For the love of the C32

It's kinda wierd when you mention in public how much you love your car. People tend to give you strange looks..

I mean, the day of delivery was like uughh.. I was soo damn nervous..

The best thing about work is driving there, and later that day driving home. I often catch myself driving an alternate route just to spend a bit more time driving in my car. Being able to cruise slowly and when needed unleash this beast of a car is a combination I haven't experienced in a car before.

When having my car parked, I usually turn around after like 35 meters, and lock it one more time just to be on the safe side. And when coming back (I usually look for a spot to park where not many cars are found) I walk around to car to see if anyone has done any damadge to it..

When eating in a restaurant, I usually try to park it in a place where I can keep an eye on it..

I wash my car almost every saturday.. no matter if the sun is shining, theres rain or snow hehe..

Even though I have a dealership in my city, I drive a long way to goto a dealership outside of town where I know the people working on my car, just to be sure my C32 not gonna be abused for any joyrides..

I once hit a curb with my rim a while ago. Nothing too serious. The same week I bought a new one and the 'used' one has now a nice spot in my appartment heh. Same for my AMG springs, being replaced by the awesome Brabus springs.

I never want to imagine how I react if my car gets hit or even totaled..!

My mom calls me nuts, but I just love that damn car!!

haha...i usually back in and out of a parking space 4-5 times to make sure there is enough spacing on either side of the car to not get slammed by an errant door. i also carry a spare towel in the trunk to wipe the car down 'just in case'.
