Not Willing To Put Her Away Yet!

Fall is definitely here, but the Blue Box still goes to work every morning, and will until we see snow in my area.

Here are a couple pics from last week. The top was down, but with the windows up and the heater on, the drive in was more than manageable.

The frost is definitely on the punkin'


And the gauges tell you how cool it was at 754AM here in NE Ohio.


Driving a new-to-me '09S in Aqua Blue Metallic. It does .5 past light speed. I made the Kessel run in less than 12-parsecs.
Motto: If you have your top up, that storm outside had better have a name!
Motto 2: Having the top up on a convertible is an oxymoron. Don't be a (oxy)moron.
Cool pictures, Kevin

I agree completely. 29 F and sunshine, heater and bunwarmers makes for a great drive.

Is the white line on your trunk the reflection of a contrail?

Yup. Zainos really puts a shine on the car.

Aside from my struts becoming very stiff due to viscous damping oil, all was fine. Certainly much more traction than i'd have with snow tires (in the dry).

This was on BFG Rivals

Minneapolis a long time ago. Of course the top was up. The exciting part was after driving on the freeway for awhile at that temperature I could not turn the steering wheel when I came to my exit ramp. I had to slow down and let the engine heat warm up my rack and pinion gears and then take the next exit
