Greg was the guy who convinced me to get my E92 back on the old Boards, so I have aged with him!

I'm at 50 now, so hoping to have a few more years in BMWs!

You expect to make it to 100?
You didn't expect to make it to 40? Damn. Was it due to health issue or less than ideal life choice in your younger years?

I'm not so sure. If I double my age at 38 I'm 76, and people die at 76 from natural causes. I'm not trying to be annoying I'm just saying, I think you got yourself a midlife crisis car

You can’t change what you’ve done but you can change what you do. Free advice from a “doer”

Teaching 21 year olds for a living sure does keep you feeling young.

And what quality of life will you have between 90-100? I don't think you will be tracking a GT2 RS at that age.
