Your car ownership stats are misleading! So, uh, how many BMWs have you had?

Jesse -- very pretty car. Great color and looks. Hope it is as fun to drive as it looks. Enjoy it!

X2. I’d be having a hard time finding excuses to not buy it if it did. Still hard, however I haven’t sat in one yet.

Jesse, she is gorgeous man!! Congrats!! Can’t wait to see a side profile with the new wheels!!

Yeah - when the wife says she wants something a bit louder in color for the 3rd car, you do everything you can to make it happen.

Paul! I gave you a shout out earlier in the thread buddy!!

Either you make your way up to Monterey, or I'll roll down to SD and we can cruise.

Go M's!

If it wasn't for the mid-engine and new styling (plus the HTC), I wouldn't be a Corvette fan. Now all of them look good to me!

You need a “matching “ Day Date in ice blue! Very nice! Enjoy it! Have seen them on the road. Looks like a sleeker Batmobile.
