Sorry about the delay... I was waiting for the photos! And here you go:
No one got the EXACT make/model/color... so we have several winners.
MELISSA was the first to figure out that I got a VW Beetle.
HOLLIS guessed red (and several other colors) so I am giving her and WENDY a spot in the winners' circle (since Wendy was the first to make a stab and go unequivocably with red).
And MARIA was the first to guess a convertible!
Email me your snail mail addresses, my friends. Thank you for playing! And stay tuned for the personalized license plate contest...
Beep Beep!
Edited to add:
My own personal German language translator sent me this email when I just asked her what the title of this post means:
<<Fahrvergnügen, if you can see the 'umlaut') means the joy to ride this car. Wow, one word where the Germans have it easier to say something. Usually it is the other way round. We normally need a whole sentence to describe something you only need on word for. Where did you hear that word anyway?>>
I guess the Germans don't advertise the same way "over there" as they do "over here!"
Thanks, Ramona... and I'll give you that Spritztour (joyride) the next time I see ya!
Don't care that I didn't win. But I'm excited that I, too, guessed the right color! Love the turquoise hat with it! ;) You did go out and buy flowers to put in the vase, right?

You look great in the car!
Do we get a prize for guessing the license plate? My guess is Scrap Happy.

Wow!!!!! My sister got a Beetle, too. But her's is boringly yellow and no convertible (rather sensible decision of course considering the difference in German and Californian weather...)
I love it. Next year at CHA- will you take the car to Anaheim? Can I join you on a ride?

How cute! I didn't think of a convertible, but it is darling. Make sure you bring it to the store next time so I can drool in person.

OMG, Lain! How CUTE is this? You are one hot cookie zooming around in your little bug. And a convertible to boot! Give that man a Klondike bar!
