    Sitting here looking at it. Cover on it as it is pollen season for the next three months. New off the lot w 18 miles on it, 1/13/09. 82,000. Not a scratch or door ding on her, except for the front, of course. I would travel to an original owner meet, if centrally located. Miss you guys. I miss what we had in the beginning. Thankful to have been a part of it. One of the best times in my life. Great community. Charlie. Stay the course. Keep the faith.

    P.S. Ran a 2012-14 M3 (V8) Coupe to a door handle to door handle draw a couple of weeks ago, 75 to almost 160, when he backed out of it. Most satisfying race I have ever had. I am inside his M3 head now. Unshakable. Forever. My $25,000 car. It doesn't get any better'n that.

    So, no one answered my question. Am I considered an original owner, or does that honor belong to some corporate weasel?

    You were not the first title recipient and therefore purchased it used. So no, you would not be an original owner sadly.
