A 928 I would actually drive.

 
I've always loved those cars.

Toyota V12? Out of what?
ME TOO! Especially one with a 6-speed like that one.....

Sure wish they'd shown that engine in the 928 engine bay

EDIT: Here it is (I love the Internet)

Tight squeeze
 
For you fans of the "yellow-can-beer", here's a great article about the genesis of it. Sidebar: Victory Sandwich Bar is one of our favorite hangouts and we sort of saw all this unfolding in the neighborhood. Actually, one of the founders (Purdy, I think) was right down the street from ACC's old shop and came in a few times with his Cruiser. He left them some unlabeled bottles a few times that turned out to be their first commercial brew called Ode To Mercy.

No Scammers!

Lots of folks selling on Craigslist include this in their listing. I was reading one add, thinking about maybe pulling the old scammaroo on the seller, but then read his emphatic No Scammers! and thought "crap, foiled again by a genius seller!"

It's kind of like making schools gun free zones in hopes of stopping a mass shooter.
 
With a single shotgun blast, a 65-year-old woman in rural northern Virginia recently shot down a drone flying over her property.

Youngman explained that she grew up hunting and fishing in Virginia, and she was well-practiced at skeet and deer shooting. Youngman told us that she had just returned from church one Sunday morning and was cleaning her two shotguns—a .410 bore and a 20-gauge—on her porch.

“This drone disappeared over the trees and I was cleaning away, there must have been a five- or six-minute lapse, and I heard the ‘bzzzzz,’" she said, noting that she specifically used 7.5 birdshot. “I loaded my [20-gauge] shotgun and took the safety off, and this thing came flying over my trees. I don’t know if they lost command or if they didn’t have good command, but the wind had picked up. It came over my airspace, 25 or 30 feet above my trees, and hovered for a second. I blasted it to smithereens.”

When the men began to walk towards her, she told them squarely: “The police are up here in The Plains and they are on their way and you need to leave.”

The men complied. “They got in their fancy ostentatious car—I don’t know if it was a Range Rover or a Hummer—and left,” she said. The Times said many locals believe the drone pilots may have been paparazzi or other celebrity spotters flying near Robert Duvall's property.​
