Damn you, I was hoping to be the first Explorer.

95 Ford Explorer, 160k miles and hoping to get at least another 100k out of
her.

Well, I'm keeping the DB4 GT but adding a Lotus Elise to my collection
next month. Needed something more contemporary.

Have you driven one? I tried one out last week and for $50K they can
KEEP it! Needs another 50 BHP and to be kept on an Auto-X course or
set up for/kept on the track. Why did they bother with doors? It would
be easier climbing in the window of any of my cars than getting into
an Elise!

It reminded me of a Porsche powered Meyers Manx dune buggy a friend
had back in the 70s, bone-jarring ride and all.

Evo IX is about to be launched probably for 2006, but the completely new Evo
will be out as an Evo X in 2007, just about when I'll get rid of mine.

PS Did you get any problems with warped front disks?

Phew, thought you meant the Evo then ! Hmm, I'd love another 50bhp though.

I was looking at the S2000 when I bought the Z4, but everything pointed to
it not being good as a daily driver with no alternatives. The Z4 is a great
compromise between comfort, utility, and sport (even with the 2.5). Love
the styling too. Still, I'd love an S2000 for the more agressive weekend
runs.

Alan
