their metabolic processes are now history! they've kicked the bucket, shuffled off their mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!!
THESE ARE EX-Hookers!! Is what I am saying.

I could probably fit three in the back of the Z.

I carried the organizer. Even strapped it in so it wouldn't slide around.

So if we look at this from the opposite perspective, the Z is the most efficient at being a sports car

Maybe unrelated, but Car and Driver was my least favorite car magazine. For me, the contents sucked and it really annoyed me when the editors or reviewers or whoever they were would pose like they were posing like models for GQ. Grrrr!

Many years ago, I used to subscribe to many car magazines and when I saw named Cseba (or something) posed with his dog on page 2 or 3, I immediately cancelled my subscription.

, back in the 90's I had a subscription to Car and Driver and Motor Trend. Back then they were both great, but they've really gone down hill the last couple of years. I'm a fan of Road & Track now.
