THAT YOU DRIVE A BMW!!!

I have been working a LOT lately and haven't had much time for the Black Beauty. I even got my first water spots

!!! It got to the point where I got sick of washing it, and taking care of it. I even considered selling it for a newer car (I know what you are thinking, but wait)...

anyway, to the good part. There is a fair going on so highway traffic blows. So today I took the twisty back roads for the first time in a while. And just hearing that engine roar up to 70-80 mph and hearing those tires squeel around corners made me smile the whole way there. I loved it.

So if you are ever unhappy with your car for some reason, go and drive it the way it was meant to be driven and you will be put back into perspective.

I know exactly how you feel! I did a similar thing today, there is this one amazing turn where the road goes up and takes a sharp 90 degree turn. As I approached it I was like "what the hell" I floored it and took it at about 70-80mph. My tires don't really make a lot of noise, but I could hear them squeel a little and car was holding hard on the road...

And right after that amazing feeling, I thought about this one sentence:

" BMW the ultimate driving machine "

i usually don't go above 50 around sharp turns on the backroads near me I don't feel like possibly wrecking my car..

ot: That Sig is wicked mang

**Rooz** · 08-26-2005, 11:49 PM

Yeah, the sig does kickass... I always wonder what my rims look like when driving, I guess they look like that

**Terp** · 08-27-2005, 12:54 AM

I have these kinds of moments after I put in a whole day of washing my car and get a chance to step back and look at it, that is the time when I love my car the most.

My 325 can be moody sometimes. On a bad day, she's like "screw you, I ain't doin' shit today". And on a good day she's saying "what? That's all you got for me?!" But I love her all the same . . . kinda like a gf or a wife

**EnvyM3** · 08-27-2005, 09:57 AM

^^^^So true...Prolly one of the most clever comparisons I've ever heard

and I agree that sig is sick
