  This demonstrates why some cars are drooled over more than others, Stan! (But I'm with you on the $440 reality check!)
Beautiful golden tones, lovely repetition in the reflections, and the clarity is wonderful.

  Worthy of all the high praise in the comments above Stan!! Now empty some of those coin jars you've got stored around the house and start counting - hey, you'd be surprised, you might at least have the down payment saved up :)

  You betchum, Jim, and I'm sure that you could easily hit the 205 before running out of highway ... then again you'd probably be marked after the first time :-)!! Thanks, Jim, I appreciate your stopping in to respond!
