Talking

He's actually a friend of my friend. I told him to move away because my passenger door was open and I didn't want his gull wing door to hit me while I was on the passenger side.

He's actually a famous rock star but I'm supposed to not disclose who he is because he's also my friend's client.

Seven wins by a Nose

If this was a horserace, I think my '79 Seven would come out the winner by a nose! Based on value, the Ferrari TR60's wheel is probably worth more than my whole car. Oh well, rich dudes = expensive cars, blue collar guys = thrills driving a Seven!!!

I would dearly love just to have heard that TR60 going down the road with the foot on the floor or perhaps through a tunnel just to hear those echos...

Sweet pics!

Btw, don't feel bad. You probably have more miles on that 7 and the smiles to go with them than the TR ever will.

They both looked in their mirrors and thought "Where can I get one of those!?"

No you have it wrong....you just see these trucks clean all the time because you have to wash off all the dirt WEEKLY from all the Mud'n they go through on the weekends. Sheesh!!

The Redline and the GXP are not regular cars, people react to my SKY the same way I have seen people react to Midas Hands KG Elise.

Both of these GM cars keep up with all the cars in their class.
