Yes the ornament is hidden when the car is parked, good idea as everyone wants to steal them and put them on their VW's. lol.

I had a guy in front of me at a parking lot recently with a huge new model Jaguar, I swear that thing was longer than a Ford F150, he had to do a three-point parking procedure just to get into a parking spot, he was holding everyone up just trying to park in a regular sized spot.

Doing my usual loop through car dealer websites this morning and stumbled on a 82 911sc. Priced at 53k which is not bad for this market. Figured it had high miles and was ratty but it's listed as having 62k and there are no pics up yet but ad says it's very clean. Bet it will be gone before the pics get put up.

One on the Facebook groups I'm in is "Colorado Cars and Coffee". This was recently posted. WOW! It's an Aston Martin Vantage Coupe F1 in Aston Martin Racing Green.





Mike Ward Maserati in Highlands Ranch (Denver) has some fancy cars. Last week, a salesman (very nice guy) brought an orange 2019 NSX to Fort Collins for a guy to check out. The guy/Craig wanted to see the red of my 2017 Valencia Red Pearl NSX so I drove it to his house so he could see the colors together. I guess he wasn't sold on the orange one since it's still on the website.



^4-27-2022. Craig owns the 1991 NSX in the driveway.

Not a bad ride for a handicap driver.

Yeah, many people posted about that. I never noticed as I was loving the car overly much.

Unless he is handicapped or parked there accidentally, he's a D___k in my book.

I think we all agree the driver is a loser for parking in a handicapped spot. Can we move on and enjoy the car?
