OUCH!... was that car the victim of a joy ride turned into a sacrifice? Or should I seriously consider installing a 3rd radiator (j/k)?

Hey Eli!

No offense but I like your new avatar better than the old one. Is that you?

Cheers.

Thanks, and yes that was me.... The new one is of my car and the gal (Emma) who hosted our spokes model spot at Bimmerfest 2005. She is the g-friend of the actor Chad Lindberg who is better know as "Jesse" from the Fast and Furious....
