BMW hands Pope Benedict keys to X5 SUV
FRANKFURT - Germany's BMW has handed the keys to an X5 full-size sport utility vehicle to Pope Benedict, the world's largest premium carmaker said on Thursday.
"We are proud to be able to provide Pope Benedict XVI with a BMW car," the group's chief of marketing and sales, Michael Ganal, said in a statement following an audience with the pontiff.
Benedict hails from the small Bavarian town of Marktl am Inn, about an hour's drive from Munich, where BMW is based.

So the Pope's a Suburban Soccer Mom? Fuck, I gotta keep up with the goings on in the Church... I thought they elected some kooky cat who was once in the Hitler Youth. Must've been daydreaming again. I daydream a lot about papal succession.
