Default Good morning




















I am a very happy man. My daughter was over for dinner last night and was able to fix the problems on my computer, I can finally post pics of my misstress. (yes my wife does know) She is a 97' A4 w/64,000 on the clock and pretty much all stock. It is not a flashy in your face car but a more subtle " I know you want me " look. All I know is it keeps me coming out to the garage...............

Beautiful car! Same as my '98, but mine's been modified a little. Going to take mine for a spin today since the weather is so nice here in Northern Illinois.

Very nice white C5. You can't beat a coupe for classic Corvette style. Like your color combo, too.
