It's Easy Being Green

The Italian Minister of the Environment was on television last week urging Italians to be more green.

Conscientious person that she is, Kara did her part:

Kara: "I even had it painted green!"

Michele: "It sure cost me plenty of green."

nice... but its too green for me.

Has Ferrari been raiding Lamborghini's colour swatch book? I think you could get a Miura in that colour.

Kara does tend to follow Jeremy Clarkson's idea of "being green":

Speaking of going green: "Gas-hole" guerilla anti-SUV campaign magnet.



Not particularly elegant in its execution if I'm honest... but effective and funny.

While it's a step in the right direction, I think Ferrari will need to offer more than a KERS system and a new color choice if Porsche is actuallly able to make good on the claims it's made for the 918 concept.

Kara's covered either way. She's already #5 on the reservations list for the 918.

Oh man, that Porsche = Sex on wheels made of hemp...or something.

Allison, meanwhile looks forward to the Tesla Model S and is hoping to buy a Tesla Roadster:

Michele could go for the Model S as it looks like the Maserati Quattroporte.
