well, let's see...

I've sat in a Vega, I've ridden in a Gremlin, and even once owned a Pinto (but it was only for a couple of months).

We've done this thread before. Batman, that is quite a list. A Carrera GT and an Enzo? Quite a feat if factual. My most intresting would have to be what turned me into a Porsche-a-phile in the first place, many years ago. It was a 924 that was remotored with a 5-cyl Audi Turbo. That was quite a ride.

I have a friend that's a manager at the local Audi/Porsche/VW dealer and gave me a call telling me that they just got one in and that I can come by and sit in it.

When he gets the next one I'll remember to get a pic of me siting in there.

Also, I met the CEO of Ultra-tech stepper and he has 9 ferraris, one of which is a Enzo and a F50GT (1800lbs and 800hp). He let me sit in the Enzo at the Stanford Concorso.

If u look like a nice guy and are clean and respectful people might be easier on letting u rub ur arse on their seats.

My mom has this old 1970 cadillac Deville convertible... cherried.

that thing is sweet, but at about 8 mpg its definitely not a daily driver

i used to drive this old grey market 82 BMW 735i 5speed, did a full leather swap, and other work... that thing was a rocket until it blew


now im driving a crappy 93 f150 ford with 276899 ~~ miles..

UNTIL I GET MY SVX!

The best ride of my life in a car was a Westfield Megabusa, while being driven in anger. Wow.

Lee, I occasionally drove a 60's VW bus ON THE AUTOBAHN!! when I was in Germany saving the country from the eminent Russian invasion. Many more bullets of sweat!
