[s-cars] Subject: she's gone...

Paul's poignant note nearly brought tears to my eyes.

Well, not quite. ;-)

But it did remind me of my recently departed TQA 5000. I put her on Craig's
List and within a week the car was gone. I still can believe that I got
$3000 for her, ratty headliner and all. There were plenty of busted knuckles
and cursing while under the hood of that car, but also hours and hours of
amazing driving. And, My God! The performance she had what with the IA chip
and a few other tasteful mods: she was such a sleeper. It would truly irk
folks in much newer rides to be completely dusted going up Colorado mountain
passes by that old red wagon.

I do love the S6, tho. But I'm still not sure if the car has as much
personality as the old red rocket. . .
