Top off day - Sky & 911
One of the guys at work just bought a Sky - decent price - 100,000 miles though...
They are fat little creatures - but I still like them better than their dorky looking sister - the Solstice. But, mostly - finally a great day - and the p'car is out of the garage - woo hoo!!!!

Don't they like each other?

they might like each other - but Welpe knows that when you park under bushes or a tree and the top is off - birds happen
 He therefore parks a bit away... and patiently waits and watches.

Wow, 100k on the Sky? Blech. I hope it was a really good deal. Was it a "Redline" (turbo, I believe)? I think those had something like 260hp.
I prefer the backend of a Sky to the backend of a Solstice, but I much prefer the front end of the Solstice. I'd have one, except that I'd probably buy a miata first (I guess I already did ), and I'd rather have a 911 or boxster before that.

You know those women drivers. It's been pretty warm out in SoCal take it, it's too hot for my tastes.

"Top off day"...
My kids called my old targa the 'Top Off Car" (not Porsche) when they were little. |
