I must be having my period  ;D...'cause then I saw this and I got all emotional  :-[  http://youtu.be/ZLNJ_RLWlmI ...Chris Harris reduced to 4 words.  (don't listen to the music, listen to the "MUSIC")...it makes me want to cry.  :'(  Is this what the flat plane crank Mustang will sound like?  Lordy lordy want soooo bad.  This and the 240Z in the other video...oh what sweet sweet sounds.... :love:

No.  Nothing sounds like a flat 12 banger.  A flat plane crank is something different altogether.

On my way to work this morning, I saw a Maserati Gran Turismo with the top up. Nice car. Then at lunch, I saw a Citroen 2CV.  Quirky car with lots of character (not much on power). Given the choice, I'd take the Citroen.  I would need to have a stiff tail wind going down hill to get a speeding ticket with! The Maserati, well...

Tonight I dream about French wine, brie and baguettes!

I often think of how cool it would be to motor around in a Citroen DS

fantastic quirky machines...

ran into a guy with a Maserati Gransport the other day with my Alfa. Good chat, really nice guy. Man that thing sounds brutal. Do want so badly.
If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

I almost bought a perfectly restored DS21 for $5k about 25 years ago. I tried it a couple of times and loved it. Money and storage were both issues, so I ended up not getting it.

Difficult to impossible to find in that shape now and getting pricey too.
On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.
