White 1999 AU Forte, bog stock, no options. The most beautiful car of all cars, it's aged like a fine wine as well.

The Eagle E type. A rebuilt XKE which has reliable everything and that functions properly.
Kinda like a beautiful woman that is sweet, intelligent and emotionally secure but not self-obsessed.

Could be the same one I saw in Adelaide in the mid 90's. Was parked in the detailing bay of the prancing horse dealership, there for the GP display of Ferraris if I remember right, wasnt there to be worked on.
