Have you ever driven a car that costs over 100k? You should. Before today I would have answered that question with "negative." (That's what I say instead of no.) Fortunately, today I was able to change my "has driven a super expensive car" status to "affirmative" (You probably already guessed that's what I say instead of yes.)

BMW was doing a super awesome promotion where they let normal people drive super expensive cars. And, for everyone that test drives one of these cars they donate $10 to support the Olympics. (Do you see what a giving person I am? I totally supported the Olympics.)

| This is a very gadgetudinous car. Look at all the cool gadgets all over. |
The car had all sorts of fancy features. When I first pushed the button to start the car it just made the steering wheel move up and down. Luckily, I'm a super genius so I figured it out in under 5 minutes. (Don't make fun. You already know
I'm not fancy.) When I backed up the car a fancy little screen came up that showed me all the obstacles behind me. It had a warning saying that I should not use only that screen to back up, but I totally used only that screen to back up. (I'm glad I got that off my chest.)

| Don't I look so good behind that wheel? |
The best part was when I took it on the freeway. I pushed that gas pedal down and we really felt it get up and go. It was 0-60 in like 4 seconds.
No, I lied. That wasn't the best part. Do you remember the
awesome guy that sent me pics of him with a BMW? I sent him pictures of me in this car. That was the best part.
Wasn't it so much fun? I'm glad that you got to drive one too. What a good time. Now we just need to buy one...
ReplyDeleteI love this idea, I think fancy restaurants should start giving money to the Olympics for allowing me to try some of their gourmet food
ReplyDeleteI love that you remembered to text that guy back with photos of you in an awesome car!
ReplyDeleteLOVE that you sent the BMW guy a pic! Did he respond??
ReplyDeleteI had a friend let me drive his Maserati once... I don't know how much it cost, but it was WAY fun to watch everyone else admire the car.
I thought about saying something like "Marissa said you would like this." Since that's who he thought I was married to, but I decided that was a bit much. So I did it with no text, just like he did to me. There was no response. It was a little disappointing.
ReplyDeleteThe last paragraph made me laugh so hard!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are so fancy now.
I totally rode in a porsche a couple weeks ago. It was a little bit of a rocky ride and I wish I had been the one driving so I could shift smoother.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy that you went on a fun ride. Sorry I am a poor sport and didn't want to go. It is a good thing you have Zack.
ReplyDeleteyou can write about just about any topic, and crack me up every time : ) thanks for the smiles today.
ReplyDeleteDid you get a cute hat like Zack did? Everyone needs a cute BMW hat.
ReplyDeleteMom,I totally got a BMW hat. I had it on backwards when I wore it home. I was totally hip. Robyn rolled her eyes and then I took it off.
