And for her anniversary you bought her???

I believe in cars the 5th anniversary is the coil overs year��. And a bit of carbon fiber as an appetizer doesn’t hurt either, helps delay the 7 year itch...

I put her in a garage to keep old man winter from ruining her paint.

Been thinking about having some family members come over and help out with installing all the suspension refresh goodies I have for her.

No coilovers yet.

If I make it to 7 years, you can pat me on the back.

Boating season over, she’s winterized now, let me know when suspension refresh is happening, would like to attend/help if I can. In August sold the go fast and bought a more family friendly boat, gave up about 5 mph @ WOT but kids much more happy, carries twice as many people and is conducive to water sports, bought 2 big tubes & 3 wakeboards, went boating every weekend from mid-August until the marina closed at end of October.

Brett’s old car has been gone 2.5 years, current owner said he’s thinking of selling for an M coupe, it just crossed 100K miles, I’m slightly tempted since I know the car so well.

Where did you go boating ? The previous boat you had was awesome. Curious to see what the new one is like.

Also if another zhp appears in your stable, I'm making a trip to look at it. Been a while since I spent time with great people

New boat is a big bowrider, 2002 Cobalt 262, 26.5 ft long, carries a dozen people, single 496/ 375hp engine does great, 58 mph with 2 people, 52 mph with 8 people. It’s 15 years old but only had 223 hours when I bought it, spent its life on a freshwater CT lake, rested in a covered boat slip with lift, it’s almost like new. I added 30 hours to it in 2.5 months, plan to do many more next year.

That's awesome. Glad to hear you are enjoying it

It is nothing fancy but has good reviews and is simple to use

This one is identical to the BMW battery tender/charger I have... been using it for about 8 years on all my batteries: cars, boat, Golf cart, tractor.
