I've got the insurance on my Miata as of today. It's been 10 degrees Celcius all week, so I think it may be time. Of course, it's raining right now.

Ugh. You beat me to it. I want a nice clean Silver Escort pretty badly.

I passed a whole convoy of American classics and hotrods/ratrods on my way to work this morning. El Camino's are awesome.

A couple days ago it looks like every old camaro came out in the rain to find those pesky water leaks. I was in the same boat, just funny to see so many camaros on one day.

Some dude literally just drove by my apartment building as I clicked on this thread in a Ferrari 430. It's raining, not sure why he chose today and not last weekend when it was 62 and sunny...?

I do like the first few warms days of the year. Nice cars come out, and all the pretty ladies wear skirts and sundresses

I even see some cool stuff in the milder parts of winter, like a pair of Audi R8s that appear to be driven almost daily. Or the cream colored 356 Coupe I see sometimes on the way to work.

I'm hoping this weekend's rain is the final cleaning of salt from the roads. 2 more weeks and we're in the clear from further snow.

My "good" car won't come out 'til May, but I'm looking forward to a new used car that can be detailed OCD-style.

The nice stuff will come out in RI in the next couple of weeks assuming there is no further need for salting. My grass is starting to turn green--just noticed that this morning.

We made it through another winter, folks.
