LOL...singing music in the car. The heavier stuff is for when I run (I feel like they are yelling at me...run fatass, RUN!) LOL

Poor guy has been through a lot.
That poor man! Hopefully his luck has turned around!

Yeah...I can dream. It's a pretty car...just not what I would ever spend on a vehicle!

If you think about it, though...for the price (80-100k depending on year and options) is a bargain considering the performance specs. It's an amazing piece of kit that challenges most of the "supercars" on the road.

I'm sure it is, I just don't "need" an amazing piece of kit ...lol

I do like to admire it though!

A performance car for me is one that can haul around 6-7 kids and a few hockey bags (or baseball or soccer stuff), has a decent sound system and leather seats. That was my criteria when I bought my last car.

LOL...Tim Taylor will have to get a box of tissues. The only thing I added was a little pink air freshener and a hitch cover.

Holla!
I still need to see Ironman and Superman.

Lone Ranger looks good too.
I'm looking forward to seeing that too. The one movie, I hadn't any interest in seeing, "White House Down" I went to see it last night and very much enjoyed it. Darn fun ride. There are a good number of movies I'm looking to see this summer. I wasn't going to bother with "Lone Ranger", but I saw the actor who is playing the lead character on, Jimmy Kimmel, last night and he's so likable, I just might go see it after all, maybe. Seeing Pacific Rim on the 13th.

I am starting to look at cars now. My truck is almost paid off and I am tired of driving a big truck to work daily. I test drove a Nissan Murano..nice but lots of road noise. I also test drove a Lexus...yeah..sigh..I want to but my frugal living may or may not allow me to buy it..but i really like it.
