Thanks for all your inputs, guys...Hey Chris, no money lost, just a class level (or two). LOL..If I buy and sell over here, I usually MAKE money on the sale. (Short supply + high demand = $$$.) However, if I ship it back to the US, I dont know if I would stand to make (or lose) the same amount of $$$ on the sale. I mean, hell, I even thought about just getting an E90 here, and getting a minivan when I get back. (Jan-Feb 2006.)

The problem is, Ive come to realize Im paying more for things that are either a) irrelevant to me, (i.e., Trip Computer, Bluetooth, etc.) or,
b) I would abuse. (i.e., Plush leather seats, Dual climate control, etc)

Just browsing around the i-net. I see an abundance of 2002+ MDX's for less than 30 grand that pretty much all have less than 40K miles on the clock. I just think at this point in life, that would be more practical..BUT NOT WITHOUT RECLINING REAR SEATS DAMMIT!! :...IM SERIOUS!
