i thought that since i own two admirable but ultimately worthless automobiles that it would be a really great idea to taunt myself with a new car. so last night we test drove the subaru wrx that's been sitting over at stanley's. i loved it. it's a very cool car indeed. the seats, it's like a sofa. the pedals are aluminum like a race car. and i am SO not allowed to buy it. but it will go on my want list. along with this one.
we saw a few adds in the uncle henry's for 1966 230S's going cheap. matt suggested i check out the body style. is there anything more adorable than a fintail mercedes? the purchase price is a hell of a lot more reasonable than the subaru. and i have a rabid mechanic who will love nothing more than to keep her purring.
i have some kind of car bug lately. i'm finding them more and more fascinating. four wheel drive particularly. although i'm sure i'll live to regret giving a car dealership my phone number.
