Wow love this car.

So I come home from college and drive my 8 for the first time in about 4 months. I have to say I've truly missed it.

Conveniently enough, my first time back on the road I get pulled over for going a bit fast through twistys. Haha he let me off though because I just said I was joy riding because I just got home.

I personally like not driving it for small doses at a time. Keeps the miles down and keeps the appreciation for the car up.

I was the same way, until I went over 70,000 miles over the summer. I sat there and decided if I wanted to trade in or keep it, since the miles were getting up there. After a few tests drives and looking up book values, etc. I made the decision to keep it as a secondary car, hopefully forever.

So thats why mine stays in a garage while I drive the girlfriends Grand Prix

I was parked at the mail boxes getting my mail and the mailman was there he asked if I park up my car for the winter and I said sort of...

I can't go a week without driving my car... It gives off some kind of energy... So this is why I have snow tires...
