Poor Mrs.Glam. When I get my mind made up, I go OCD... Pt 4 The Finale! [View all]

So, for those of you who may not have been following...

Damn it's been hard to buy one of these.
Black one - Had talked to him a few times, got permission from Mrs. Glam....pending sale to someone else
Orange #1 - Dick sold it out from under me (see previous threads to see what a dick move that was)
Orange #2 - Turned out to have a rebuilt title. Mrs. Glam was having no part of that...understandably
Yellow #1 - Offer accepted but was working with another buyer who was probably going to flake. Didn't flake.
Yellow #2 - Offer accepted. Never heard back.

Which leads us to the finale!

Drum roll please!

LLLLLLLadies and Gentlemen, may I be the first to introduce you to.............THE BLUE MEANIE!!!!!!








And from the ad....Topless!


It's mine! I can't even believe it! I own a Lotus! Dude! I. Own. A. Lotus! Crazy, man. Crazy.

Picked it up in NJ yesterday and drove it home. Had people talking to me at every stop along the way. Had a minivan pull up next to me in Ohio and snap pics. Had a fucking Ferrari give me a high beam salute today (how fucking cool is that? Amiright?)

Got it registered today and my douchebag plates have been ordered. (Vanity plates are, and have always been, for douchebags. Today, I join that club. But, this is a car that deserves it and I went with it. Douchebag label be damned! (And if you have vanity plates on a non-exotic car, well....I'm certainly not talking about you! LOL!)) BLU MENY!

It's loud....really loud. Obnoxious, nimble, inconvenient, conspicuous, & breathtakingly beautiful. Kinda like a stripper girlfriend. And yes, I've made that mistake in the past. Hopefully, considering this is a machine, it doesn't have the problems associated with the human counterparts of its traits.

Anyway, I finally got my Lotus. I'm just living, man. L I V I N.
