congrats...I thought you were just getting rid of the S4 with no intentions of getting another
car since you bought the MR2....so how did you end up with an M3? Bring it out to a meet sometime I'd love to get a ride, never been in an M3.

Definitely soon, classes are driving me insane, and I've got a new house to maintain
but other than that my schedule is wide open! 
Any meets coming up? Love to meet up sometime though.
And what's this about VIR? I haven't been checking AW too often since I sold the S4. I definitely want to start doing driving schools. This thing is just about as track prepped as a reasonably comfortable street car is going to get (sans pads).

Yep, couldn't stay away forever. I guess I was getting a little worried
about running a high performance car with no warranty and turbos. When are the meets? I'd love to come out sometime and give you a ride, provided it doesn't conflict with the schedule.

Thanks again!
The new place is in Burke right off of Braddock Rd. Unbelievable was a townhouse costs now. At least I get 3 dedicated parking spots directly in front of my house! Nice change from my apartment complex.
I will be in town Monday-Wednesday, and classes are closed that week for holiday. Traveling to see family on Thurs-Friday but back Saturday very likely. A meet sounds great.

No pics right now, trying to find time to get some in the day, which is quickly waning
Bought the car off an owner that lived in TN. I really liked the Alcantara in my S4, so this was a nice option. Previous owner tried to get the car as light as possible, so it has no premium package (no leather, no sunroof, no power seats) and he wanted the Alcantara for grip. The option was called M Anthracite Alcantara, it ran $1000 and has the M racing colors sort of crosshatched through it. Unforunately it looks pretty bad if you take pictures of it with a flash. For some reason the flash really brings out the M colors and makes the rest of it look light gray, which it's not. So when I can get some pics without a flash in the daytime I'll definitely share!
