My current toys are listed. The Turbo's are daily drivers when I have to go to my NJ office. But for NY, you want something more "intimidating" as Cobalt alluded to.
Ag02M5 - I had a Lexus Gs-400w/Bilstiens. Great, Great car. My son now has it after it reached the 110,000 mile mark.

Well, I live in the UK. The land that they are trying to promote the enviromentally friendly car which I completely agree with. To that end I have the following.
My daily driver is an F150 Lightning Pick Up. My business partner also agrees with the green issues and he has one too along with another chap that works for us.
Of course I have

but I have always wanted one of these as well which finally arrived three weeks ago

Again wishing to do my bit for the environment I thought I ought to buy one of these, with a 427 big block

Nice list of toys! We had a Challenge Strad on the tour to the Summit Point PCA Club Race this weekend. Before we left, someone made the comment that, "oh, I don't know why they even brought that out here today, he won't get on it", well obviously they don't know my buddy... by the end of the day a couple of guys were say'n wow.. he really drives that car.... I think that began after he ate the 997TTs lunch!
What color was your Islero? I've always loved those and missed out on one about 4 years ago for $17k
Any pics?

Paul, thanks for the compliments. I am actually in the market for a turbo car and am sorting out needs vs wants toward finding the most appropriate model.
I just sold the Islero last month. Very sad to see her go as we imported the car from Europe several years ago.
The CS is an awesome car and loves to be used as intended.

Anthony, I thought I was getting a very special late 60's vintage car to replace it but the "new" car has some unknown rust issues and I may pass.
Heres an engine shot. 4 cam, 6 webers, very advanced for its time and at 330hp one of the faster late 60's cars.
Its very dk blue.

This is our 3rd Smart. The Brabus has had a remap and apart from the still sluggish auto gear change it goes very well. Sort of like a mini 3.6 turbo. The plus side is that they all have been pretty reliable (current one 46,000 miles), good on fuel, you'll always find a parking space and no one will ever touch it. ie. go out for a meal, have a few drinks, get a cab home and it is still in one piece. The down side is that you really tend to be treated like a 2nd class citizen on the road. If you overtake someone they have to try and retake you. I don't have a big issue with this as I do not drive it that much. The Mrs is really fed up with it and a mate who bought our last Smart gets the same hassle.
