Yup, it was Laura's high school/college dream car. True, we drove it back from Boston to Houston. It had a few issues that we've taken care of like correcting badges, trunk latch, DSC, new tires, some worn interior panels etc. We do drive it to work on Friday's as long as it's not raining with no worries about it leaving us stranded, as the Sky did to us a few times which prompted us selling that a few years ago. To quote Laura, "It does look pretty sitting there, but the Mini is more fun to drive".

Laura found my 'dream' car while bored checking autotrader just for fun. So to help fund that purchase and make room in the garage, the M3 has to go. If it wasn't for that, we'd hold onto the M3. She's glad to have had it (even if it was only for 18 months), but this 'new' car, well, it's just better in every way

Stay tuned.
