In Reply to: We still have time to rehabilitate you posted by Victor Khomenko on October 10, 1999 at 20:57:48:
is that the color you refer to? Because my local dealer had one and I took the wife down to see it. She laughed hysterically the entire time we were there, while the salesman and I tried to make a serious pitch for it (high-visibility is an important safety feature!).She wouldn't go for it. So we ended up special-ordering a black one. I haven't seen that car around anywhere. I wonder what happened to it? Earl Scheib?
***It's a gas!***
Yep, this is the one with the "T-5" engine and "Quattro" drivetrain. When you get under the hood you see lots of "Made in W. Germany" on the parts. It's essentially the Audi S4 motor, drivetrain, suspension and brakes nailed on to a Volvo wagon. The whole thing has been lowered 4 cm and comes with stock rubber that wears down to slicks on the way home from the dealership (very sticky). I use it for trips to the grocery store and Home Depot. Once or twice a year I get on the pike and make a mad dash to Soundex, after telling the wife I'm going to get milk and diapers. With the seats folded down, you can get an entire BAT CD player back there, with room for the cables.
That's enough of this. What did you see this weekend?
The One Wild Moment - the French movie with a totally un-American ending.Another good one - The Fire Within with good actors, B&W and depressing. Also, The Music Teacher one more time - for our guests.
To demo the system to our guest - Ronin and The Mission Impossible side by side. What a striking contrast, with the Mission being a complete trash and waste of time, even some good actors being unable to salvage it.
I could not believe how awful Emmanuelle Beart looked in the Mission. She is certainly losing it and her lip job loks like something made for a cheap Barbie (I am presuming the lip job, too bad if she didn't have it).
My guest is a ping-pong nut, so he brought with him one of those tapes of the professionals doing their strokes. Trying to be a good host, I watched through most of it. As you like to say, horror...horror...
thanks for the film reviews. If we can't abuse our friends, why even have them? You sound like a gracious host. Another lost art.
