Re: Post Malabu ...)




When I went on Saturday...I got there about 10:00am and most cars were
already there and it had just started raining a little while before.  I
saw the GTI (silver?) when I left about 11:30am. there were some cars to
look at that were kinda neat. my favorites were the john finger racing
porsche 911-- and what about the car with all the buttons and 
doo-dads all over it? did anybody see the M Z3? I took some good pics of
it since they don't keep them here in the states.  When I was there I had
my rocco, there was my friend with a passat wagon and a little wuss that
doesn't know how to drive a corrado (friend) he has always driven
lowrider trucks and this is his first real car (I'm jealous!)
