We made it, the 10 Best List. Jan 2005 Car & Driver Magazine.

Although it's the 10 Best "Animals Driving Cars" List!


Look on the inside of the back cover, the last page, center picture. Sharon Moes, Lindenhurst, That's Wifey's Dog in Wifey's Car (Z3).

Here's the actual pic:

Ed, your wife's dog is sitting too close to the air bag...recommended seating distances for dog under 10 lbs is 36" or greater....

[Bimmer Nut Ed]

Yeah, he usually drives my car, no air bag!

Not to worry though, he was carefull. He complains about airbags all the time cause his reach is so short, you know, with those stubby little paws!

Here's a picture of my girlfriend's dog, Ben, peeking out from behind the bench seat in her dad's Ford pickup.

Backing up!




Nice pic TC, I think dogs are cool. Told the wife, "we'd prolly never be without one" when she married me so she knew what she was getting herself into. Yeah, now we got two rat dogs. I prefer bigger dogs, but the two we have, certainly have grown on me.

ha,ha...looks like he almost backed into something..=) Gotta love Sharon's "Winnie the Pooh" steering wheel cover..

How'd the bodywork on the Z turn out after the intersection incident?

The Z3 bodywork is just OK. Wifey just learned that water was getting into to trunk so it's got to go back in to be looked at!

Car's after accident repairs are never as good as original, I'm sure everyone knows that though. But overall, since we had the whole car painted at one time, and all the little dings and chip marks fixed up too, it is much nicer than before. Superficially the car looks new, we'll just see how long it lasts. Time will tell.
