    Scott, my family had one of those too, maybe a few years newer but Electra 225. Huge car. Thanks for the memories!

    Looking at this thread made me wonder what happened to Mitch Alsup. I remember his as having a lot of knowledge about car set up. Anyway, if you are still around Mitch, howdy.

    For me it was the original 427 Cobra.

    First "exotic?" Her name was "Rose Royce." Saw her in Calgary during a high school trip to see Rush. I've been hooked ever since.

    The first exotic I ever saw was a Ferrari F-40 sitting in the showroom of Big red in Norman OK, I lost a girlfriend over that car because I would drive over to Norman every day just to sit and look at it for hours and hours.

    To bad Big red is not a Kea dealership
