Instead of telling him, I thought it would be better to show him!

Well, the temperatures hit the low 40's today - the roads were dry and salt free, so my baby came out for it's first drive of the year.... whoo-hoo - gotta love spring and the low rumble of my flat-6.

Apologies for the crappy cellphone photo.

... Phil is spinning in his grave

It was so nice to fire her up and put my foot down... the car hasn't been started since November, so I was getting really impatient for a drive.... the bad part was driving home from my racquetball game after work and getting stuck behind a POS Honda... that happened to be driven by my wife

He will when he sees my car out and about when snow is on the ground.

Nice, Wayne! Glad you could get her out and about today.

Don't be too harsh on your wife. She probably had the gas pedal in the Honda floored...... don't ask me how I know!

She may have, but it didn't help that she was stuck behind a line of 6 Pennsylvania drivers doing 30 mph in a 45mph zone.

If there was a clear line available to overtake I would have done so in a really noisy, fast, and thoroughly enjoyable fashion - it's nice to at least have that option when I drive the Porsche... hard to do so in the Acura, as it's as responsive as a dead squirrel.
