One white, one yellow, one pink and one peach and a yellow, orange and green polka dotted pin wheel and a fuzzy monkey pen. My bud vase is quite full right now
Just wait till that polka dotted pin wheel gets going when the air is on! WOO WOO!!!!!! You'll be takin' off!

A rose

When at home I've found out that in the trunk the plastic cylinder was lying wherein the budvase can be stored when not in use.

the salesman let me pick the flowers i wanted out of what they had to offer (faux gerbera daisies)... i chose a red one with a sort of orange sunburst towards the petal bases, and an orangey-yellowy one. dunno when i'll change them out, but i'm considering either a faux calla lily or orchid, or perhaps lucky bamboo (real, perhaps).

Now, just gotta dust off my dash. haha!!!

Also in the 'no bud vase' club, but currently, the vase is wired with a blue light at the base, and a glass rose with a changing color LED...
It's been there since '04...previous items were a black feather rose I found at a gas station near Roswell, and peacock feathers from my first mail route.

Bugzzi's original owner's who I bought it from had a lil white daisy. That car was the lady's baby and she was sad to see it go, but they had just gotten 2 brand new cars. I asked her if she wanted to keep her daisy and she told me that it had a new home now. It was soooo sad! I still have the daisy, but it's in my room now.

What the....?!? I can't believe you guys got things in your vase when you bought your beetles. I bought my NBC brand new and it came with NOTHING!!! You spend $30k on a car you think they could've splurged for a $1 flower for me. Anyway, I immediately bought two gerber daisies, a pink one & a purple one, and I have a small monkey that hugs around my vase

When I bought my NB, it had NADA in the bud vase!! Now I have two small American and POW/MIA flags in it.
