    We went to the show on Sunday. A yellow 360 was leaving just as we were entering.

    I thought Quality Tune Dave sold his in the lower 48? Different one?

    Eagle River is getting classy.

    Don't know, we passed in traffic so I didn't get a chance to talk. Classy and better looking :)

    Went for a drive today - lots of motorcycles out, and a red NSX. About an hour into it, that darn misfire came back. I am stumped! All new wires and extenders. Swapped them all around and no change. Very intermittent - either perfect or miss; no other symptoms or method to when it does it.

    I will fiddle with all the wires for a while and it will go away, then just come back while driving. Could be a long summer...or a short driving one.

    I saw it at the show. It's a different one. I don't think this one was a Challenge car, though it did have a Challenge grille. If I can upload a pic, you'll note that it has the same license plate as the old 308 with the trailer hitch.

    I PDIed the new Boxster Spyder yesterday and got to take it for a fun little drive. I probably should have taken some pics, but it was dirty. That car corners very well.
    Oh well, here's a pic of a wrecked RS4.

    Saw a gorgeous RS6 (silver) the other day. Rick had said he sold a few. I saw a VW Phaeton at the airport, which is an amazing car if you read up on it.

    Looks like Scuderia wheels on that 360. Dave's car seemed brighter yellow, too.

    Misfire fixed - relay to the O2 sensor/frequency valve was bad. The old one even rattled when I replaced it. Wish I would have known that last fall when it all started. But new wires, extenders and cleaning the caps has made it run better, so no complaints.

    We sold 5 RS6s new, and I know of 2 more that were brought up from out of state. That's one of the cars on my short list to own.
    There are also 5 Phaetons up here that I know of, but none of them are W12s, unfortunately.

    Good deal on the 328. It may not be a short summer for you after all. And it's beautiful driving weather!

    The 355 Spyder was at my friend Gregg's shop a couple of weeks ago. He said it had been hit in one of the rear fenders, damaging the suspension. He sent it over to Spruce Park Auto Body for some work.

    I wonder if SPETR belongs to: http://www.violinshop.net/contact.htm ? He owned a red 308 some time ago.

    Yes, I've heard mention of the 360 being sighted at the Violin Shop recently.

    Saw a gorgeous new Camaro in white with lots of mods. Usually, they do not appeal to me. About a minute later, saw a 2011 Mustang with lots of mods in white also. Both looked awesome.

    Was driving down C Street in the 328 and an STi was hot-rodding around me, but when he punched it, it took off like a rocket. I was impressed with the speed, but not the actions on a public road.

    There is an early '70s yellow Corvette with a huge supercharger in town that should be out soon. Monster car!

    I see the Viper every now and then, but he never waves or returns a thumbs up. Has a license plate that says something like "600 HP". Might be a nice guy, but doesn't seem so. Saw the Rolls outside of JC Penney last week.

    There are at least two Maserati QPs, but haven't seen them in a few years.

    You've heard of the widow maker? My car is the rain maker! Up until last Monday, it had rained for weeks, then I took the car to the transport place at 8:00 AM. After the car was loaded and I was doing paperwork, the sun came out.

    Anchorage event planning has no "plan". Same day as the airshow! Another example of once a decade events scheduled for the same day. A bit of an exaggeration, but they always double bang big events at the same time. Could have rolled the car show one week, since the airshow has been planned for two years.

    Planes win for me today.
