Porsche 918 Spyder Concept

Back in my stockbroker days, I used to keep a picture of a beautiful topless babe in my drawer. Every once in awhile when things in our cubicles was going slow, I’d pull out the picture, hold her up high and yell, “Attitude check!”
Now that I’m older, this is the new “attitude check.”
For more info see Zcars.com.au
My “attitude adjustment” is that little green BMW 3 Coupe that sits in my driveway. It’s 11 years old now and still gets some heads turned when I drive by folks. It only gets driven to church and on “date night” so it will be making me smile for quite some time to come.
You need to quite dreaming about it and just do it. If you wait much longer you’ll talk yourself out of your dream; bad knees, too hard to get into, too expensive,…just do it and smile each time you hear it purr.
If anyone tells you you’re too old for that kind of car, tell them you’ll be able to drive it down the halls in the old folks home and won’t need to buy one of those funny little scooters.
TF, I’ve had two Mazda Miata Convertibles. Great little car, though too small for wife and dog, so we got a Saab 9-3 convertible. Then I wanted a Mini Convert. Now I want this attitude adjustment, which is not out yet.
Little green BMW 3 Coupe - that’s nice.
I think it is ugly.
I bet you could at least tell the front from the back of your topless babe.
Ah, senora WO, she is a beautiful car! However, I’m assuming, when exposed to your beauty pales in comparison.
Ahhhhh, I chuckle at your tongue in cheek compliment. Gracias.
My attitude adjustment says that any one who drives a big yellow bus every day through Portland traffic and up and down steep hills, can dream about an ugly convertible.
WO, It came tripp[ng off my tongue. I am so used to the very polite Mexican people.
Mi espousa thinks the car is too macho and not sexy, as well, but she wouldn’t have to drive it.
Did I tell you it goes from 0 to 100 in 3.2 seconds. Does not that make it so pretty, senora WO?
0 to 100 in 3.2 seconds??
Oh, come now. I think your cabeza has been soaking up too much Mazatlan sun.
I also think su esposa es muy intelligente.
I have an idea both she and I have passed the stage of “you’ll shoot your eye out kid” and you would probably hear us say, “you’ll kill yourself old man.”
Nevertheless, you sound joyful and light hearted. Enjoy your vacation although it probably is coming to an end?
