My beautiful wife and our stunning car! Our son spent the day with his buddies family so we had an all day "date" and went to shops we'd been wanting to see, had Portlands best burger with a drink and overall just had a blast. The weather today was as good as it gets anywhere. Relatively rare for us but we do get several weeks worth every year. Anybody happen to photograph their car today? Post em up friends!

George, that is a beautiful photo.
somehow you've captured the essence of that era, 30 years later. There is something timeless about the surroundings, and of course your wife's attire.

great job!

(and do you need to also add this photo to the "pretty girls of Fiat" thread?)

This video is a good example of what NOT to do. As far as I could see, he never once let go of the shift knob except the couple of times he had both hands on the wheel. For all you newbies, this is the quickest way to an early tranny repair. 1st rule of fiat driving. do not rest your hand on the shifter.

so, I'm kinda feelin' bad that I hijacked Georgeramos' thread. And I did so without even a comment about his photo too!

Sorry George. I'm fixing my posts above right now! 8)
