Now I need to accelerate my project to reshape the landing in my front garage so that it can fit longer cars.

Got the service report on my car. What a weird service! Seems odd and somewhat sketchy that all of that stuff is available via 3rd party service based in (checks notes) Romania, but I’m sure it’s fine.

Yeah, I saw that too. But hey, it seems to work. I don't know what kind of hack they are using.

Not counting my chickens yet, but I feel confident things will work out ok. These guys sell and ship ridiculously nice cars all over the country so they are quite used to this.

That is a real beauty and the exhaust is probably pretty badass !!! Congrats !!

My neighbor has a vintage 911 Targa. (I’ll have to grab a photo so you folks can ID it). I can hear it coming a block away.

Love it. Just love it. Flying great colors and the bicolor wheels are really nice as well.

Time for it to go to its namesake town.

I can see doing something similar in the next two or three years, so can't wait for your initial impressions.

Debating whether to tell FC that he’s got the 1992 Taurus SHO appearance package with this color combo before he signs the papers.

Boston? Or Oxford…
