Lately, I have been showing up there with so many different cars, they keep clowning me about it. There is a latina chick too that goes there with a BB. Don't let the one kid with the 350Z start talking to you about it, he'll never shut up.
I've never really had them give me any **** about having an 8.

It's funny cause i went to school with the kid with the gto, it actually has an ls1 in it. The kid with the 350 is really good friends with my other friend that works there, he used to have an rsx i believe...

There is also a guy that works there that drives that really nice red camaro.

I'll be there in the beaterbimmer. The 8 is officially sold to a pretty excited guy from Dayton.

Sad and happy at the same time. Loan and car shopping will commence next week. Well, I already found a car, just need to get a loan that i'm happy with.

Kevin, we're gonna keep you as an honorary member of the 8 club. The sacrifices you made helping us out with our car issues, your organization and moderator skills, and the free beer you supplied at your house when we came over. LOL!

Good luck with the car purchase. Let us know what you end up with.

Fuz, congrats!
I'm coming down to the fuel today, so if you see this post, and if you have energy in the morning, would you bring me the wheels? if not, no biggie, I don't use them anyway...

BBRX8,
are you coming to the fuel today? if you see this before you leave, could you bring me the brakes?
if not, again, not a big deal.

just couldn't decide last night, and now, I got up and just can't wait to drive my 8... lol
now I gotta wash my car real quick, and change wheels before I leave...

That's what you get for buying a TeeYotta. Should have bought a used Mazda.

Engine probably blew out years ago.

I've seen it too. I normally don't hang around S. Lebanon, but there's some good roads out of there that parallel the river.

Some of the guys meet at Fuel Coffee on Saturday's down on riverside which runs below Columbia Parkway. I've fit it into my weekly schedule. It's a large mix of people and cars. It's a lot of fun if you have a chance to make it down.

I think you're confused Steve, Wendy's car is red.

I know how you feel about getting car stuff James. I'm lucky in that I can buy a lot of what I want, although if I get too much while I'm out here I hear about it when I get home! Funny she didn't complain much when it was for her car.

I just missed out on a nice set of Recaros that would have gone in the 7 perfectly. I've pretty much decided that if I can find another set like I want, one will go in the Miata. Those things are just so damn comfortable.

The rear spoiler doesn't cut it for me but the splitter looks pretty good.

I have to agree that it looks better without the spoiler. That splitter is sexy looking though.

Thinking of leaving it black like the one in the picture. Ideally, that is how I would want my car to look too, coilovers, splitter, and MY02's
Looks really good with the splitter.

Who's going to Fuel Saturday? It may be my last chance for several weeks due to some minor medical stuff that will knock me out of commission for a few weeks.
