Well, months after I posted here, the '93 Dodge Caravan is up for sale. I just put my deposit on a Audi TT Quattro Roadster!!!!!!

Lake Silver Metalic with Aviator Gray leather interior and black ragtop. I should pick it up in about two weeks. I'll try to post a picture as soon as I can.

This isn't MY new car, but it is the same year, model and color. When I finally do pick mine up, I'll try to post an actual photo (s) of it.

Man - I can't wait to get it; should be in about 1 1/2 weeks.

I tried to put a photo in but can't seem to do it. Any help would be appreciated

OK - I figured out, at least how to post the picture as my avatar.

I'll still post the true picture when I get the car and if and when someone can give me directions as to how to post a picture in my message.

Sorry to hear that. They definitely have personality. Subaru does things their own way, from the frameless windows, to the lights which are switched with the ignition to the puttering sound the boxer engine makes. Fun cars.

_My_ car

Might as well post here - nothing to do.

1984/5 1.8L Honda Accord Sedan EX with everything except the kitchen sink. About a billion miles on the odometer by now.

Japanese version with wraparound headlights, unlike the uglier headlight American versions I've seen.

WOW! That's -- AMAZING! I mean, my Accord does that too, perhaps even topping 150km/h! And it's automatic!

Seriously, I assume you mean fastest accelaration times to 140 km/h in 3rd? Or is it in MPH?

I finally borrowed our service department's digital camera and tried to take some pictures of the TT. Unfortunately, not being used to a digital camera and the associated LLOONNGG "shutter lag" (I'm used to my 35mm), parts of each picture are a little cut off. One of these days I'll get some real shots on my regular cameras.

I will try to post either the pictures or edit this and post a link.

Thanx, I love the car.

How could you guess?? Yes, I am a proud Democrat, I am a district leader in my city and am the Treasurer of my county's party. In my spare time I manage political campaigns and/or do political consulting for Democratic candidates. In fact right now I'
m managing the campaign for an insurgent candidate for the New York State Legislature.

I actually made sure that I included a picture of my license plate (and I've had this one for quite a few years now) just in case terrysalmi dropped in on this thread.
