Got here late last night.

First trip to Cars and Coffee this morning.

Wicked quick car and with upgrade and sport exhaust all fears of poor exhaust note were gone.

Thanks to Shelby for helping me find this, particularly when he got nothing out of the deal . These are hard to come by at present in spider form.

:thumbsup Beautiful. One of the few cars that would be a must in bold colors for me, the agressive look of the volcano orange and red go perfect with the lines. Enjoy!

Bad ass car!

I was thinking of doing an extensive comparo and telling the Mayor that the Brits are kicking the Italians ass, but he might have a seizure. Actually , there are many similarities, as you know, to the 458. Some better, some not.

I found it amusing when I checked to see if you had updated your McLaren thread that someone revived the 458 ECU freak out thread you had in which the Expert told people that the only people that criticize the 458 are people that don't own one, and it is otherwise flawless. :lol

Love the new ride. Terrific color choice too. No real 'down side' of the roadster as I've read (chassis stiffness, noise, etc) so great going there. I spend some time on Fchat, and loved the above-posted question for you! Will be awaiting the impending seizure.

I love that you beat me to the "beat down" almost every time. Does EP even have a driver's license? If so, does he need it?

I don't know, but most states retest senior drivers. I bet if EP get retested he is going to rent a car so that he doesn't have to put on any milage on his own cars.

"I was thinking of doing an extensive comparo and telling the Mayor that the Brits are kicking the Italians ass, but he might have a seizure."

More like a massive stroke! Imagine if you write something positive about the Spyder AND the GT, it could be fatal for the Mayor.
