      Perfect weather to be at a desk indeed. 
      I really am tired of constantly dumping money into my car to no avail. 
      I have the other car that I really want to work on, but tell myself that I cant work on it until the nice one (turbo) is done. Sad face

        At least you're making somewhat decent progress=) I sat and thought about what I have achieved on my car in the past year and let's just say it is a very short list compared to the prior year

          *cough* meetings cancelled today. *cough* day off *cough* ...what. :-). Headed to Appleton today to test drive an M4 for fun.. Some email I got from BMW to drive a new BMW to support Team USA. Must be just a sales event but if they are going to let me drive one I'm not going to argue. Lol

              My shop is right near the dealership! I can also take a long lunch break from work  today if you needed..... a local familiar with the city? A co driver to keep you awake?

                I think it's with a dealer from the sound of it. But after we can raise some hell in my car if you're interested. I'll be free around 12:30

                            The BMW attorneys obviously haven't seen this yet.

                                    Update: V70R is the best family car around. I will post pics soon. Silver with black and tan interior, 6spd, 300 horsies under the hood. It was a one owner car and has been very well maintained. A professor at UWP bought it from Chicago. It's a major upgrade from the rusty old maxima.

                                      It probably sounds a million times cooler than the maxima too

                                        For sure, that spooling noise is fun. Got 22.5mpg on the way back too, I was expecting worse.
