FossilMedic Goes Shopping for Speed

10 comments

FOSSILMEDIC WRITES FREQUENTLY ABOUT HIS NEED FOR SPEED and his daring exploits with the premium-car selection at the Hertz lots around the country (HERE), especially out west where the roads are straight and flat.

This past Sunday he was showing some angst (HERE) as he pondered his next V-8 powered purchase that will have to be made soon.  So we’re going to help Mike out, here.  Some timely and wise recommendations, if you please.

While he was looking over last year’s speed-demon sports cars, I’ve been looking over next year’s designer roadsters.  You see, with the coming environmental mandates forcing the auto makers to shift production over to the “Smart Car” concept, the true sportsman will be anxious to be among the first on the starting grid with these Green Runabouts.

One that will certainly be within his price range is the SMORVETTE:

If that juicy consulting contract comes through, then he can seriously consider the SMORSCHE:

A real windfall, such as a big hit with the Lottery,  will put him in the showroom pondering a SMERRARI:

But the one that is bound to be his favorite will, alas, always be out of his financial bracket.  But he can afford to get the 4-ft. poster for his bedroom wall of the dreamy SMAMBORGHINI:

Yes, Mike …. your tire-kicking is just getting started.

    Hmm, the Smorvette looks promising.

    May end up with a V-6 or smaller ….
    pretty sure it will have a clutch pedal.

    I favor the Smerrari. I always dig the ragtops.

    With my bald head, a convertible could be a health hazard

    What about a 63 beetle with 4 on the floor and a 1300cc, top end at 53 with a tailwind.

    As a German, I prefer the Smorsche. But I´m not sure where to put my golf bag in this one…
