Hey forum,

I'm getting depressed. I've been waiting for my car to arrive here in sunny AZ for eight weeks. I check the forum 10-15 times a day, you guys keep me going. I've learned so much from you all.

Proudly serving in AZ,

Miller

Reading the forums and checking your order status will just make the wait seem longer.

Maybe check out the local MB and Audi dealers to check out the competition to see what your missing or to confirm you made the right choice.

I feel your pain....hang in there.

I was going to suggest thinking about something else, but since I can't do that myself, I couldn't begin to tell you how.

Stay cool

From experience, think how long you've waited rather than how long to go, time passed seems quicker!!!

old proverb

Time flys like an arrow, Fruit flys like a banana !!!

HA HA


hang in there

Maybe, but when I was a kid, that didn't stop me from shaking presents under the tree and pontificating about the contents. I still do some of that. Waiting and anticipating is part of the experience. Group therapy from a forum like this eases the pressure and enhances the oncoming sunrise. You folks have definitely added to my pride of ownership. Thanks.

Once you have the car back, it's like it never left. I also just noticed that you picked yours up 2 days before I picked mine up. I'm so glad that here in Georgia we don't have to have front plates so I could keep my Zoll plate on. I've gotten tons of "nice touch"'es from people who see the plate on the nose.

Just dropped mine off in Frankfurt on the 24th. The forums help, I visit the dealers a few times a week to just look at the cars. I collect pictures on the web.

Try researching supplies like Zaino, leather care stuff, wheels, tires, shift kits, euro reflectors...etc. It's tough though, hang in there.

hi miller, a few weeks goes by like a blink of the eye. how about taking a short trip/cruise to sunny carribean and get a great tan to match your new car?
i pass time by cleaning out the garage, the house and even the office many times, schedule appointments round the clock and reading all sorts of infomation i can get my hands on.
i also worked on my abs to have a better looking body to match my car. hahaha!!

i enjoy reading every new owners' excitement and learning of their anticipation, i was there a month ago and its just seem like yesterday. i can now open up my e60 as freely as i wish.
