3. Always liked them
Nifty car. Cars have little character anymore - they all look pretty much the same.

5. Great cars...
There's one sitting out in front of the foreign car service a few blocks from my house....I'm checking to see if it has a "For Sale" sign on it....it's a red convertible.

7. I had one in 1972.
The perfect blend of Italian styling and German engineering.

Loved that car.
