Yes it is a very beautiful car.

Have you given any thought to how high you set the bar for the rest of us? My wife about wet herself when I bought her a Jetta. I just hope she doesn't read this forum.

Gorgeous color combination. You might want to consider going up and driving it back instead of shipping it.

Did you buy this car from Hawkins? I do business with their dealership and they are great people. This has been a family owned business for a very long time. Jim Hawkins and his son Josh are really good people. Jim also owns a white 1954 Corvette that his dad sold brand new from this store and they traded it back in about 40 years ago and they kept it. The car is in the basement right under you new 2011.

Damn! Yet another person who got a new Supersonic Blue convertible who's not me! To say I'm envious would be a huge understatement. Very nicely done.

Yes Hawkins in Danville, PA. I'll ask about the 1954. That's the year I was born. You you think they'll let me drive it?
