Local dealers were selling only at msrp. So I flew from Seattle to Fontana near LA and bought a silver sport package stick for $2000 off msrp. Had to hit the wonderful roads of Julian and Mt Palomar, coastal #1 past Hearst Castle and the elephant seals, and then camped at Big Sur along the river. After seeing a friend in Sacramento, I took off I-5 at Red Bluff on fabulous #36 toward Eureka pushing the 140 miles of curves all the way (think Tail of the Dragon for 140 miles). Then on to Callahan, Yreka and home.

Incredible car in the twisties, better on the freeways than I expected, noisy on the rough OR stretches of I-5, 22mpg, great napping car at rest stops, impervious to the weather and just as fun as my ST1300.
