so my wife said I needed a hobbie...

I don't think this is what she had in mind. I recently picked up an '02 R53 w/ 50k miles, electric blue, clean as can be, and babied every day. Today I spent 3 hours cleaning, waxing, etc... and the love affair has begun!

Your wife will soon call your hobby an obsession and complain that you don't spend enough time with her. Make sure to remind her that this is her idea.

Welcome and post pics!

Don't forget to post on the Electric Blue Owner's Club thread! Welcome aboard, and welcome to the obsession...or hobby, as you call it.

Just use the search function (upper right between Quick Links and Radio). Type in "Official Electric Blue Owner's Club". It'll come up first. Have fun with the 31 pages.

Sunday Drive

Just got back from a great Sunday drive in Wine Country, don't drink, but love to drive!
Here are some pics of my 02electricblu, white top, white caps, white wheels, and lots of mods - so fun on the twisties.

She'll also call it the money pit as you start the mods.
