Thumbs up Time flies when you're having fun...

So, I bought my car a bit less than two months ago... '08 Carrera S with about 30K miles on the odometer... Today, I passed 40K miles. Just goes to show one thing: I need to drive more.

Damn, I love this car.

Haha. Glad to see you're enjoying it. It's meant to be driven and enjoyed!!!! It's not hard to put a lot of miles on a car in this state! Sorry I didn't get to catch up with you in Austin during the sports car weekend at COTA. That event wore me out! I should be down there at the end of Nov. If you're ever in Big D, give me a shout.

I had motorcycles forever and it was a Badge of Honor to have high miles on your bike.
At least to me.
I never ever think, I don't want to drive it, so I can keep the miles down.
My brother drove it last winter out to Iowa, snow tires...curb rashed the right rear...he had a Blast.
I enjoyed knowing he had a Blast!

When I sell it though, it was Garage Kept.
Which it was.

Actually, just realized I bought it on September 5th, so that's 10,000 miles in 6 weeks... Not too shabby, but still need to drive more.

At this pace we should get started on building your supercharger kit for you before you get tired of your car!

Congrats and glad you're enjoying your ride as it should be!
