How can one love a car so much?
Alright, if you got a minute (or 5) kick back and enjoy the magnificence of the TL-S.
So I had one of those days where you go into work early, work your ass off and end up still having to stay late.
However, the one seriously positive thread going through my day was my 03 ABP TLS. When I left for work I marveled at her as I opened the garage door. Then work and that F*CKING SUCKED!! So I'm driving home and admiring how smooth my car flows from 50 to 80 on the Beltway.
I get to a large 4-way light by my house where it's great to race (no cops, enough room to get good speed, not many other people). But no one is around.
Along rides up an 03 BMW3?isedan and he looks ready to go when the light turns green. I'm thinking either it's 330 and I have no chance with good driver or it's 325 and it doesn't matter... So the light turns green, I step on it mildly and he starts floorin it, it's a 325i (white). I lay on the pedal and am gone, by 60 I'm 3 car lengths ahead.
All in all,the car made it a wonderful day, now time to get her washed...

Yes working is a *****, but you have to do it. I like my weekend job.... I stand around and scratch my "wiesel" and I get paid a lot of money doing it
Silver Satin all the way! All other colors are good for junkyard stuff: fog lights, HID ballast, tail lights, you know.....

I feel the same way about my car...I work 10-12 hours/day (pays for the ride after all). At the end of the day, there's nothing better than hearing the wail of the engine as I'm flogging it above 4500 rpm, accelerating onto the freeway. It feels just as good in a TL-P as in a TL-S.
....aaaaaaahhhh.
....aaaaaaahhhh.

Not to spoil it for everyone, but I too Love my car very much...but last week I rear ended someone and it is costing me an arm and a leg to get it repaired because I'm paying for the repairs with my OWN money...Shiet, is gonna cost me almost $4000, maybe less..who knows...but when I do get her back...It shall be better than ever...With the Kit, clear headlights(I hope), and everything back to normal..not a scratch on her...CAN'T WAIT....You right nothing beats driving a TL-S on the freeway...other than an M3...hahahahhaha
