Man, funny what love will do to you. I love this car so much, here's what's happened, that's NEVER happened until the M2C:

1. I've hand-washed a car for the first time in 20+ years. The last time I washed a car was probably as a junior in high school, for a fund-raiser. (And, BlkSVT , before you inevitably ask, no, I wasn't wearing a bikini like in "Bring It On")

2. As a mechanically challenged Asian, I learned how to pry open my center console, broken apart some gadget that isn't meant to be broken apart like that, to replace the bottom bracket on the wireless charger to fit the iPhone XS Max. I even learned how to put together different nuts and bolts and used screw drivers and hex wrenches to put on a tow hook license plate mount. It's like I'm overcoming my Asian handicap!

3. I vacuum'ed the inside of the car. I have never vacuumed a car. In college, I borrowed my cousin's Supra for a week, and after I returned it, he just turned away disgusted and wouldn't talk to me. Later, my aunt told me, "You know, when you use someone else's car for a week, you don't leave wrappers everywhere, and if you eat chips like a pig, you vacuum up the crumbs."

Damn, I love this car!

Your response made me think of Eddie Murphy in Trading Places...
