We knew he had a soft spot for fast cars, which makes perfect sense that Mitt Romney would make a pit stop at today’s 53rd Annual Daytona 500 race in Florida:

The Guv is looking awfully snazzy in that button-down shirt — I’m not sure that ‘Bass Pro Shops’ nor ‘Tracker’ boats have ever had such a great spokesperson!

On the subject of fast cars, I’m aware that Mitt drives a red Ford Mustang GT (convertible?) and Ann drives a Cadillac SRX. I also recall a black Chevy Silverado that Mitt uses to tow his boat around. Anyone know of any other wheels that the future first couple rolls with?
UPDATE by Jayde – You asked for other wheels the future first couple rolls with… Here they are!
Ann Romney says Mitt is never idle. Here he is... grading some land. Nice wheels, Gov!
Some of the Romney family July 4, 2010 - Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. That's one all-American vehicle!

Looking good, Governor! We need to see more of this side of you!!
I don’t care if he’s in a button-down shirt, or bermuda shorts…..the United States needs a man like him in the White House….a man like him is code for “adult”. Run, Mitt, Run!
Hello Mitt, I’am patiently waiting for you to officially announce your bid to be the next President of the United States. We need all the time we can get, others are taking advantage of your non action. We all know you are running for President but the chorus is the only one that truly knows.. It would be in your best interest to make your announcement on all the major networks at the same time. Kinda like a major Presidential Emergency, Because it is an emergency! Plus it would catch the others off guard! We must take advantage of the current Administrations screw ups.. God Bless you and your family. And God Bless America…
Apparently, Romney doesn’t exclude foreign cars, either:
He’s had a Black Pickup truck since 2002 and uses it around his property in New Hampshire.

ANd you can’t forget the Mitt Mobile that was used all the time during campaigning. http://media.photobucket.com/image/mitt+mobile+/sporty04/Mittmobile.jpg
