HA! His DD is a 1.8T GTI. The M3 is his mistress. About once a month he sneaks off to the "track" with her so they can have some "alone time".
Ah.. I have dreams of driving my car after it's been caged and gutted no A/C or power anything as a daily driver.
That dream will last about two days. Then suddenly you realize that you have no A/C or power anything! And you have climb into a race seat, buckle four belts, attach the steering wheel then realize that you can't reach your keys. We are looking into getting a tow vehicle because driving this thing 4-5 hours to Thunderhill or even the 2 hours to Laguna Seca can get old, fast. Plus, there's too much to haul. Track wheels, jack, jack stands, tools, etc. If I don't go the track with him and haul stuff in my car, it's a really tight fit to get it all in his M3.
Oh I don't know.. I love riding in my buddies caged/gutted car. He has an ITR with obnoxiously loud exhaust yet the 5 hour ride to get it dyno'd wasn't bad. I couldn't outweigh how cool it was!
I got a new bike today, A yamaha R6. I will still use my car for all major journeys but it's fun riding this when the weathers good. Mines the one at the back, my friends is the front one, It's a R1

This looks like fun. gotta say There are some nice cars / bikes here but his stands out. I'd enjoy modding the shit out of it. If I ever get through the city hall permits and zoning to get my garage up I think I'm going to buy a second safari minivan like mine and put a V8 into it amidship, I know it is nuts but I remember seeing "The Little Red Wagon" at the dragstrip. It was an early '60 dodge van / pickup style and I loved it.
How are you liking the 2007? I test drove one recently and felt VERY cramped inside of it. I'm not even that tall (6'0"ish). Even the 2005 is a bit cramped for me, but I manage ok, heh.
