Yes, my automotive ADD was at an all time high this past weekend…all because I got a flat tire. So fickle, I know…so after I passed on the Exige S because of the “comfort” I’d miss, I had convinced myself that what I really need is another “toy” car like my old Scion xB that my nephew is now cruising in. Cheap, easy on gas, fun to modify, but not a real barn burner. Maybe it’d make me appreciate my CLS more (which I figured I’d rebuild) and move it to a more friday/weekend status driver. I’ve loved the look of the SMART since I saw one in Munich during a business trip way back in 2000 (I may even have a pic of me with it) . I figure I’ll pickup a white one, pay it off by the end of the year, get rid of the CLS, pickup a gallardo and voila – I’m set for the next year or so. LOL. Needless to say, these cars are actually still pretty hard to come by. My bro had a $99 reservation which he passed on a month ago, but at the time I wasn’t really into buying one…and of course now, I want one. Hoping to pickup a white one if anybody has leads – I’ve made a few calls, let’s see what happens, my urge to buy something is slowly diminishing.
