Boys and their toys.


My poppa has bought himself a new toy ... ummmm ... I mean performance machine in honour of his 65th birthday (which was in January ... details, details). Think he’ll let me drive it?

Yeah, me neither.

My Dad's 75 and when we were at the Montreal Auto Show this year (either we go to that as a Father/Son/Grandson event or we wind up at some bingo hall at a gun show) he was seriously looking at the cheapest Lotus..

If you go on Crescent Street in Montreal this week, you will be tripping over this type of car. It's Grand Prix Week in Montreal. Conspicuous(sp?) consumption rules!

Oh, and girls have no appreciation for cool cars whatsover... That really has to be one of the biggest and dopiest canards ever.

I never said I didn't appreciate his taste, Red ... in fact, I'm dying to drive it. I just don't think it's gonna happen.

red tory, you in Montreal?

400 hp, 0-100kph in 5.6 seconds... outstanding!

Be careful in that thing, lulu ;) No lead feet.

Of course he'll let you drive it. He knows you won't speed, take corners too fast or spill coffee on the calf-skin seats.

(This has been a feel better moment brought to you by the listeners of Pirate Media.)

If only, sailor ... I've never driven his BMW 635csi. Which is considered a classic and is no longer in production.

Nope, I'm thinking it's gonna be the passenger seat for this girl.
