So I woke up around 6:30 AM EST, on 27 JAN 09. And I'm still awake. Over the past 24+ hours I've traveled about 3700 miles with my wife and 2 dogs, dropped them at the hotel, took care of some administrative BS, and picked up my car!
I just wish I could enjoy it, I'm completely numb, the lights are on, but nobody's home. Hopefully tomorrow will be more exciting/eventful.
The good news is that the car traveled the miles well, and wasn't damaged along the way. The tires were low and it needed to be vacuumed and the tank needed some super bleifrei, but aside from that all was well.
Now I just need a euro front plate holder in BS to match the car. Hopefully I can find a dealer willing to speak english to me, and has the parts available.
