I believe, they were building 50 and 26 cars sold so far. Anything low and flat looks like a Lamborghini.


Who told you about my green seats? They are made from about two dozen actual green cows found in a particular field on the shores of northern Ireland. VERY, VERY expensive. By the way, do you need some steaks? They have a slight tinge of green, but are otherwise okay.
I don't do green cows or green eggs and ham. Once married to a Irish woman has stirred me clear of green beer and shamrock shakes as well.

It's official I'm getting a restraining order against you from my mini. I feel it's no longer safe. My PO thinks its the safest move.

side note I think your murci is faster in a straight line.

Pretty good turnout today. Not as many cars as I thought would be there.

Tommy, Thanks for the seat time today. Your car is a beast! That's the most fun I've ever had behind the wheel of a car.

It said they lowered the reserve. I noticed the bids were not climbing to hit the reserve late in the day.

No this one's black .
With my 1D having a 1.3 crop, I have to be about 24" away to get the whole car .

My old 5D would have been great though. I may go back to a 5D2 or even up to a used 1DS....

That cool foggy gray background worked so well for that color SSc shoot. Great job with the coloring. Very outstanding pictures. You couldn't have prepped a stage in LA and done better.

Thank you. It was pretty cold outside that morning. I got there earlier than expected too and sat in the car for a few minutes.

We also used the blower on my car to keep us warm for a while. It worked.
