    LaTeresita is good. Honestly, the best are probably some hole-in-the wall in West Tampa.

    Best thing about Miami is that it is in the great state of Florida.

    (and as long as they behave, we will let it stay :cool:)

    Too bad it’s not like Cali where you can hold out hope that it falls off in the ocean.

    I had a friend I met my freshman year at UF who was from there, RIP Chuck.

    I dated a woman who was from there for a while. She drove a Corvette. She liked good whiskey. She was an attorney and fixed a speeding ticket for me. She was fun. I liked her.

    That’s about all I got.

    No worries. It’ll be under water once the pole shift happens. :)

    I bought my first Porsche from a seller in Miami from a classified in the Auto Trader back in '98.

    It was an '81 911SC Targa, white on black. I paid $10.5K. My buddy "Big Dave" drove me down there and I drove the 911 back without any issues. Not long afterwards though, it experienced a few of the dreaded snapped cylinder head studs, so did an engine pull and had the engine rebuilt. Other than that it was a pretty good car that I even tracked at several race tracks.
