GypsySorcerer in the nero car, Amber in the maranello red and madformac in the argento.

We still have a giallo fly (yellow) left if anyone wants to join us. There are 4 passenger seats but no music in my car, I'm listening to the engine.

So many cars to choose from. I would love a kick ass sports car, this one specifically Saab Aero-X.



However, these extreme cars come with extreme insurance rates and extreme risk of tickets. The speed is pretty useless, especially here in CA.

So I might have to go with a classier ride:
2005 Bentley Continental


Although Bentley has this sweet diddy of a concept sports model:

Well, if it is a fantasy then I would say:


If you insist that I must have an engine then I would say, maybe this one:coupe_high.jpg '57 300SL

The truth is, though, if I had the money for my dream car, I might just take off around the world, and not drive at all.

I saw one once at a used lot in Hermosa Beach: it was iridescent white, with that red interior. It took my breath away, and I obviously haven't forgotten about it.
Imagine how much fun it would be to arrive at a restaurant, and then send the valet flying into the air when you open the car door.

See now I agree (out comes my practical side!) Where does the shopping go in these fast cars?? Where are you able to use the speed for which these things are designed? Insurance would be thru the roof, I'd be worried about leaving it on the street at night..so many sensible q's.Hmmm....If these cars reflect our inner personalities, then there's a lot of fast racey Ledgies about..haha.

I know!!!!!!!!

When I had my 62 Thunderbird Factory Roadster, my ex and I once grabbed these two girls we know and got all dressed up like swells from the late 50's early 60's and went a Mel Torme concert. The valet guy was laughing so hard at the phillies in their pillbox hats I have a pic of that somewhere

Here's my very dreamy dream car:


I actually hate driving. I used to love it, but now...fuk it. Let someone else deal while I kick it in back with a Martini and someone I love.
Life is so much easier this way.
Go here, go there...
