Yeah if my car is running too smoothly im bringing it in cause its not normal. I can wait to get my car so I can obsess like you guys are.

I have lived in the same subdivision for 15 years. This past week they have decided to replace our streets. So this morning workers came by our house with cement cutters and cut out the curbs in front of my driveway. They are being replaced with new curbs that have very little rise in them so the cars dont bottom out like they used to when someone drove too fast into my driveway. My car is due in two weeks. Its almost like my streets are being redone for the arrival of my new 550. Again, when i mentioned this to my wife she looked at me like im crazy.
