To which I must reply, isn't everyguy who drives a Spitfire a "dreamy guy"?.
. oh . . stop. . .I couldn't help myself :-).  I also just remembered, in
the movie the Wraith, the "dreamy restaurateur good guy" (owner of the local
burger joint) drove a yellow/primered Spitfire 1500 which was the topic of
conversation at one point in the movie.  The "bad guy" with a Corvette
wanted to race for pink slips, obviously unaware of the neck snapping
acceleration and blinding speed of the little beast!  Of course the owner of
the classy restaurant refused, knowing full well he would have blown him in
the weeds, ha a lowly Vette with a blower, dream on! :-)

regards, - "dreamy guy",
