C55 vs Dust

Hey Guys,

I just got my C55 for a few months, and haven't really done THAT much spirited driving, and tonight I went for a great run! No traffic, running on the FDR to BQE to home, best drive ever, I was racing dust, and I beat dust! haha

such a fun car to drive. I love it!

Haha, the FDR didn't scare you Gary? So many potholes its impossible to drive fast. You've got to try the Jackie Robinson, its an incredible twisty S road.

No matter what I don't think a black C55 will outrun the dust...always ends up you needing to clean it after about a week or two!
