Or how about just buying bread at 7-11 and sitting around the table in 7-11? If we are watching our money - we can even use octopus.
I think the restaurant above AK's shop is fine, so AK can join us for the dinner aswell
As the Lunar new year is approaching, its difficult to book the table.

So are we all happy with that?

KC remember that I say a year ago that BMW will be designing a 4 cylinder engines for sports car.
They have made it and will be installed this years Z4 3.0i and 328i
it will be 4 cylinder with a turbocharge with about 200hp
I like small engines with big power.

think they need to in order to survive the stringent emission law, I think its a good thing for the environment. 200 bhp is quite behind the audi engine though. I dont know how bmw is going to maintain their brand name. the silky smooth inline 6 and the race pedigree give bmws its signature and now the new cars handling is only so so, probably soon they will put the mini engine into the lower models.

Yeah, i think VW Group are ahead of the pack in terms of efficient low emission engines.... Their 1.8/2.0T engines are pretty popular now!!

Cant agree anymore.
Heard they will make 0 series base on the mini chassis and will be front wheel drive too.
i dont think they care about the handling anymore
