    Here's my entry - my lovely baby Sophia!

    We have been together for 17 months and she's proven to be an awesome driver. Reliable to the core - starts up immediately, always eager to go whatever the weather, conditions, etc. We have done three track days together, several trips in the rain, cold whatever. She is more like a friendly little Labrador than a car :)

    She wears her "battle scars" proudly - a few paint chips on the black bumper, a little wear on the bolster. She ain't no friggin garage queen - 7,000 miles driven in 1.5 years is proof enough.

    Without further ado - I am submitting pictures taken yesterday after a wonderful Spring day drive in the back roads.

    Dude, how about some shoes? Are you and Pap secret long-lost twins? I still have nightmares about his toes peeking through the rear bumper-shot of his 348.

    Well I made a few improvements to my 348. Since the posting as been a little slow I will submit these for your consideration as you contemplate how you will vote later this month. My 355 wheels were about a 7-8 on the cosmetic scale and it had been bugging me so I had them refinished and all I can say is wow. They are silver with an extremely impressive clear coat. The wheels almost look wet, I'm very happy. I also repainted the calipers red. Fast-forward wheels in Alhambra, who had done some work for me in the past, did the wheels. http://www.fastforwardwheels.com/ In case you were wondering it was $600 including a special primer since they are magnesium wheels. Finally I added a new set of rear Michelin Pilot Sport tires 295/35/18 to replace the tired ones on the back :)

    I did, and you will notice that they are aligned to factory specs with the feet of the prancing horse pointing towards the valve stem. :)

    I guess Chris has just scheduled a fresh 30k service at Eugenio to make sure his car is clean enough for the show. He doesn't want Brent one-upping him! :)

    Nice car Pappy! Love the bolster wear too - mark of a true driver. :D I am sure the engine will come out spotless when you do the 30k this year.
