i was teasing my wife this morning about ridding myself of the bimmer and buying a Cobra with a hard top. Her response in her
typical cool was 'ok' with an eyeroll.

I'm certain that an everyday driver Cobra would be a maintenance nitemare. The bimmer has been an fn pain in my neck. 3 thermostats, 2 sets of window vapor barriers (flooded...twice) 1 repair to the sunroof motor, 1 replace of the sunroof motor, both headlights and turn signals replaced and intermittent problems with the air prior to the compressor issue now. This year I replaced all the rotors and brakes and on my 3rd set of tires....(yea i drive the HELL out of it). all in all, its a blast but an expensive one. sorry I missed you guys on Sunday. I was wanting to check out the rendezvous point and see the rides...clocked 22hrs this weekend. Anyone want an architect on retainer? I'm here for all your renovation and new house construction....daddy needs a new car.
