Fact of happiness

This is the latest car I bought. I love to write that. The latest car I bought. The latest car in my garage. The latest car in my collection. In my collection of cars. That I´ve got. In my garage.
Yes.
For a tiny split of a second I can actually see a giant garage with real cars.
But maybe in another life. In this, diecast models will have to be enough.

I guess it´s the same thing. No. I guess not.

But now I´m only missing Shu and Rip from the World Grand Prix Racers in Cars 2 (with rubber tires). That feels good somehow. Strange, but the progress and feeling of forward motion, closer to reaching a goal is there and it makes me happy.

Not as happy as a real Corvette would make me. But little happy.

And little happy is better than no happy. That´s a fact.

Little Italy in New York

Just a quick post from our trip to New York. It's a sad fact that we're out of new cars, Mattel seems to have a great deal of problems. No Flash (or other Super Chase Cars) and no... Nothin'!
I've been to the largest Toy Stores in NY and all of them have Lightning, Finn and Mater. That's it.
Come on now! More singels, team chiefs, bad guys (like the Trunkov family) and more Flash!
Below you'll see my only cars bought in the US. It was nice to finally get Uncle Topolino - and to such a nice price! $7,49 for three cars! I usually pay the double amount for ONE car.
So the trip to NY paid off! Or... Not! But it was so great! More on that topic to come!
