So my pride and joy has been in the shop for the last 3 weeks after getting into a fight with a pothole and losing, my rental car for the last 3 WEEKS!!!!!, has been a mazda 5. I absolutely love this car ( my E60, not the mazda ). Everything about it, the look, the feel, the quality, the power, the list goes on and on. I was soooo excited yesterday on my way to the shop it was incredible. Like a 5 year old kid on christmas eve. I even found myself waiting for a parking spot in front of the barber shop so I could look at it while I was getting my haircut today. that's all, just wanted to share

Three weeks seems like an eternity when you're waiting for your car. Glad you've been reunited.
