Test-drive a Prius? Maybe. A Porsche? Not on your life!

It was reported in the Pioneer Press on Tuesday that a guy taking a test drive in a 2008 black Audi RS4, accompanied by the salesman from Maplewood Audi, pulled off into a parking lot up around Lauderdale, tied up the salesman, took the battery out of the salesman's cell phone and stole the car. The thief at least has taste. The RS4 is about $75,000 worth of car. As one of the world's great tire kickers, I found myself instantly jealous of the thief.
