Very classy sir!!!
I lost my Dad a few weeks after Joe did and like mentioned above, family first and don’t regret someday what you can do today!!!
Dang. I didn’t know that about your father. Sorry to hear.
Nice car, BTW.
Thanks again all, appreciate the kind words…
Re. specs, same as an Evora S more or less: 3.5 liter V6, supercharged. 6-speed sports ratio gearbox, AP Racing calipers all around, cross-drilled rotors, 13.8 up front, 13.1 out back, 0-60 in ~4.1-4.4, mid to high 12 seconds in the 1/4 mile, bespoke paint/interior trim exclusive to the GP Edition, of which this the 14th out of 14 made…
What a pickup. I bought my mom a TL. I thought I was cool.
B. E. A. utiful.
Awesome man!!!
That is awesome, can I be your mom for a day?
Just got my wife a 99 323i convertible…then showed her this post. Derp.
Seriously Joe…you rock.
Thanks again dudes…we will have both my Esprit and her Evora at the Lotus of WNY Grand Opening this w/e (both days, noon until 6) if anyone wants a closer look…there will also be a cars and coffee at the dealership on Sunday morning at 9…I promise there will be photos soon…
What a wonderful gift!
cough, cough haha
Maybe you can take some shots this w/e…
I’ll see what I can do.
Anyone that wants to see the car, we will be at the Lotus of WNY grand opening all w/e…
Awesome car. Amazing when the second one showed up. Gotta get her up to TMP with it.
You’re truly great son!
Dang Praxair must pay well. Think you could get me in there?
Anyhow bravo for wanting to make a loved one happy more than you want a bank account high score. That takes a person with uniquely enlightened priorities.
I assume your wife knows about this and was tolerant/supportive of the idea? Bravo to her too. Rare would be a significant other who would be OK with giving their in-law a $100k gift unless they were stupid wealthy first.
…and I’ll check back in in another year. Fry out! :io:
Jimmy, I will not get you in at Praxair. Friends don’t let friends work at Praxair…
Thanks man. My wife certainly was aware of what I was doing and was ok with it. We are fortunate to be at a point in our lives where things are starting to finally fall into place. Plus, this is my expenditure, not hers. I told her it will not affect her, and it will stay that way…
lol
