Hey nicole,

can I purchase just one (drivers side) clear side marker, it would seem that one has disappeared while the passenger side one is intact.

Angela,
Well done she (he) looks great.
Can't wait to see her this afternoon.

Just got off the phone with Sean, the car sounds like it's sweet, the pics verify it! A husband & wife Rennlist team, how awesome.

Now, I just can't wait for Angela's first technical question, and to see her posting about her first TB/WP job. (Ang-just to set the record straight TB/WP job is a ToTALLY legitimate statement/term!).

But, when she starts posting questions about wheel offsets and motor oil, then we'll know she's really getting into it!

Welcome to the club!

I've been informed that I won't be allowed to drive it, so she was informed that she gets to maintain it.

The funny thing of all this, is Angela is going to be pulling up to Doc's this afternoon behind the wheel.

.....that is, of course, if Sean doesn't bring his.

Congrats indeed! Nice looking Shark! Nice that they are matching color too. uh, just don't post any pics of hubby posing on the hood of your shark is all we ask!

My wife loves her recently acquired S4 more every day. She's real protective about me driving it too, as long as I "clear it" with her 1st with a "legit" reason. Her folks were over last night & she went on & on telling them about it. Amazing how much of this shark stuff she actually retains when I tell her!

Then she asked me to take her dad out in it & let him drive it. Of course when we got back she asked me if I cleaned off any bugs from the front before I parked it back in the garage! By the time the wife was done "selling" the attributes of a 928, her mom was saying she wants to ride & drive it to see if she wants one too!

Well, hummph, I guess it's okay if you bring it out today,,,sigh. Just plan to leave the keys with my for a 'Doc's special' checkout next week. I'll bring it back, I promise. Might be a bit scruffy, need new tires, but you'll get it back.

Congrats, that's the way to keep it in the family.

Thanks everyone! I absolutely LOVE the car. The drive to and from Doc's was great, she rides like a dream. I had my daughter with me today, she loves the 928......and anything that goes fast....... the grin on her face when I hit 110 was priceless! I was a little timid driving along with the big boys today since I don't know my car very well yet. I think I hung in there pretty well!

The funny part about that 110 thing. Neither of them knew they were doing it until Ang looked down and said something about it. There were a few of us in a train and she just happened to get stuck in the middle of us.


***This happened on a closed course track, under very favorable conditions, supervised by expert road course drivers.
