Bittersweet, new car is here!

SO I said goodbye to the G today. She served me well for 65,113km in just over 20 months; got her cleaned up nice for the trade-in. When we arrived and were going over the new car some guys stopped by the G to admire the shine, it made me sad a little.

Then some other guys stopped and signed papers on her hood, I yelled at them!

Then I drove away in my new car. Goodbye G!



But HEEEELLLLOOOOO 3!



Just got up from doing a little "kevin-PDI", my CA was awesome, it was totally untouched with only a few km when I arrived, and no front bumper. Drove it around most of the day and, well... it's love!

Cheers guys, happy holidays!

Congrats Kevin! Beautiful Machine! I expect to see some pics and REVIEWS!!!!! The 335i Coupe is a car that I would definately consider for MY next car over the G35 Coupe, depending on what the 08 Coupe has in store for us...

Also, that G is SOOOO shiny! Love it!

Thanks guys. I am sad for the G; I just know the dealership is probably washing her with a brillo pad right now.... Oh well, more pics!

















Tint and clear bra go on next week. I'm doing the sidemarker delete, alum pedals and de-badge tomorrow, then that's it till spring!

OOOOOOh yeah, man....she's a beauty....congrats Kevin. You waited a long time for this, and she sure looks worth the wait.......

Kudos for cleaning up the G......You gave her a good send-off and hopefully the next owner with give her more of the TLC she was accustomed to.

Enjoy, and a very Merry Christmas to you and your family too.
All the best in '07, can't wait for a meet in the spring to see all the new rides.....

Be safe

Colin

Oooooohhhh --- that's an awesome car and colour! Congrats!!!

On another note...sheeesh, it's unbelievable how some people would just go over to someone else's car like that and use it like desk. I hope you stuck it to him good for the next new G owner's sake.
