My Dear 1M friends,

Today, I reluctantly said goodbye to my sweet lady. Ohh how difficult it was 🥲

She is traveling from Va to Ca......at least now she can be out and about all year long 😊

Family responsibilities and 2 kids in college eventually took their toll, and we were in need of some financial relief.

I'd like to thank everyone in this forum. I've learned so much and always received great advice, suggestions, and general know how from all the members when needed.

It is truly a great community and I wish I could have met many of you in person.

I won't say goodbye.....but, I'll say see you later! As I know at some point, I'll find my way back into another 1M 😎

I wish you all safe travels and exciting drives!!!

Your friend,

Erik (Tornado1M)

The new owner has a lot to live up to. Tornado1M was/is a great poster!!

Hopefully that was in the sales contract....

Such a sad day.
Hopefully, the new owner will appreciate this beautiful machine.

Godspeed on your journey to the next 1M

Respect! After owning the 1M, you’ll always have the memories of it. Even now, while not driving it much, when i’m driving my daily, I frequently re-live the great 1M driving memories so far.

Sorry to hear this news, best wishes! And thank you for your enthusiasm over the past couple of years on our 1M forum!!!!
