Haha, wow I'm an idiot. I went to the Sherwood Island Meet in CT last month, and a friend of mine gave me a Root Beer Energy drink. I put it in my glove box, and left it there. The past few days the temperatures have been very cold. I went to my car today, opened my glove box, and this is what I found:







Remind me not to ever do that again lol...although I think my car gained an extra 15hp as an aftereffect of the explosion!

It's not as bad as it seems, nothing a roll of paper towel and a bottle of all purpose cleaner couldn't fix.

I've had coffee spilled into hard to reach areas such as the gap between the center console and the seats, now that was a pain in the "a$s" to clean~

Yeah, the good thing was that it was frozen, therefore easier to clean. I think there are still some frozen chunks in there, I should vacuum it out...

Rofl, I feel like all those AMG owners are in CALI and us lowly C Classers are all in NYC.

Anyway, thanks for reminding me not to leave any Sodas in the car.. ITS *&&^%$#@ freezing all of a sudden. Sunday at 2 00 pm it was beautiful; it was 49 degrees. and by 7 00 pm it went down to 28, and by 11 30 pm it was 17 degrees with a wind chill of -4.

ONLY IN NY.

Brutal weather. I have been driving around my little Spiagga. Heck, I was sweating today. Got a bit warm.

The root beer energy drink....Uhhh, how in the world does that taste? Seems kinda yuck.

Ohh, how did you earn the $7.50? You holding a sign at the corner or something? J/K

That is such an odd list! I suppose you can just be happy it wasn't too hot outside instead of too cold, otherwise it wouldn't be as easy to clean lol That's something that would happen to me at some point, except I put cans in my cup holder, not in the console
