Unveiled!

|
The warranty was expiring on our A6 so we decided on a change of wheels. Introducing the newest member of the household, the 2007 Audi A4 2.0T. Yes, it's bright red. Quite a change from the sleek, but melancholy, black beauty the A6 was... may she rest in peace.
Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live
In cars
Here in my car
I can only receive
I can listen to you
It keeps me stable for days
In carsHere in my car
The image breaks down
Will you visit me please
If I open my door
In cars
Here in my car
I know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
In cars
I know I've started to think
I know I've started to think

"Cars" by Gary Numan

Well What Do We Have Here?

There's nothing quite like tucking two beautiful cars in for the night in their cozy garage, while the truck stays out on the curb. I guess cars are a bit like animals, or more specifically pets. We give them names, which ought to always adhere to the unwritten rule that states a car must retain the first letter of either the make or model e.g. "Pete Porsche" or "Cindy Civic". Jeff broke the rules when he named his Toyota Camry, "Jen". Then you have the inside pets and the outside pets. My 914 has always stayed inside, it's barely seen the light of day. On the other hand, my Tacoma has spent the majority of it's short life outside due the fact that it... well... it's a truck!

The new pet.
What in the world is this? And in red??

Mmmmmmmmmm... "Turbo" is a word I like to see when I 'm looking at the engine.

Duh da, duh da, duh da.... she's a shark. *Rawr*. Yea that's right, the shark said, "Rawr." Got a problem with that??

More to come...
