I came in through the back of Munday Chevrolet for McBro's easy ingress when I spotted the third demension of the thing that my dreams seem to linger on for to long. Like the long blond hair and fancy figure you spot at starbucks hoping the face is as hot, I raced at my brothers walker pace to the silver lined panels of the first v-6 victim my fingers would fondle. Over the yellow plastic chain and out on the handle the dash began to glow in a dim suble LED hew around the reminisent guages of long lost, the hidden switches and buttons showed them selfs by name in the yoke literally illuminating controls on controls, paddle shifted automatic 6 speed transmissions similar to the Ferrari of a few years back. The sun roof made sense, driving this thing could make the drivers head swell. HID headlights with the angel ring around it actually did not bother the salesman in the small cube directly ahead of it, for he was the one who asked to be blinded like me by the things this car can do. Rather than the look of an onslaught of guages, switchs, knobs and levers like I had expected based on the long list of features on the sticker, there was a clean finish with every button hidden in a knob with a variety of features and where some 8 or so buttons across the dial hold presets, they change a feature with the turn of the knob that hides the button. It took all of five minutes to figure out most of what it could do, begging for more trial and error it was on to the rest of the car. Given the attention to the cabin it's difficult to forget the stares this thing would get on any boulevard. The sales brochure could come with a tissue, and elect far fewer uses as the vehicle may eliminate every bodily function. oh, and Sassy does not like her cone, the entertainment for tonight is watching her bump into everything in the living room, with no peripheral vision and eyes on the side of her head I can relate to her given the beginning of this day. Happy cinco de mayo.
