I agree...and strangers come out of the woodwork to talk about "That... big... red... what is it?"
Do You see RED when I love RED?

Red isn't a bad color on a car, it's just not my first color of choice.
I have red truck, that's really blue.

That's very true, my Lotus was black originally and though looked very good and rare, it never got the compliments or attention it gets now.

Very nice video.
BTW...I have never thought of Google as a way to share video. I was forced to use Dropbox to receive video of Big Red before purchasing her. The seller didn't use YouTube. Then, I went on to get YouTube savvy for future sharing. I might need to be schooled on the Google video sharing experience.
That color is way better than black.
My girlfriend could probably get into that Lotus, but she'd have a very hard time getting out! Those things are low.

You put your hand on the door sill put one leg over the other and kinda roll out. Haha. Once you do it a couple times it's a piece of cake

78Brougham they are really neat cars. Back when your car was new, I was working outside of Atlanta in Lawrencville. Ever so often I would see a new Lotus pull up into the parking lot and they would get out, switch drivers, and drive off. I looked up in the yellow pages where this dealer could even be, and it turned up to be an office warehouse type building. I went over on a lunch break one day. They had no inventory & would order a car when they sold one. A car dealer without cars.
Wonder if Dave likes this one?

I couldn't get into nor drive my wife's Miata.
Couldn't even get my legs to clear the steering wheel to shift it.
Total FAIL.

That's not you, that's Bob. I posted that very same picture as Bob several times ...are you sure that's you?
That's why she probably couldn't get out! She needs a higher seat height, I can climb in and out of almost anything.

[QUOTE="commando1, I couldn't get into nor drive my wife's Miata.
I'd consider that a big plus.
I thought of Miata's as a fertility car. Girls would buy them and had to sell nine months later. Some great deals on nine month old Miata's out there.
