We're sure it will come as a shock to no one that Davey G and I routinely debate Fantasy Garage nominations deep into the early morn. Even less shocking was Mr. Johnson's reaction to the Facel Vega HK500, which I believe he called, "A motherfucker of a car." Then we got to arguing about the various merits and demerits of other French l'automobiles. We were both initially torn between the Citroen SM and the HK500, though I eventually sided with the Facel Vega. Davey meanwhile went a step further and declared the streamlined Voisin C28 Aerosport to be the greatest French car ever. I countered that I'll take the Veyron, thank you. To which Davey replied that the Ferrari 308 is his favorite car, ever. That of course leads us to today's winning Commenter...
In today's bitter arguing discussion about whether or not the Facel Vega HK500 is awesome enough to park in our Garage, stu-rock opined:
Like many of the JFG nominees that don't get an overwhelming "yes" vote, this car is also in my own personal fantasy garage. As I do so often, I shake my head in disbelief at the 22% of you who just don't get it.
Count me in stu-rock's boat, as I'm sure it's a Riva.
