My car isn't "new" anymore

Not only did I pass 1,000 miles today, today was the first time my car saw rain. It's officially not new anymore. :(

But I love it even more now than I did the day I got it.
I know, useless post. But thought I'd share my special day with you guys.

I guess that makes mine an antique with over 26K having driven in rain, storms, snow, you name it! I still consider my baby new.

windows down, fresh air, nice breeze, music on enough to hear the exhaust and music. it's all a perfect harmony.
