If only it came in a shiny black leather outfit!
« on: October 17, 2009, 02:32:31 PM »
Someone commented that you'd need a naked portafilter and an X-rated tamper to go with this?

Seriously, what the heck were they thinking? ::) A hot pink Silvia! :o

Some wise guy emailed the suggestion after I posted a comment about the Silvia LE on another forum. Can you imagine what that plastic ::) is going to look like in a few years?

Is that what animal friendly leather is? I have no idea what they are thinking. Is that just a wrap that you can remove and have pretty stainless steel or is it the actual frame?

Edit: hahahahaha will it ever end? How come everything has to have a "i" in front of it?

Do you know what the hardest part about buying a new hot pink Silvia is?

The plastic is stitched on. S/S isn't really stainless - it just resists corrosion better than carbon steel. Removing the "leather" cover might reveal a nasty surprise!

It's a bad joke that will offend someone for sure.

It's stolen from a joke about rollerblading.

It'd probably look pretty cool next to a black taco.
