This car climbed Mount Washington

BoosTonian · 09-06-2015, 09:28 PM

Hello all, so took my first official road trip with my new f80, and decided to go with a buddy to my old stomping grounds in the north country of New Hampshire. Originally we were just going to go and drive the Kangamangus Highway (very scenic highway), but I decided to do something a little more daring and climb Mount Washington!

I had never done it before, so it was quite the treat. Was a little scary in some of the drop-off spots (no guard rails and very narrow roads with traffic going in both directions), but we made it to the summit and it was gorgeous! Took some pics of the ///M around Sugar Hill, NH and of course at the peak of Mount Washington (elevation 6,233 feet, highest in the northeastern U.S.)! Not sure if any other F80s have climbed Mount Washington, might be the first? Would definitely be pretty cool! (maybe the first 2016 M3 if anything

)

Oh, and we still drove the Kangamangus and got to open her up a little. Not too much though, breaking her in slowly. Good news is after the trip I got home with 918 miles on the clock so almost there! Enjoy the pics!

I definitely take it for granted being around it so much! Although I still haven't been to Vegas and really want to go!
