aschulz261 Report post Posted August 17, 2013 I got notice a couple days ago that I could pick up my car after FINALLY making it all the way to Maui. I went and picked it up this morning. This was almost as exciting as picking it up brand new from the dealer. Here it is fresh off the boat: It sure was great to see my baby finally almost home..........until....... I turned around and saw THIS parked 50' away! OMG is that thing gorgeous in person! Finally, after 82 days and 6100 miles, it's finally home. 3 acdii, corncobs and hybridbear reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djminfll Report post Posted August 17, 2013 Congrats! That must have been exciting to get your baby back again! I'm sure you'll be the envy of the island, getting 40+ mpg! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aschulz261 Report post Posted August 17, 2013 That Vanquish had Aston Martin of Cleveland tags on it. Obviously BRAND new. I have no idea why you would send something like that here. Most speed limits in towns are 20 mph. Highways are 45 mph. I think there is about 4 miles of 55 mph total on the whole island! On the other hand, first trip home...from the harbor to my front door.....was 50.3 mpg.... Woo Hoo! 2 corncobs and hybridbear reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
