Australian Members..anybody know this car?

The below link is from the S registry board...Chuck Miller wondering if anybody knows the owner of a yellow RS, Aussie plates. I'm passing this on at Chuck's request.

My GAWD! You mean Hawaii is still there??? After having been terrorized by this man? Tell us, Jeff...are girls still going to the beaches once this dude has been there? Does five-oh have an APB out on this guy? I can hear the police interviews now... "Well, he said his name was Adam...and he had this funny accent, but please...just forget the complaint..."

Geez...I dunno, Paul. I hear Waikiki Beach is pretty much empty. So is Waikiki. OMIGOD, he ruined our economy!! I hear HPD doesn't want to get involved as they can't understand him...but now Interpol is stepping in!

Oh no, Ron. There's no such thing as men's shirts here. Can't you tell he's a tourist? I mean, come on! He's wearing a shirt! Locals here don't wear shirts! The ladies have coconuts and grass skirts for their outfits and the men just wear these tiny uh...things...that cover up the important part! Oh, and we live in grass huts!

Hey..

I've just arrived home (about an hour ago *yawn*) and haven't had a chance to sleep, or collate some pics or post a big "Thank-you" to Jeff, Daryl and Richard for their hospitality during my stay! (pics on the way!)

I've gotta say that when you're over there, and forced to drive a 'stang, you've gotta look as goofy as possible, to avoid getting ignored at the McDonalds drive-thru! Do you have any idea how hard it is to find an Aloha shirt to match that Mustang?

oh, btw...

Paul, I don't know of this RS you mention, but I'd sure be keen to hear about it when you do!

And how the heck do you guys drive on that side of the road anyhow?? It's crazy! Just as I was getting the hang of it, I fly home and nearly have a head-on with a garbage truck, and I'd for sure, blame it on you guys!

Adam..side of the road? At least then you have some steel for protection. I was once a tourist in the BVI...always looked the "wrong" way before crossing the street. Very glad I'm still here. Man, some things should be planet wide, and I'd vote for traffic directions as number one. Other than that? I do hope Hawaii survived your stay.

"That" side of the road, eh? Remember, we drive on the RIGHT side (right as in correct), while you guys, well, drive on the other side. How the heck do you guys turn right safely?

Jeff? I sure can understand the grass hut, grass skirt & coconuts thing. Here in Oregon, we're hoping to get flush toilets any day now...Within the USA, that big island to the East of you... to listen to some people, you'd think only wilderness exists West of the Hudson river...
