Okay, I can't let this go. At the risk of opening the proverbial "can of
worms" I for one would rather see "the dealer's lot" than row after row of
chevy-engined, toyota-transmissioned, oversized tire, candy apple red,
modified Alpines and Tigers. There's room for both at the show, but to us
purists seeing a rare stock version of an Alpine is a treat.

Have you seen a Porsche Boxster car show lately? "Oh, dear, look here is a
red one, and here is a black one, oh, and here is another red one. I think
this one has slightly less air in the tires than the last one." It simply
looks like you are at the dealer's lot. BORING.
