My winter & bad weather car!!Do you have
My winter & bad weather car!! Do you have second car???

A 1999 Nisan Altima
I had to change the starter in it, the other day! All I can say is WOW! It took me 2 hours, first I could not even find the thing!!!! I'll work on my Bimmer any day of the week!!!
Sometimes I forget I'm not driving my Bimmer and I'll take a curve @ 70mph & almost drive off the road!! It helps having a second car, for one it preserves your Bimmer!

my current car -as my Touring is in the garage for the winter time- is an 07 Mercedes A-Class (my mom's car)
it looks like this


but it's actually quite quick.. it's loaded and has the 2.0 liter 133 hp engine...
and with the SMG tranny you can drive it quite quick. Just last weekend I smoked a friends 118i with it
