Default I'm at dealer!

Well, Me too! My C2S arrived at the dealer yesterday! At least after they just got done programming her with the laptop, I got to hear her start for the very first time! Man that was sweet music!

Next week, satellite, K-40, Armorglove then I pick her up.

First CD: Sammy Hagar: "I CAN'T DRIVE....55!"

What a sick looking car with the Aerokit and PCCB's! I'm so pumped!

What's funny is that an advertisement for the SLR by a local Mercedes dealership in the LA Times had a little not-so-inconspicuous caption on the bottom that read: "The Ferrari Beater"


Hey Jim, congrats to you too!
Yeah, that's one of my favorite tunes too: I CAN'T DRIVE.....55!!!
