Default And she shall be named Sally...

Some of you may remember the what to buy thread from a few weeks ago. Well the car arrived on Friday morning. Unfortunatly, it has been raining ever since so I have not had much chance to go out and play with her. The few spins around the block have been very fun. She makes the BMW 550 seem slow, not an easy feat.

Being blue, the kids have named her Sally. Hopefully, there will be at least one more nice stretch before she gets relegated to garage queen for the winter.

Thanks for the words of advice and encouragement during the process.

Derek

I have young children like you and the back seats are such a great bonus to have in such a high performance machine. May you enjoy 'sally' for many years !

Sally looks beautiful in blue. Don't put her away for the winter, buy some snow tires and drive all year long!
