Fastest convertibles on the planet
If you like convertibles, especially fast ones, here's a treat for you...(and as always, click on any image to enlarge)
Right off the bat, fast as a bat out of hell, is the very fastest convertible in the world. It's so fast, it's name is literally "speed"(in French)--The Bugatti 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse.
McLaren MP4 12C Spyder. Looks like it's tearing down the road at 300 km/h, even when it's not moving at all.
2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT. Okay, so no gullwing doors. But this one's a convertible!
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible, at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show on March 5, 2013
1957 Chevrolet Corvette. If the newest one isn't quite your speed, how about a classic?
A Porsche 918 Spyder concept. Unveiled as three years ago in Geneva, you won't be able to get your hands on a 918 until the end of this year. But with a 4.6L V8 putting out 580 horsepower, combined with two electric motors turning out an additional 240 hp, you can bet it'll be worth the wait.
Replica of James Dean's 1955 Porsche "Beck" Spyder.
Pagani Zonda. "Wicked" is the first word that comes to mind.
Lamborghini Aventador J. This is probably my favourite. It just spews sex appeal. No, ladies--the Italian gentleman is not part of the standard equipment.
Ferrari 599 SA APERTA
Lamborghini Gallardo LP-560 4 Spyder at the 83rd Geneva International Motor Show, March 5, 2013. Sleek lines make for a delicious, aerodynamic look. Same with the car.
The 2010 Tesla Roadster sport. Very different look. I don't know if I like it, but it is different.
BMW i8 Spyder Concept. As soon as I saw this one, I thought it looks like a toy car. Then, I looked at the name. It is a toy.
Lamborghini Reventon. Say it with me on 3. One, two, three...Transformer!

Life in the fast lane
I glanced over at the magazine rack at the supermarket, yesterday, and on the cover of the latest issue of Cosmo, is the following:
Sex that brings you closer:
These moves will light a bonfire in his pants...and in his heart.
And:
What guys want after sex.
My reaction to the first storyline is that I'm getting a sense of why young people seem more confused than at any time in history about the difference between love and sex. I am by no stretch of the imagination a prude--never have been, but in my humble opinion, sex, no matter how great, can never have the lasting and cementing effect that love can on two souls. In fact, I would go so far as to say that spectacular sex early in a relationship seems to have the opposite effect. I'm not sure why--I've never thought to analyze it, but my personal and friends' experiences seem to bear this out.
You've probably heard someone say "All we have in common is great sex." It's doubtful you've ever heard anyone complain "All we have in common is a tremendous love for one another."
This is not to say that you can't have both, but great sex more often follows falling in love than the other way around. Just to clarify, if someone is after no-strings great sex, that's their business. What I'm saying is that I believe magazines like Cosmo are leading naive people into believing that the quickest way to a man's heart is through his pants. I think following such advice will only lead to eventual heartache and pain...even if there are a few mind-blowing orgasms along the way.
As far as the second storyline goes, I thought it was pretty clear to just about everyone over 16 what guys want after sex: to get away from the girl as quickly and as far as possible. Of course, I didn't open the magazine to read the article, but if it contradicts this in any way, it's B.S. There is one caveat to this rule, however. Girls, if you offer to make him a sandwich, he might stay a while. Especially if you tell him he can eat it off your ass.
They had one thing in common, they were good in bed
She'd say, 'Faster, faster--the lights are turnin' red."
Life in the fast lane. Surely make you lose your mind.
