Something about my silver with the black/silver/white designo interior that drives me crazy. I wish my beautiful car were a woman. I know that "EVERYONE" has silver -- but that's because it looks so good. "Everyone" also has 2 arms, and you don't see too many people lopping them off just because they aren't unique. Oh boy, it is almost the weekend, and I can't concentrate at work thinking about getting to drive her this weekend.

Bright Silver with this interior Looks So GOOD!

Plus, it doesn't show dirt so much.



And it looks good with the wheels.
