I know this is preaching to the choir here, but I never get tired of looking at my 2007 Vantage. Art in motion. I've had it tucked away in the garage for the past few weeks as we get these violent thunderstorms every day here in Northern Virginia, but had to drive it to work today - and its like a new thrill again, every time I get in it. The curve of the rear fenders, and the depth of the paint - its just a sensuous machine that is as close to sex on four wheels as one can get, I think. My '07 has 6,900 miles on it now....prior owner had it for 7 years and only took it to 4,800 miles.

I seldom have to wash the thing......just dust it, clean the windscreen, harder to keep up with the wheels though. I run my challenger thru the touchless about once or twice a week, though. I've too many cars so not every one of them gets the premier treatment.

I just can't put a front plate on that car - have to take the ticket!

I was at AM of Washington this afternoon, Pieter and John were showing us the brand new Vanquish in Madagascar Orange they just got it. As I'm sitting in it, John hands me the key and says 'fire it up'.

It makes the most delicious sounds. SCHHWIINGGGG!! Now, where do I get $ 300 large?

And of course, I discovered that light scrape exiting a driveway did indeed damage the front ! I will have to take the pan off and try the hair dryer method, the lower lip is cracked, but nothing e6000 can't handle.
