Did I forget something?

Ouch ... did you forget something? I did like the Corvette statement - ROTFLMAO!
Placo1 and I ran with the Horses earlier this year in the O.C./L.A. areas ... we both were running W124 500Es. We definitely stayed up with the F-cars ... 360s, 355s and 348s ... in a straight line. No problem at all, really. However, as we turned onto a classic California canyon road with twisties galore (sorry my Floridian M-Shop members but this means the road has steep hillsides and drop offs), the 500s could not stay up with the Horses or with the P-cars as well ... several in the group.
Yes, our beloved 3-pointed Star produces great cars these days, that's for sure! I can't wait for these Uber Autos to depreciate so I can afford one ... some day.
Again, I sure love that Corvette statement ... 'still rolling on the floor :p
And yes, one of my goals is to own a 308, 512 BB or TR, or a 360 ... BUT, though I am from California, I don't wear a gold chain, I have hair on my chest (nicely groomed BTW), not divorced, and would never own a Corvette ... 'cause I got HAIR on my head ... LOL!
