bloozemanAZ could not agree more - miss that drive and the music that goes with it! In order to get the km's driving in the car up, I've taken to early Sunday morning drives. Yesterday I went out west and onto one of the busiest freeways and it was deserted. While the speed limit is 100 km/h, I had a ball on some of the sections. Slowing the car down and then letting it rip, repeatedly. On big sweeping turns, actually cutting the corner across multiple lanes. I was keeping an eye out for zombies from The Walking Dead as it felt like I was in a movie.

I've replaced it with a Starbucks run every morning (drive through with a mask). And then my wife, the boys and I go find a deserted picnic area on weekend days somewhere in the middle of the mountains—today's drive was 180 miles round trip. Of course, you have to have a bit of fun along the way so we tried a few launches and nailed a 0-60mph with 4 people (kids are 13 and 6 so one of them weighs as much as a Big Mac) in 2.92s—these M-cars never cease to amaze! |

Absolutely agree, the only red herring in the self-isolation within the M850i is encountering a police officer pulling me over for potentially violating the stay at home Executive order. I don't have a face mask so hopefully he or she does.
