Congrats Mick! I saw your letter in the magazine at the bookstore yesterday at lunch. Hey, at least I recognized the name of someone who's... um... famous.

Nice, I saw it this morning. They did put the 430 in as one of the most important/ greatest/ whatever of all time article. I think they should have had the Elise over the Boxster though.

Congratulations Mick.

I just saw your comments in Automobile tonight, recognized your name, and almost started a new thread - since I hadn't seen this one. I should pay more attention.

My S190 was featured in an article in the oct. 2000 issue by Mark Gillies. We met up at Gingerman Raceway in Michigan. It was great fun hanging out the door of a minivan with the photographer snapping pics while Gillies drove. I was smiling that day and still do everytime I twist the key!
