It's my one-year hooniversary tomorrow!

davesaddiction · 05-31-2013, 10:22 AM

And it still feels like I'm on my honeymoon...

One year ago tomorrow I signed the dotted line to make this beautiful beast mine and took her back to her new home. Here's a recent shot from a trip to the Arkansas hill country:

It was a perfect morning here today (after the storms last night); I drove to work with the windows down and roof open to take in all the beautiful noises.

Going to shine her up nicely this weekend and start to get prepped for two days at Motorsport Ranch next weekend with The Driver's Edge!

I love this car! Hopefully she'll be in my garage for many more years to come.

For anyone on the fence about getting one:

It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.

Thanks all. I'm 35 and my oldest son is six - hope it works out for me to keep it at least long enough for him to experience driving it, if not for the duration!

Nice color

JoeKixxon · 05-31-2013, 11:31 AM

That's a great pic. You've got a real eye for beauty.

So glad you love the car. Mine brings me so much joy as well. And they look like they could be sisters.

Thanks, Joe - here are some more shots from that trip. I never got around to a write up (or to taking pictures of anything but our cars, for that matter!)...

Silverstone....gotta love it....looks great!!

Congrats on the anniversary! I know how you feel. I'm one year in June and its the first car I've had where I in no way would consider selling it after a year. As an enthusiast, it's just fantastic to arrive at a car I actually want to keep for the long haul!

No matter how crappy a day I have at work, when I get behind the wheel, it all stays there... I get home, smile on my face, worries left behind.

Congrats! Im on two years + and she still fascinates me.

Wow...I guess there is at least one person in Arkansas who doesn't drive a pick-up truck. Sorry.....couldn't resist. But seriously....congratulations. We are all very fortunate to be able to own such an amazing vehicle. I just dropped off my daughter at a friends house for a pool party/sleep-over. She asked, "Are we taking the M3?" I said "Yes". When we got in, she asked me to put the windows down, turn up the music and drive fast!! That's my girl!!
