Very cool car!

a little advice for new car folks. to keep the stress of new ownership to a minimum, I highly recommend the following:

take a small nail file and go out to the new wheels and put a scratch on it yourself. doesnt have to be much, just enough to break that virginal mindset one has when a new car is involved.

because:
1) its much better to be the first one to ding dent or scratch your new ride. prevents homicidal incidents with unknowns
2) after that first one, even when someone else does ding or dent you (and you KNOW they will), its less painful since theres already one there.....and its yours.
3) you spend alot less time looking for 'safe' parking, since, as said before....the first one is already there.

I know it sounds cruel and the like, but trust me, you'll eliminate TONS of self induced stress by just getting that first buggered up spot out of the way quickly.

mi dos centavos.

(btw, love the coopers)
