Despite owning two 122s, I've never seen a 544 in action on the highway. Today (Wednesday December 26), I was driving home to St. Louis from the Christmas holiday in Kansas City, when (between Blue Springs and Odessa, MO) I came upon a light blue 544 sport with Colorado plates cruising on east-bound I-70.

I've never wished so hard that I was in one of my two Amazons, as when I pulled up behind this little beauty. As I cruised by in my heavily-laden 1995 940 wagon, sporting my VCOA badge, I gave the driver a Thumbs-Up, and continued onward with the necessary flow of traffic. My wife said this elicited a funny look from the driver, who could not possibly be ignorant of the attention such a classic car brings...

We lost the car completely by Concordia, MO - when I pulled off to check on my flesh-and-blood baby daughter - and I did not catch up with this beauty of classic Swedish engineering by the time we hit our Columbia, MO pit-stop.

So... is the driver a BB member? Does anyone know who this is? Heading east was definitely the wrong way for Colorado, so I've no clue where this car was heading.
