R55 one final question: brg or chili red?
#27
I was on cruise control in the right lane bopping along at 65mph listening to some good music and enjoying the day. Cars were passing me one after another and I didn't really care. I was in the zone.
Then a sporty coupe with two young ladies pulled even with me instead of passing. I looked over and the passenger gal raised her shirt and flashed me! Then she covered up and they sped off never to be seen again.
I don't think BRG gets this kind of response.

We are well past the stage where I had a real point.
I want the red and black because I want the red and black. I like the BRG but not as much. It's too mature for me, somehow. I think the BRG with the snuggly leather interior is for when I get that "Dr" in front of my name. The hot red car is for right now.
OK. I'm going to order it tomorrow or on Tuesday if they're closed for Memorial Day. WOO!
All the BRG people in here are super classy. And that's what it is--BRG is super classy, and chili red is super LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME. I guess I'm in an attention-seeking phase right now. Hmm, there's no smiley for ::bashful/ashamed grin::, so just picture it.

I woke in the middle of the night and knew it had to be the red. I emailed him and changed it and never looked back. I am in love with this car.
Think of it as ladybug colors instead of political stuff. I have a small stuffed ladybug in my car and also one of my lifesize gorillas (Joe) with a red dinosaur shirt from a London Museum. (I think he is in my gallery, if not I'll put him there.)
The gorilla's pal is a Mr Bean Bear and a little black sheep rides in the back. Of course I own a stuffed animal shop so I always have mascots in my cars.
NO people, just stuffies. So much less complaining that way.

Or one of those poison dart frogs from the Amazon. It may be small, but it packs a helluva punch!
I have to admit, I don't get the **** association. And I'm just about as big a history dork as you can be. I majored in it in college, keep up with it to this day (currently reading Peter Heather's Fall of the Roman Empire - fantastic, btw), and I've spent the last span of years writing a novel about the Second Punic War between Rome and Carthage.
Point being...if I don't make the connection right off the bat, I doubt many others will, either. Unless you paint a swastika on the side, or something.
P.S. - if you're freaking out about possible **** associations, Porsche did a good deal of built work for the Third Reich's war machine. My memory's a bit hazy, but I know they made turrets for the Panther and Tiger tanks.
