Glad to hear you guys had fun - and sorry I could not make it.

Poor me had to take a black SLK 55 AMG to the exotic car meet at Santana Row this morning... my manager suggested that'd be the right thing to do. I felt so guilty having all this fun with a small, light 5.5 liter/355 hp/V8 roadster, before I had to get back to work.

I saw a large group of early 911s, along with a few newer Porshs, Ferraris, a Lotus, a Maserati, and some Asian rockets. Junior was there, too, but without his exotics. Apparently the gathering draws a lot more Ferraris and Lambos on warmer days, so I'll be back... maybe with the 928, or with whatever I can ****** from the store.

Too bad they won't let me drive the 2004 Ferrari 360 Spyder they took-in last week!

Sorry you couldn't make it Nicole, but it sounds like your enjoying the fringe benefits at work. Keep bugging them for a spin in the spyder.

Yeah, I wasn't 100% sure it was a miss. It sounded and felt like one, but too subtle. The engine should have loped a bit more. Whatever it is, it is VERY regular, and varies exactly with engine RPM.
