    Aw man, potholes and broken road surfaces are out of control this time! I must look like a drunk driver swerving all over the place to avoid that crap.
    The upshot is, I drove my 360 for about 3 hours yesterday! Happy days are here again!!!

    That's awesome Raj!! Everyone is in such a huge deficit from the brutal winter, and that must have felt great! I have a feeling people are going to be going all out this summer, just because we've all been cooped up inside for so long. My sales manager said he wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people will be buying convertibles this summer to make up for lost time.

    I did my first car wash of the season this weekend, and drove it on both Saturday and Sunday!
    Bought a new Master Blaster 8 HP heated drying tool, which is AWESOME!!

    Looking great Raj! Let the fun begin!

    I just washed the winter's garage dust off of my car tonight, but with a pretty different strategy. I waited until is started raining and then soaped her up and washed her down. A quick rinse with a hose was followed by a few hours of drizzly rain to rinse away all of the dissolved metals from the tap water. Rain is just nature's distilled water, free and clean, can't beat that. She'll just drip dry with no water stains. Works like a charm.

    Thanks guys, it was a real joy to get the first car wash done. I'm still planning to send her to Todd @ Esoteric for a freshen-up detailing treatment and some minor leather work on the interior.

    These cars embody everything that is awesome about the spirit of fun! I can't wait to get her out on the road and rack up some more miles! Maybe even tomorrow!

    I've had my summer tires on my M5 for about a month now, and she (my M5) goes for a full detailing session tomorrow! Hooray!! Spring time means clean cars.
