As I posted the recently, my S is wearing A/S tires this season....so I will be in nicer weather throughout the winter months. Yesterday gave her a outside the garage and she looked pretty much like this recent pic

I've added weight in the trunk for better F/R weight distribution although this won't help the MPG

If the weather cooperates, the S and I will be in Boston for the Cookie Connection next Saturday/Sunday....and drive back to Philly on Monday Right now the longrange forecast looks good for a drive N early on Saturday.....less good for a drive S on Monday

Well, I only drove mine 100 feet today. I moved it from one parking spot to another one at my place. But I rode in his all weekend. Yesterday he got new tires put on his new CR wheels. Today we were at Newport Beach, Laugna Beach and Dana Point in his New Formula Red S, rolling on his new CR wheels. Tonight, we were out top-down, looking at Christmas lights. Tomorrow, I will drive my Suzuka baby home the 100+ miles.

Drove the Perkymobile over the weekend after not driving it for two weeks due a slight problem with my clutch knee.... I drive it all winter except for days when it's snowy/icy on the road.

Yesterday was really a good S2k day. +1 and I went out for a nice drive and tour of the city and thereabouts. Beautiful, beautiful.

Then it is going to take you as long to get any mileage on your S odometer as it is taking you to get your PPD up!
