So, I was browsing the Trek Project One site today, checking out the new Madone.  Interestingly, they've dropped metallic orange from the color options.  Lucky me, that's the color of my bike.  I might have to investigate, and see if I own the only Madone in that color...collectible?  Maybe that's why the initial paint was butchered...it was their first and last attempt at painting with that color.
Apparently I am attracted to bizarre items.  In addition to my discontinued color (after one year!) bicycle, I am one of a small handful of manual-transmission Subaru Legacy GT wagon (Super Wagon!) owners.  Also only offered for sale for one year.  What's not to like?  250 rage-fueled turbocharger-boosted horsepower, wagon utility, all-wheel-drive, sporty handling!  Not to mention ravishing good looks.
I'm either way ahead of the curve...or several decades behind.  Burnt orange, anyone?
