Skinny!!? Svelte perhaps. Slender works. Certainly lean and graceful. But "skinny"!! They say fully 2/3 of americans are overweight. The lithe and elegant street 289 is not among them. As Peter Egan so aptly put it in his recent Road & Track article about driving a slabside across the U.S., "...the Cobra has both beauty and brutality in its lines." He was talking about the 289 friends and neighbors. SKINNY...hhrrrumph!

Proud to be, "Slab Boy" Tomsic
