My Daughter goes to the University of Wisconsin in Madison. Every time I am there I am amazed at how beat up every vehicle is that parks or drives around (new or old). I can't imagine how bad it is in NYC.. but, you know- it's just a car and they are meant to be driven. All of those cosmetic damages can be repaired at some point if you were to keep the car long term and have it be a collectible. I am not in the mode of having a collectible...even if it was- any cosmetic things can always be fixed. I have a client that restores Ferrari's and some of them are in pretty rough shape. The end game is to enjoy the car, drive it, have fun in it, make memories and not stress over it. I am having to embrace that attitude with mine. Slowly but surely I am learning to relax and enjoy.
Mine got hit in less than 24 hours while parked in the street overnight and I haven't given a single damn ever since. It was almost a blessing.

Wow, that's nice!

I hear ya.


I kept my last one - 2013 red convertible - in the best condition I could, mechanically and cosmetically, for the six years I owned it.

Having said that...a week after I bought it, a kid rear-ended me on the Beltway here and it spent three weeks in the shop (body parts for '13s were hard to come by in Spring 2012). At that moment I finally stopped holding my breath over the thing, relaxed and started really enjoying it. :lol:

Looks Great! Window Tint really does change the look the car! :headbang:
I should start using my Nikon for pics. Cell phones just don’t do the car justice.

Nice!

The cup was bothering me, removed it, and he road stain, dropped the background sharpness to make your beautiful car pop a bit more, shifted the overall color a touch to the warmer side.

Didn’t notice the cup until you mentioned it.

Good job :thumbsup:
