| I wish I had time to take trips like that. My lack of paid time off prevents me from taking long trips. |

And I wish I was young....but driving a 924 is still one of my favorite things to do. I drive one 50 miles round trip each weekday for work. _________________ White 87 924S "Ghost"

That is nice to know. I always worry that I will lose the will or nerve to drive the way these cars are ment to be driven as I get older. My wife tells me I'm crazy when I say stuff like that. |
