What have you done to your P5 today?

Added at least a qt of oil yesterday and charged the AC system with some Duracool.

After hand washing the BMW...

Thinking about taking the P5 and see'ing what I can get for trade on a nice `06 Audi A3 at a local stealership. Not sure I'm ready for a 2nd car payment though.

Click to expand...

might want to check your alternator for voltage spikes

this happened to me when my alternator went out.
 
Bringing mine to the Deals Gap this weekend...also going to be passing driving to the 540* turn...I think it is 540*...

Cleaned it out today...gonna be taking out the sub setup and rear seats...

Also...if anyone has roof rack bolts...I NEED THEM...willing to pay good for them or trade filler caps...
 
I washed her...didn't have the energy to wax also, but I did apply a little 303 and tire shine. She looks so much better than before. I might try a night shoot sometime soon if I can keep her clean long enough.
 
Created new "feet" for the Yakima fairing. One of the old ones had fallen off, and the plastic was banging against the roof something fierce!
 
Spent the last 4 hours at the dealership getting my girlfriends 2010 Mazda 3....I kinda wanna get a Mazdaspeed 3....Proly going to test drive it tomorrow.....
 
I was looking at the 2010 speed3 when I went to the dealership the other day. They are nice, I didn't test drive but I know they are pretty quick, but the styling of the new cars has not grown on me one bit yet. I just think they look too funky in the front.
 
Yea the styling has kinda grown on me. lol I tried to get all the free accessories I could...like key chains, zoom zoom stickers and even an umbrella... lol I was like "Im the ultimate Mazda enthusiast! I want my girlfriend to be one too! Thats why I brought her down here...now give me some free stuff....lol. Also for those of you who dont know the Mazda S-Plan is pretty awesome. I was quoted for a mazdaspeed3 2010 for $21,000...Too b ad I owe too much on my P5...lol
 
^ I was considering an `06 Audi A3, but for a "beater" car, I think I've decided to stick with no car payments (today, might change my mind tomorrow) I'm planning to drop by the bank and open an additional savings account for which I can put away $$ for an engine if she blows, got quoted $950 shipped, $850 picked up for one with 67,000 miles about 250 miles away. Throw cash into that account and when I find one at a good price, scoop it up. The suspension is almost completely new, the car doesn't look terrible, its just the 226,000 mile engine is tired...

I was thinking that AWD and turbo would be nice... But, I know the wife would kill me if I did that... Hell, I've barely had the P5 for 5 months.
