Hello again, dear friends!
I think my wife is trying to set me up... first she gets me a "Specialty
Auto MarketPlace - New York Metropolitan Area Automobiles of Special
Interest" (something I've never seen before) then she goes out alone (on
Sunday) to check up on new cars for _me_ at the local Acura dealership.
I dunno...
Anyway, hard on the trail of my last posting, there are a couple more
from the booklet mentioned above. I'll skip all the pages concerning
some _beautiful_ Ferraris (photos accompany most, if not all ads).
