You go out and wash your damn car!! By hand!! :D

Everyone looks at you funny when they see you in a long coat with a bucket and mitt in your hand. Who cares, I got the cleanest car on my street now!

That looks terrific. I respect you for having the fortitude to accomplish something like this.

No. I should have, but I didn't think it was a good idea to wax it in such weather. :-/

Once more unto the frozen breech I go. And there's a winter storm warning for tomorrow as well.

It's 73° and sunny right now. I thought about it. I cleaned/vacuumed/detailed the interior last weekend, so I totally should have washed it this weekend, but I didn't. I did, however, get a couple of rock chips in the windshield fixed today.

The FoST looks good, though! Yay, happy cars!

Its actually been a rather tame winter so far. Not much has bee going on snow-wise. This will be maybe the 2nd major snowfall we get if it does snow?

Aren't you going to be driving on wet streets tomorrow from the snow melt?

Not bad, but snowmageddon starts tonight.

What do you make of this depressing news? ;_;

That sounds terrible.

It's quite disconcerting when you actually have the facts clearly laid out like that. For me personally, I had heard that turbocharging was coming but the fact that not one BMW is N/A anymore definitely surprised me. I'm willing to give turbo motors a chance but I truly will miss magnificent engines like the the Metzger and Tipo motors.

This is awful. I need money NOW. Everything that I want is going away so fast, and I can't afford any of it. I know I'm reasonably smart with money, but I am willing to put myself in debt just so I can get one naturally aspirated car and drive it forever.

I understand.

What car would you choose?

That's the problem, I have no idea! :(

911, Mustang GT, Cayman, I have no idea. But I must have one by the end of this year! But my dad will never go for it; he likes cars and "understands" how much they mean to me, but he just wouldn't let me do it. What can I do? The end is coming.

I'm not sure, my friend. I wouldn't want you to put yourself in a tough financial position but I can understand your argument that these cars might become unattainable. That being said, I'm hoping 997 Carrera models keep depreciating.

I just don't know what to do. If only I wasn't born in the 90s. If only it was the 80s, those 10 years could have been all the difference in me being able to actually affording something cool.

I understand your frustration. Unfortunately, the only thing I can say is that I truly hope that you are successful in life and are able to afford at least one of these magnificent machines that you desire.
