It's not beige, it's Desert Sand.

I really wanted to take it there and get a picture of it in the spot near the front of the mall, but I didn't drive it home. I may go back and do it just for fun.


That's awesome. I wouldn't be able to resist doing 88mph in the parking lot. I really wouldn't and I'd frame the speeding ticket.

That was also very much on my mind haha. I may go back for the picture, but probably keep it a tad under 88.



...Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, was just a freight train coming your way...

^^^I am and I agree with you. Most vehicles are mundane and it's getting worse. At one point, it seemed like every auto brand had at least one vehicle that at least tried to be interesting and fun, even Buick had the Grand National.
