Its sad. Between having it rain at least an hour a day for 2 weeks and then being super busy the last 6 weeks in general it has been that long since it has been washed. Hopefully it will get washed this weekend.

S2000 has the perfect proportion for a sports car.... Aggressive but not overly aggressive. Not too round and not too angular. Small but not small like Miata.

Have seen a few Passats running around my side of town & it's a nice looking car.
Had one for a rental a couple years ago & made a 7 hour round-trip for work, no complaints.

Congrats! Love the lines on the new W205/C300! How's it in terms of power (HP, torque) and driving dynamics?

241hp/273tqe @ ~3500lbs with a quick shifting 7AT. 0-60 in ~6sec. Coming from the 325/375 @ ~5000lbs in the F150, it feels comparably quick, but so much more comfortable.
So far I'm loving how it drives, very little body roll, with a firm but smooth, non-jarring ride. Will be making its first longer trip in October, roughly 4 hours to Austin for the US F1 GP.

Was able to move some karts around to make room for the Mustang to escape Hurricane Florence the last few days. Felt much more comfortable with it inside...

Yeah, we got lucky. No flooding in the immediate area but I was basically trapped yesterday by flooding and road closures. Rain stopped overnight so water is receeding. Houses came through clear as well... so that's good. Some branches down in the yard, etc... but nothing major. I was definitely happy the Stang was in the garage though...

As for the kart, let me know! I'm putting together a CompKart LO206 Senior right now that will be for sale

I think SQ5 looks very proper.... not too big and not too small.

The only thing i dont understand till this day is its exhaust... i would not say outlet since it is sealed.
