Not off to a good start...

I've had the car for 29 days a little over 500 miles. Been babying it like crazy, parking far & away, avoiding big rigs, no hard driving etc. and I just keep getting minor problems.

1st: Blown LED circuit-board(?) on the driver's side (had to order the entire tail-light assembly to get a new board), 2: Navi wouldn't pop up @ start, & now the 3rd: Went to my sister's graduation in North Carolina, came back to find my front passenger tire is flat.

Nothing major, I still love the car more than Marisa Miller's body, just tired of dealing with these minor distractions. Just venting.

Sorry to hear about the minor issues. Hopefully, just bad luck as most of us have trouble free monsters

I know how you feel about things keep going bad, man. Good luck!

I'd still take Marisa Miller's body, though.

I have noticed that the more one takes care of ****, the more they **** up or something happens to it. Since I stopped babying it so much things are great, no problems!

it's the opposite for me. I normally park far and be real careful with my car. One day I decided to be lazy and park in a "tighter" than normal spot, i got a ding on it. fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Yea, both were covered. It just sucked having a new toy & having to drop it off for consecutive days @ service. But my SA is super cool & fast so it's all good.

Sooo tempted to, but I'm playing it safe & by the book. Got a buddy with an 2007 RS4, and a guy on my bball team that just got an 2010 M3. Looking to do a track day with them in the future .

Tell me bout it bro'. I think she gets robbed every year for the Maxim Hot 100. Just saw some segment on her boxing for her workout & my God . She's my motivator to hit the gym harder.

Wish I had the brass to do that. I'm just super protective of possessions.

Nothing to worry about.... once you start hammering it, the power of the C63 will make up for all that

AMEN!

Though, I found there is that fine line between driving a car like it was meant to be driven and trashing the car. Just gotta know where the line is.
