farewell r8,an ode.

[franki68]

Oh how I will miss you.Those modern looks,that truly comfortable ride and complete practicality.That lovely engine and the noise,the lovely attention you got,the way people would immediately let me out into traffic ,the way women would leave their phone numbers on the car,the way kids gave you the thumbs up and asked you to ' floor it for us mr' ,the agility you showed..are you sure this is an audi and not a lotus ? ,those precious moments when the road was clear and your power was unleashed,the way you were fast,but not so fast as to remove all the fun .The pinnacle of your achievement was taking me, a devout porsche man and making me a believer,the way I came out of a track day with porsche uk trying all the gen 2 cars, and wishing the whole time they would let me take you onto the track instead.The way I had to try every single bloody supercar and sportscar in an effort to find something good enough to replace you.

I will miss you ,and Im sure one day we will meet again and have great make up sex.

Steve

P.S. So far, the car HASN'T helped. Still waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S.S. Harrison can you fix me you with one of your "friends"???

Try Zoosk.com. Once you reveal you have an R8, the dates will come. But then you won't have much time to drive. I like to meet girls the old fashioned way... and when you run around and open the R8 door for a gal, she will feel like a princessa at a red carpet event.

What's the "old fashioned way" Harry?

I am just not handsome enough to emmediatly sweep them off their feet. I am persistant, and polite and cordial...We'll discuss when you come down. I must get ready and meet up with R84ME. He has rented a cabin in Madera Canyon, Az.(1/2 hour from Pattys') and promised to cook up some steaks for me and my gal and his wife. C-YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! \"/

Harry....you must be in AZ now. Have fun with Scott and his missus!

Hope to meet up with you in LA June 7th.

Steve
