My wife was in the beast once...to pump the brakes. She thought it was WAY to ugly to be in...plus no AC.....That's when it was all one color....She don';t even like to walk by it now I think.

my wife was in mine today...needed her to work the brake pedal so I could bleed the new wheel cylinder I had put on...after about 3 times of up, and down w/ nothing, I checked what she was doing with the pedal still down....low and behold she was working the clutch pedal !!!!!

note to self.....dont let her drive it if she's gonna use the clutch as a brake !!

Dang! I must have a good wife!! She will jump out of the bimmer and into one of my old trucks anytime. I quess she has realized that they aren't going anywhere.
She really likes them when its time to go to the garden center and load them up with dirt. A/C really helps with their attitude towards our obession.
