I just jot my first Bimmer.
I must admit that I have been getting up early and going to the garage and staring at her.
Is that wrong?
What about radar detectors?
What should I do?

Do a search here on the forum, but I think you'll find V1 leading in popularity in our community, with Passport 8500 a close second.

And no long looks in the garage, parking lot, extra trips, etc all very NORMAL

Enjoy

If I'd spent as much time on my textbooks as I did on the brochure, I'd been a straight-A student.

I'd still say you've got your priorities straight though!
I was doing the same a few years ago too!

I am a new owner also, and it's okay to stare at her while she is in the garage. Hey, I've even given mine a name. I'm still trying to find out if it's healthy to think about your car all day at work? I can't wait to leave work but for a different reason nowadays

You should never stare at radar detectors.

My wife and I travelled 2000 miles through Italy and France after ED last summer. The NAV lady became a third passenger in the car. We named her Ruth.
