After a decade of serious lusting, five educational years on the forum and two years of hunting, Annabelle arrived from Texas today (yes, I am one of those guys who gives his cars female names; it makes me feel better with all the bathing and caressing and looking up her skirt and whatnot):
My quest began in earnest after encouraging words from many of the forum’s Tribal Elders: http://www.e9coupe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12023
Having submitted myself to the ways of the Car Gods, I learned that they can be cruel indeed. Late last year, I had to let a really good coupe slip through my fingers when non-car matters diverted my attention just as I was closing in on the sale: http://www.e9coupe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14437
And so, the Car Gods taunted me for a period of time, dangling in front of me a series of tantalizing, but flawed coupes. Perhaps, I had to endure these tribulations so as to enable various Sages of the e9, including HBChris, DuaneSword, Rob (the Hack Mechanic), Peter (CoupeKing), Mario (VSR1), Terry Sayther, Tim Mason, Sfdon, Stan, and Peter Coomaraswarmy, to impart to me bits of e9 wisdom. Or maybe the Car Gods were testing my mettle. In any event, I persevered.
Thereafter, I vowed to keep non-car matters in their rightful place and was rewarded with the scent of Annabelle: http://www.e9coupe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16520
Peter Coomaraswarmy, along with HBChris, allayed my initial fears, and guided me through the awkwardness of my initial meeting with her. Peter continued to play matchmaker, contributing generously of his time and energy while masterfully highlighting Annabelle’s most attractive features, as if whispering to me “you know you want her.”
Indeed, I was caught in her spell. As so it came to pass that I became the proud owner of a fine e9 coupe. Today is a good day to be a car guy.
Gotta run – Annabelle needs my attention. Cheers.
