Totally understandable and typical.

That won't stop the peanut gallery, though.

Please let us know when it hits the stands (somehow I don't think I need to worry about that).

It IS an amazing car...but forget the VIN for a minute. Even with all of its rough edges and age wrinkles, it seems to be really embracing racking up the miles for its first driving season in decades....still fabulous at 40!

that's a very large and open-ended question. "Ever" encompasses a very long time, and eventually, except for what goes in the casket with you, it all gets sold.

Based on this launch press pic from earlier in the thread, it appears not.

Outstanding. Tell us more - did you meet the other gentlemen referenced in the article? Did they recall #1? And of course, I assume a hard copy of Christophorus can be bought somewhere.

Nice!
Is it a coincidence that your photo looks like it was set up on the same road as that in the S4 ad?
