Hi from Seattle!
Just thought I'd introduce myself since I'm new to the forum. I'm a Brit, now living & working in Seattle. I wanted a Transam ever since I was a kid watching Smokey & the Bandit (now that ages me!). Moving to the USA gave me the opportunity to live the dream and own a Transam. Unfortunately '70s Transams in Seattle seem to be either basket cases (been there, don't want to do it again!) or money no object rebuilds going for $$$$. However I went to a Transam meet in Everett and saw a 2002 WS6 and was blown away! Liked it even more than the 70s models.
Anyway, spent 2 years looking for the right car and then happened across a great find in my local sports car dealer. A factory mint 2002 WS6 with only 600 miles on the clock! Had to have it and struck a deal the same day. Traded in my crap V6 Mustang (how can a 3.8L engine be so limp!) and drove away in the WS6. I have not seen a car at any money I would rather own. Rareity value and looks alone are worth their weight in gold! Get loads of compliments and absolutely love driving the 'bird.

Snow
Had some people visit from out of town. They couldn't believe snow in April! We wanted to go out from the office and take some pics of the Dreamlifters (bloated 747s that they transport the 787 wings in) at Boeing as they had three in at once (will never happen again), but the snow was coming down like crazy.
