Default Ferris Buler's Day Off is one my favorite Top 10 Movies

Can you imagine a modern day Ferris talking his dork/geek friend to swipe Dad's TT roadster for the day.

While I have a coupe, my daughter has a Cabrio, and one of the most awe inspiring drives is along Lake Shore Drive, in Chicago, on a gorgeous Sunday afternoon, and evening.

Too bad the weather isn't nicer in Chicago to enjoy a roadster alot more here. Having lived in the North, South, West, and now Chicago, Chicago is absolutely wonderful in so many ways. I love this city so much I could be Mayor Dailey's poster person.
