Car turned <font color="red"><b>50</b></font> yesterday! She's running like a champ still too. Just dropped her off for her last *free* maintenance this morning with 8 qts of 0w-40 M1.

Checked out a black/black R32 the dealer had on the lot while I was there. Nooice!! Those seats are wicked comfortable. They also had an '04 Jetta GLI on the floor; guess they have Recaros in them this year. The one I saw had cloth seats however I did not get a chance to inquire if the same seats could be ordered in leather. Not too shabby I guess, but the R32 was beautiful.

One last obligatory pic of my baby.

I hope they aren't putting in 8 qts., or she's not going to be running like a champ for much longer.
