I'm thinking someone messed up the order... they asked for a chicken cutlet, not a chicken Cutlass.

Total is the lead and named tenant in my office building.

They have parked a Lotus E21 Formula One car in the lobby, which is last season's model.

No velvet ropes! You didn't get someone to take your pic while you sat in it? What's wrong with you? At least tell me you yanked on that metal thing blocking the seat to see if it would give?

Reminds me of the Renault F1 Experience I stumbled upon on the Champs Elysees in Paris. I have the pix at home in iPhoto somewhere. They had a bunch of F1 cars and maybe 10 F1 engines on display. Very cool.



Oh, and I saw one of these the other day in rush hour traffic:


(not my photo)

THIS is what I think GM should have come out with first instead of the Volt. Having it slot in as a Cadillac would have made the price much more palatable than a $40k+ ChevyPriusWannabe.

Anyways, the ELR looked great.

I saw that in spring of 2000! I also saw the MB F1 car that same spring in the MB museum in Stuttgart.
