There are a lot, and I mean A LOT of BMW's near where I'm staying. Probably because I'm only an hour from the City (New York for non NYers). Not complaining one bit though. Waiting on that first 911 or better sighting though. Maybe that'll happen on Wednesday when I go into the city. Also 500L's are really cool looking in person, especially in white with two black stripes across the length of the car.

Yeah, or they're all bankers living outside of NY who work in NYC.

Yeah, I feel the closer to NY and LI the more fancy cars I'll see.

Same in MA from Worcester over to the Cape. BMWs, Audis, Subarus, Volvos. And all of that is just to replace the Saabs.

Yeah that's been probably 50-65% of cars I've seen once we got into the city we're staying.

The nice cars can typically be found in either Westport (Expect to see suit cars; M3s, AMGs, Audi S-Cars) or Greenwich (Miller Motorcars has EVERYTHING. Word on the street is as of a couple days ago, they had a Huayra on the McLaren showroom floor, and once, while I was looking at the Ferraris, a Veyron drove past).

What'd you do for sightseeing? The Milford beaches aren't bad, and the Green is gorgeous.

We really didn't do anything yet because we got in around 530PM so we just ate dinner and went shopping for some food. My parents made me walk around Wholefoods because Top Chef. I'll try and see if we can go towards Greenwich one day. We're going to be here through Thursday and tomorrow is really the only day we have planned out. besides going to a game in NY on Wednesday.

My dad said he sees more BMWs when he visits home (Simsbury CT) then he does here where he lives (Germany)
