just got back from Niagara Falls

i took the SVX on a short trip to Niagara Falls - it was nice to open it up on the highway.

my passenger seat speed warning alarm went off several times, but it was pretty smooth driving. this sucker is definitely a highway cruiser, right at home hustling along at 85mph. i was the fastest car on the highway the whole way home, except for a Saturn Ion that went screaming by me at what must have been 100mph! i was waiting for body panels to come flying off behind him.

here's a pic of me-

here's another really cool pic. this is the actual picture, no effects. i ran it through Photoshop only to lower the resolution so it wouldn't take forever to load.

i busted her doing 80 on the way up, though. i told her she can go as fast as she wants, but if she gets a ticket, then i won't be paying her car insurance anymore. its high enough as it is, with all those Fast n' Furious goons wrapping their WRX's around telephone poles.

Ok, so I don't regularly post. Doesn't mean I'm dead. Landshark, too bad I missed you by a couple of days. My wife and I flew out to the Niagara region from Edmonton for a little R&R Sept. 28 - Oct. 03. Damn cold out east! Anyway, I only spotted one SVX the entire trip (a pearlie with Ontario plates). Believe me, from the 38th floor of the Embassy Suites at Niagara, you can spot damn near anything. What a view!

I haven't been around the site for a while since I've had my '96 LSI in storage for the summer so it wouldn't get jealous of my new '03 Boxster. Getting time to put the Porsche away and start enjoying the AWD again. Life is just full of difficult choices.

yeah, too bad i missed you - i didn't see any SVX's that trip. i had a Porsche and an SVX at the same time for about 4 months. i really miss that car, but i don't miss the headaches associated with cleaning, maintaining, upgrading, etc. more than 1 car. now all my attention can be focused on the SVX. i'm getting lazy.
