View Full Version : FD silver SPOTTED driving in the pouring rain.... and it was NOT MELTING!!! Footman 10-08-2008, 09:12 PM Neo!!! It did not melt as we suspected! you're now safe to come out! Sanguine 10-08-2008, 09:23 PM I apologize beforehand for this pun... FDs are far too sweat to take out in the rain. Yeah, I feel dumber now... Thief 10-08-2008, 09:36 PM Andrew stop lying. rotarygreg 10-08-2008, 09:48 PM whats going on here...? Neo 10-08-2008, 11:17 PM Footman, Do you have any sort of details regarding the FD? Wheels? Any exterior addons? I know more than a few FD owners who drive their cars in the spring/summer/fall months. I even know a few who drive them in the winter! *gasp* I like to keep mine as close to showroom condition as humanly possible. :) Thief 10-08-2008, 11:28 PM whats going on here...? Neo is a CLAIMED FD owner. But no one's ever seen his car. We think it's just a Tonka or a Hot Wheels that he's got. R.P.M. 10-08-2008, 11:50 PM Hey come on now, dont bug Neo about his FD...he'll leave the forum lol. Chris has a very nice FD if everyone must know. Thief 10-09-2008, 12:26 AM Hey come on now, dont bug Neo about his FD...he'll leave the forum lol. Chris has a very nice FD if everyone must know. How much did he pay you to say that? ;) rotarygreg 10-09-2008, 07:04 AM oh, well of course you've never seen it...its outside the matrix and you havent been awakened yet. lol. Greg Footman 10-09-2008, 08:11 AM The silver FD was driven by some brown dood in a lightly tinted car. No rear spoiler. Some aftermarket rims, and I'm not sure about the exhaust. I was travelling on Steeles Ave eastbound just past Kennedy Rd. He pulled out of Pacific Mall and went westbound on Steeles Ave. This happened around rush hour yesterday in pouring rain I emphasize. No paint streaking occured hahahahah Agent008 10-09-2008, 08:34 AM Neo is a CLAIMED FD owner. But no one's ever seen his car. We think it's just a Tonka or a Hot Wheels that he's got. I have seen it a few times.. But come to think about it, I have never seen under the hood so for all I know it sports a V6. :lol2: Neo 10-09-2008, 08:44 AM Footman, That might have been 7_rocket. He's usually in that area. R.P.M. Thanks for the comment. There are few people who can appreciate what it takes to keep a car that clean. ;) Agent008, I think you've seen under the hood at least 3 times. :p: Footman 10-09-2008, 08:49 AM Neo, I am the same as you, just that I have to drive mine all year round! Neo 10-09-2008, 09:01 AM I remember those days. I had to drive my FD around all season for the first 2 years. I can't remember how many times I had to wash the bloody thing because of the stupid rain!! I use to go through alot of Mother California car wash. Not to mention lots of hours cleaning the thing to make it look emaculate. I don't have that kind of time anymore. So thankfully I was able to afford a second car. The FD hasn't seen a full car wash in over 2yrs. I drive it 2-3 days straight (weather permitting) and then I do a small detail cleanup. No need for soap and water. This way the wax stays on the car the entire year. :) rotarygreg 10-09-2008, 08:59 PM speaking of silver FDs, i drove one today, wow. i was so suprised at the torque. it was almost violent...guess im just used to the power coming on so slow with the 8. i wouldnt drive one in the rain either...you'd be waggin your tail all over the road, haha. i have a heavy foot though, so things would get out of hand quickly. haha greg Thumper3322 10-09-2008, 09:46 PM Neo is a CLAIMED FD owner. But no one's ever seen his car. We think it's just a Tonka or a Hot Wheels that he's got. I go with TONKA!! Neo 10-10-2008, 07:25 AM rotarygreg, I remember one time when I first got the car, I was driving along Bathurst and Steeles in the pouring rain. The intersection is a bit misleading in the wet. 1 of the rear tires dipped into a puddle and that sent the car almost sideways! Thankfully I caught it and straightened it out. And this was just mild throttle. Not boosting, taking it nice and easy. The rest of traffic got really scared! They thought I was going to go into the oncoming lanes! lol Suffice to say everyone stayed 3 car lengths away from me the whole way up to home. :) I hate the DSC! The first thing I disable in the Miata everytime I start her up is that stupid DSC. Too bad there wasn't an option to delete that "feature" when I got the car. Rotary Mike 10-10-2008, 09:35 AM Neo, Don't worry! You car isn't the only one that melts! http://lonelystreets.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/melting-car.jpg |
