....and I thought I was smart, buying a "unique" combination of red-on-red with my 2014 C7... It almost looks like the second-most popular color on this website!
Man, I hope this doesn't turn out like that time I bought a red Chevy Venture Warner-brothers edition minivan: It was the only one like it for like, five days. Then they popped up everywhere until I had to wade through the parking lot of red WB edition minivans, waving my remote and listening for the horn beep...

I just couldn't stand it any longer
The way I see it, lots of people take nicer stuff out to the Utah salt flats and run it. I'll wash the car in my garage when I get home today. I think I'll kick out of work early and go for a ride somewhere.
...and no, I'll probably not exceed 2000 RPM today. I'm just going to leave it in TOUR mode and take it easy. But, I just couldn't stand waiting any longer.

Sunny and 40 degrees
Hey, I've been enjoying some SUN and back roads here in Meridian Township today! Tires are warm, the rain the other day washed off the salt, and there are no bugs to go splat on the windshield overall, nice...I'm headed to Culver's off Marsh Road for some dinner right now and might even pull the Targa top just because I can...

So...uhm...I know I'm calling Mother Nature's bluff living in Michigan and all, but is winter finished? No snow in about 2 weeks, and the forecast going into a week from Friday is mostly 45-50 degree weather with some exceptions (tomorrow almost 65, Saturday around 35). No rain other than tomorrow.

Safety Car
Someone I know from CFOT reached out to me via email and it prompted me to check out what's up here. I also left Amway after 8 years and am at a Fortune 500 Automotive Supplier now as a Senior Programmer for their automation for finished goods inventory.
I still have my 2000 Jaguar XKR Convertible and 1998 Jaguar XJR Sedan. I added a 2007 Jaguar XKR Coupe last fall and a 2006 BMW X3 this winter. Once I figure out whether I'm adding another stall to the garage or adding an outbuilding out back, I'm looking to replace the XJR with a manual Aston Martin DB9 Volante.
I don't recognize a lot of the names, but hey, I sold my Vette 7.5 years ago lol.

"New" guy from Delta Township with a pewter 2000 C5. Plan is to get my car back out first of April. I have always figured by April 15th we're "safe", but this year looks early.
Westphalia's Cruise-In car show is June 13th. Looking to hit 1500 cars this year.

Hey TLS and 80srule! It's been a minute!
I left west MI in 2011 but am coming back this June.
Bought a house in Galesburg and start a new position at a large mid-american conference college located in Kalamazoo.
Bought a 2014 C7 Z51 M7 car from a fellow forum member and am waiting to get it shipped from PA to MI.
Hope to see y'all at one of the cars and coffee events this summer!
