I can't believe you've had so many probs. My 04.5 Touring was good to me. But of course I sold it the day it turned over 33k miles, so it had better have been good to me. Does yours have a lot of miles or something?

41k. I bought it with 32544 on the odometer. It had more problems before I bought it. I had the service records for it. I really want to keep it but I think its better to chalk this car up as a loss and move on. If I do do that and I buy something sleeperish like a G8 GT, my next sports car will probably be a lotus or a vette or something fun and supercarwannabeish next.

Yeah. I considered a Lotus, but I don't want to blow that kind of coin on a car with optional carpet ya know? I liked my Z, but I don't think I will own another one.

Why not? If you'd rather not share on here, we can PM. Sorry. i'm just curious. I like the optional carpet on the Lotus. Then again, i want a Scuderia. A car thats as expensive as a house in Malibu and has uncovered welds in the interior. lol. I like how raw the Lotus feels and that its totally impractical.

I'd love a Scuderia. Lotus? Maybe if it's the Exige. I've driven the Elise. It's okay.
Dawn, good luck on the interview today.

THanks! I could barely sleep last night. I'm sitting here eating toast and chugging Geek Beer (Bawl's Energy drink that tastes like Root Beer) God, I hope I do well.

Didn't know that.
It was fun to drive thats for sure. But if having one means dealing with another temperamental Z, I'll pass. I've had enough crazy ass car for one lifetime courtesy of this thing.

I went to BMW today. I was trying to see the 1 series however it is that all the 1 series lovers see it. Its almost 5 years after I saw my first 1 in Italy. I'm sorry. I can't get passed its looks. The power to weight ratio is awesome but the 3 series is a sexy little beast to me.
On another note, I'm trying to get passed the fact that the G8 GT has 4 doors. If I can just do that, I'll get one. But the four door thing is bothering me.
