There needs to be a warning...

About your cheeks hurting from grinning ear to ear when driving it home!

I went to pick up my baby lil' blue when I stumbled upon this beauty at the dealership...

and here is my baby (more photos to come Monday when my overdue Zaino order comes in :smile


[Edited to shrink MONSTERMINI down to size]

BTW, The sound she makes when accelerating was beautiful music. My MA said not to take her over 6k, he says that the 4200 rpm barrier is where the engine really shines, and just dont redline it and it'll be fine!

That is sweet. Too bad about the "not for sale" in the windshield.

Everything's for sale, just depends on what you want to pay for it They'd sell it for the right price.
