I don't listen.

Honestly, I appreciate the advice but when I was kid our family cars were: 1) 1978 Camaro w/ a 350; 2) 1980 Buick Skyhawk; 3) 1983 Olds Cutlass Calais; 4)1985 Olds Toronado; 5) 1988 Dodge Daytona; 6)1995 Ford Thunderbird Sport (5.0 V8). We didn't even have a four door until I hit high school.

that L change.....

Wow! I can't believe you let the M3 go but I don't blame you either. Nice purchase. Now you guys are black and blue!

No, I let the M3 I was looking at go (e92). Seller hadn't had the rod bearings done and wouldn't come down on the price.

I still have the e30. The Z4 is getting the axe.

I'm trying to figure out if I can get a kid seat that will fit in back of the e30. For some reason Sarah keeps calling it a "Death Trap."

Yup. One owner 2008 135i with 56,000 miles on the odo. Only negative I've found on her is an open Takata air bag recall.

Since the board is slow, a State Trooper plowed into the 135 a couple of weeks ago and it is toast (part of the reason I missed the board meeting last week.)

Back to Mustangs and M3s. BTW, after doing the kid thing with a two door for 8 months, it really isn't that hard. I get to flip the seat around in September.

That sucks. Hope you know a good lawyer. lol

No injuries so unfortunately I don't have a massive claim against the state.

I thought your neck was hurting... and you haven't been able to fulfill your regional duties. [emoji1787]

- Yeah, I got got paid out on my neck years ago ('98 Camaro SS that got tboned as well).

That really does suck. Sorry to hear it.
Charger/Challenger with a 392. Just sayin.

We recently got a Durango RT and love it. I imagine the SRT would be the ultimate fun family hauler. Getting car seats in the back of a 2 door sucks and getting in there to buckle them up sucks too.
