    Thank you both! Yes, I am pretty pleased with this particular picture.

    I have gotten various mpg figures over the 2 weeks I have had the car so far, the worst being 39 mpg - and the best being 65!

    Great shot, habel. You know how to frame a picture.

    P.S. Good luck to Norway in the Olympics. Do you get a lot of TV coverage? Live?

    Our "Sports Illustrated" magazine predicts Norway will win 25 total medals, including gold in 5K and 10K speedskating, team ski jumping, women's moguls, men's curling, six in cross-country skiing and two in biathlon.

    Thanks, Jack!

    Well, we normally do quite well in winter sports - but 25 medals...? Would have been nice!

    Yes, we do get live coverage of the games over here - looking forward to this event!!

    I'm curious how it would have come out if you'd stopped down a
    lot more, to get more detail in the background and highlights...

    Thanks! Yes, the tint is to keep the interior temp. lower during summer, and I personally like the "look" of it! :)

    Great Photos!

    I was following your wait with you. I enjoyed the pictures of your baby when it first arrived at your "dealer?" and I glad to see you're still enjoying her.

    Weren't you looking for suggestions for a name; what did you decide?

    Hi Vincent!

    Yes I noticed your interest :) I decided for Falcon, they are gliders too, you know!

    I am very much in Love with this car - this is a completely new and positive experience compared to the "traditional" cars I have been driving up to now!

    Nice Picture Hable. Like that tinted glass. Here is a picture of my Red one in TN. My son is showing off the backseat.

    Thanks Roy!

    I was seriously considering a Barcelona Red myself - but I had no way of seeing one before ordering - so I chickened out... ;)

    You have a lovely car too! And say hello to your son from Norway! :)
