Thanks Mel! LOL, Your ride is awesome! Always have loved your AW whip!

So, my first impressions...
1.) Man all this power is very different! After a drive to work this morning my body was still tingling from my adrenaline on the straight aways.
2.) The grin on my face is as if it is stuck to my face.
3.) I can't seem to study/work, cause all I can think about is where I can unleash the whip at.
4.) This is the first SMG I've ever driven. Am I doing this right? LOL
5.) There are so many involved features. It's amazing how the Power button changes the whole feel!
6.) My gas was at half tank last night. After lunch today its at a quarter tank, and I only work 20 miles away from home. LOL!
7.)I need a Valentine Radar...
8.) I am going to get into sooo much trouble!
9.) I owe my other half a huge Rock now.

10.)If I can do it again, I would!
