I miss my baby

Hello all, I've spent the last couple of days touring around Italy in a POS Fiat Punto (rental arrangements by the G.F.). Fiat PUTO more like it. I think that means something bad in Spanish.

As I was driving around the twisting roads in the Italian countryside in that little gutless wonder of a diesal motorized shoebox, I was missing my R129 so badly. When I couldn't pass a truck because there was no power in the car, I REALLY missed my baby.

Last night, when I parked on the street in front of a used car dealership that had an R230, Bently GT, several Ferraris, and a bunch of other cool cars, I really really really missed my baby.

When I visited the Ferrari museum in Marellno yesterday and lusted after the beautiful cars there, I hoped my baby wouldn't be too jealous.

Anyways, I haven't driven my wonderful silver chariot for 1 week and 2 days. And I miss her.

Fiat Puntos suck. Suck. SUCK. No power, no room, the seats are back-breakers. Little tiny car, and it needs three or four lanes of road to make a U TURN.

The R129 is the best car ever.
