Well, of course, as a jeweler since I work with you know what, I had to go you know where…where I saw this
"He's off and flying as he guns the car around the track..."
and this (yes, I used to be a *HUGE* fan despite the er uh, ::cough, cough::, emblem…)
Yeeeee-HA!!!
But, what I really went for was…
Can you guess?
MINI!!!
MINI Special Edition "Camden"
Sigh! If only I had waited a couple of years–but I couldn’t. I needed a replacement when I did, so I have my beautiful Candace.
The Camden is a special edition MINI, made to celebrate MINI’s 50th anniversary. The paint job on it is freaking amazing. It’s a lustrous pearly/silvery/white, and it is just so pretty you want to lick it (well, no, I guess not after all of those people touched it…). I’m not a huge fan of white cars, but I could definitely make an exception in this case.
When we got back home and pulled into the garage, as I walked by Candace (we took Volvie out for the day) I smiled and patted her on the hood. She liked it. She’s snow-dirty, but she liked it.
Now, the one thing that would make the jewelry that I design even MORE cool would be to have it come from the MINI painting bays…MINI-ite. ;-]
Speaking of paint jobs, I wouldn’t mind having this bad boy.
Lotus "Exige"
Well, of course, not just for the color—but that color sure was pretty! (And I’m usually not into orange cars either…)
When spring finally breaks, I must get myself to a racing track—maybe that’ll take the edge off of this crazy car-fiending.
