Finally, someone here is mentioning a nice car! :-) All that talk of
those little Porsches, Audis and BMWs was becoming rather nauseating.
Note: I've got a '67 VW Beetle, but at least it never pretended to be
anything that it wasn't, unlike those overpriced, pretentious,
European cars.  I'll bet that some people hot-rodded VW beetles, and
tinkered with the handling, to outperform Porsches without spending
what it cost to buy a Porsche.  It's funny that some people would pay
more for a little Mercedes than a big, comfortable, and solidly built,
Cadillac or Lincoln would cost.
  I'll be good - next post will be about computers.
I promise. 
Me too.
