Reply to "My First 356...How Much are they?"

Chris has hit a hot button as to why I like these cars. One of my friends is thinking of buying a Lexus, while another is happy with his 356 SC. What's the difference? The late singer/songwriter/clogger John Hartford wrote a song about his mother's new washing machine. In the refrain, he talks about the new one sounding like, 'mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm', while the old one went something like, 'bush-a-boppa bush-a-boppa bush-a-boppa' ..... get the idea? Purposeful and interesting.

My friend's wife, the one with the 356, said his car sounds awful, and VW engines sound like threshing machines. She's not a car nut, after all. There is something refreshing about these elemental creations that gets me where I live. I think that's great.

So Chris, enjoy your Z3 and the Speedster too. They are both great in there own way.
