax.  Do us all a
favor, stop whining and go buy yourself a dozen or so cases of Dom Perignon
with the $4,800 that you saved on taxes alone.
