    "The truth is I just want to drive this 563-hp $243,000 convertible to the last place anyone would expect to see it."

    You got that right! I bet 90% of people that actually notice the car will think it's 'just a Benz' and think it's a $65k car and go on with their day. Such a shame. At least you'll get to rip through some sweet twisties without the tourist-minivan-traffic. If you get a spare 5 hours, head east to Sioux Falls. That'll probably be the only time I get to see one.

    By my count, this is the third post telling us that he wants to drive this car to Mount Rushmore, that they got snows for it from Tire Rack, that the car is not especially suited for this trip, that they'll keep us all posted and for us to check back with him often for updates. I mean, he says the same exact thing in every post.

    So where is the update? Multiple posts since htis one, including removal of the snows and nothing on the trip.
