First I had to park like this because the other car is too close. So, don't call me a bad driver, m'kay.

This was supposed to be the Summer of George. I was gonna read a book, go through my Netflix queue, see friends, and most importantly do so in a cool car. But no....

So, currently don't have a car. Last fall "my" E34 went away. I looked after it for a family friend while they were away for 6 months. I would have bought the car from him but it had a lot of mechanical issues and has an accident on the record. Wasn't sure what the insurance would be like, not to mention that cost to fix the car fully, since I was about to return to college and needed to make a 600km trip.

So, I am stuck with the leftover Honda Odyssey, with some power steering issues and a transmission that not only changes at the wrong time but changes with the clout and velocity of a 15 year old ricer. One good thing about it is that the middle row seats are really good. But since I drive it I don't get that pleasure.

So, the next few weeks I will be visiting dealerships and weird private sellers. Which is actually a lot of fun. Wish me luck, hopefully I don't go insane with this car.

PS. its actually a better overall car than other minivans, or at least on paper it seems so.

So I guess if I don't find a manual 2009-2011 328i, some good quality 80s BMW, Audi wagon, or settle for an ST the summer of George will be ruined.

Enjoy some Summer of George clips

Love the SoG reference.

And there is no settling for an ST, it's an honor and a privilege. Join us!
