Its a Smart Roadster. The same company that makes the 4/2

I saw an AM DB11 getting on the highway in Boston. It was loud and awesome.

I saw a Hellcat, stuck at a red light. I was disappointed at how un-loud/awesome that was.

I admire the sales manager's commitment to turquoise.

I'm not as big of a Porsche guy as all of you so forgive my ignorance... is that Mexico Blue? I've seen a few people get that color as an alternative to smurf blue on the M3/M4, seems like one of the "in" colors right now.

Oh, you've noticed all the Focus RSs, too?

What an ugly as sin color. In a few years, a lot of people are going to feel very bad about the choices they made today. And many of the rest of us will be looking at smaller pools of "acceptable" used cars.

This is what's holding me back on being dead set on Krypton Green for the Camaro.

For Porsche, anyway, it appears to be called Miami blue, and its a $3K option.
