Guilty....

But not when there's a chance of dropping something on my toes. Don't want to mess up my pedicure, ya know?

Flip flops are better than crocs, though. I'm sure we can all agree on that.

Considering e46m for 2nd car/daily driver. Any benefits of smg? Drove one and I'm not sure if it would be fun for something different or if it would get annoying.

SMG has been known to be problematic with SMG pump & reply failures.
I believe the pump is about $2K, I almost picked up a 6 spd before the M5.

edit: The E46 M3 had a huge recall with rear subframe cracking, make sure the rear subframe has been reinforced.

Why not use the OT forum and finally give that sucker some life? Politics and religion are banned (fortunately) so we can take that crap there. Punks who complain need to know the bookmark feature on their browsers and get of themselves.
Go get the captain and see what he can do for us!
