and she came home with one of these! A BMW 328i coupe in the gorgeous Blue Water Metallic. It's a color-shifting paint that looks gray dead on and a beautiful light blue from any other angle. She fell in love with the color combination (the interior's the usual BMW light tan affair), signed on the dotted line immediately, and drove it home.
Like Jeremy Clarkson himself, I feel that the right car is the one that stirs your heart. Mom let her heartstrings get pulled with this one, and she even capitulated to the car's persistence in coming with the Sports Package - something she didn't necessarily want, but can live with - in order to have this car.
I have to say, Mom's developed an excellent taste in cars over the years.
