I have a 1987 BMW 325iC and want to get the best mpg that I can. Will your system help with this and is this old of a BMW capable? I am told that all the later BMW's are set up with computer interface for their engines etc. This would be a great car to start with. I have more than one car, but this one is a gas hog. Goes fast though. I am setting up my laptop that has Ubuntu OS and Blue Tooth. I have a 1987 BMW 325iC and want to get the best mpg that I can.

DO make sure that you get out to some good restaurants though. German cuisine is the best! Also, I would recommend trying to visit some German bakeries - there is nothing here in the US that can compare with their pastries and breads. I spent 2 years in Germany in the early 90's. Hope you enjoy it! You shouldn’t have to worry much about people not speaking English in Frankfurt – it’s too large of a city, and there are too many businesses not to speak English.

(Where is the toilet?) and last: Ich bin Kanadier, kein Amerikaner! (I am from Canada, not American!!) ;-) No, we Germans also like Americans, so don't worry about the last one! If there will be a blogger meeting in Germany, please post about it on your blog so I might come as well! Tobias Chris,
