Ya, get used to that! It is amazing how much the general public love these cars... they always have a story of some kind of Roadster experience, and it never seems to leave them. If they owned one in the past, they always lament the day they sold it. Had mine 26 years now, and I'm never selling her.
BTW, someone on this list had told me they could either show me how to shrink a pic of my car down far enough to make an avitar, or do it for me (my limited computer skills and program lets me shrink the pics some but not enough). Want to take you up on that... I need an avitar! Please contact me... thanks!

She's pretty rough huh? Maybe see if someone on the list can come out and help you evaluate it or come up with alternatives. Hopefully this one or another will work for you if you've got the bug! Good luck either way... you'll be back!
