Aside from my love of technology, I have been fascinated with cars, modifying them, and their culture since I was a child. So, due to the fact that I am suffering from a case of writer’s block today, I figured I would share some of my past projects and outline my current one, a 2017 BMW 750I.

2017 BMW 750I Xdrive

As I was moving to Colorado, my 2016 Subaru WRX STI, unfortunately, got into an accident, thus giving me a reason to upgrade! As I have owned several BMWs in my life, I felt it was time to get back into the driver’s seat of a German-engineered beauty. This time around, I wanted something a little more grown-up, while not sacrificing power. As I have loved the BMW 7 series ever since I watched the movie, The Transporter, I felt this was an excellent time to fulfill one of my dreams of owning one. I managed to find a low-mile 2017 750I with excellent service records near me, and it was a match made in heaven. While the car’s original MSRP was $107k, I got it for quite a bargain.

While to some, cars are just a method of getting from one place to another, those such as myself view them as your first (and most important) serotonin boost of the day while driving to work.
