Goodbye Mustang
Well, the time has come to say goodbye to the mustang. With the addition of the Lotus to our family, the mustang was sort of pointless. So, we decided to sell it and get something a little more practical. After all, what's the use in having two red, stick-shift sports cars? I wanted to get something with 4 doors and lots of room to spread out, but not so much room that I was driving a (what I call) "granny" car. After many hours of searching online, we decided a used BMW was the way to go. They are reliable and seem to hold up well over time....according to Matt. We found some online and went to see and test drive them. And, after a long week of searching we came home with a 2001 BMW 530i. It's SUPER nice. It has all the bells and whistles you can think of. Some of the stuff it does I didn't even realize they had in 2001 (like its centuries ago....). For instance, it has rain sensing windshield wipers.... I thought that was way cool in the recent Houston floods we've been having. Other notable features are the power head rests, power steering wheel adjustments, and in-car garage door opener. Sorry I don't have any pictures yet, but maybe one day. In case you're wondering, its a light sky-blue color, called "steel blue," with tan leather interior and even wood grain. Oh my, I can't believe my car has wood grain....maybe it IS a "granny" car....
