Random Thoughts - Part Deux [NO POLITICS]

[Sapphireho]

It's almost 4 am and I've been sitting here for an hour in the dark drinking my last round of Draino before I go get my ass scoped out. They better have good drugs, I'm not a cheap date. It's going to be a bright shiny day!

Is it?

Without regard to type, style, or make should anybody mention a vehicle there will be one guy that will pop up and say "I have been thinking of getting one of those".

The neighbours at the beach have their son up. He has a BMW M Coupe. I can't wait to go and take a look at it later. I've always had such a weird fondness for them

Just today walking down our main high street when a Blue BMW M Coupe goes by, my wife (zero interest in cars) asks me what was that? I ask why it drew her attention and she tells me its a strange looking car... I must say that it actually looks better now.

They're so cool. I think it's because they're so horribly proportioned that I adore them

I think that rarity is helping on the looks front.. but the proportions are strange to say the least. I knew someone who bought one in yellow!! Colour to distract from the shape or just added to the riot of challenges that is the M coupe.

They look like a giant roller skate. I like them too for the same reason.

Strap some laces across the hood and you've got a goofy art car. Never sat in one. Wonder if I would fit.

I did a quick price check on them this morning. Looks like 60k is the going rate for a clean one with low kms.

Then checked the production numbers. Didn't realize there were so little made

Future collectible? Impossible to predict. I'm skeptical of any car with modern electronics.
