Subject: [s-cars] Upgrades

[Mike Platt]

Yup they are a big fat pig and luxury is the appeal.
I'm packin up the whole family in the avant next month
for Indy. No better ride for that. My kids love saying
"you've just been spanked by a wagon"

I decided to add another fast lightweight to the
garage next weekend.

I just keep telling myself..I need a better commuter
car:)

JR begged -
" I keep looking at that RS2 turbo upgrade, but in the
back of my mind
there's a voice that says, "This car is a frickin
tank!  If you're
serious about performance, sell it, go buy something
lighter, and then
start over..."
Someone talk me out of it."

JR - it is well documented that these stupid cars are
big fat pigs.
That said;
~ as eloquently stated by some lister named Hap
recently -
" This is one great car. I drive to the event in
luxury. Blast around a
race course with a bunch of super cars that were for
the most part
trailered to the event. Then drive home in luxury all
in the same car."

Yes you can teach these pigs to dance and...
An avant makes it possible to haul your entire pit +
to the event too.
