Ok i see NYC, NJ, MD spotted you threads, but nothing for Long Island. Maybe it's because you guys are too cool for a thread like this haha j/k. But anyway thought I'd start one.

I spotted a Lightning Yellow 8 parked off of a back road on the North side of the Broadway Mall in Hicksville. Whoever's car this is oh boy is it hot, full MS kit, nice set of wheels, strakes, definately done up right good luck with it buddy whoever you are!

 

Yeah, I always thought we needed a thread, I think I even started one... but they just keep sinking out of sight. :<

 

I spotted a red 8 with aftermarket rims and a mazda symbol sticker on the driver's side rear door on wednesday in Hauppauge at the Wind watch hotel. I'm from st louis (yeah I know) and was there on business. I just happned to see this thread and had to post up.

 

well its cuz we see LI as part of NYC so we its included in my eyes. But good thing you made a LI thread.

I saw one on my way to long island via Cross Island Expressway around 10ish am today

 

I just saw a silver on route 109 in babylon but the plates were from Arizona

 

I saw a red (not sure which red) 8 in Glen Cove on Glen Cove Rd. around 1:10 PM today. I was in my Dad's lexus Suv so you probably didn't see me.

Any takers?

 

I dont want to sound like a snobby dik, but li is def not NYC.
Especially when everyone tells directions by making a left or a right by the 7-11/ pizza hut...
Plus you guys dont pay city tax either.
Hell even staten island is questionable... hehe

 

SSJ 909 - you sound like a snobby dik.

 

lol how about we start off by everyone whos in LI write in this thread haha.

 

You're right we don't pay city tax, we pay up the *** in property tax anywhere from 6500-15000 a year!!!!!

Ok back to the thread, good to see that people are finally posting here. I know it's a little corny the "I spotted you" YEAH! But it's fun at the same time so keep posting.

 

u sold the rx8 ?

 

I have to agree with SSJ here. I grew up in the city and it's way different from being on LI. In fact the only reason I'm not going to move back into the city is my 8. I wouldn't keep a car in the city.

Here are your general rules of thumb:
1. If you have a law you probably do not live in the "city"
2. If your primary mode of transportation isn't the subway you probably don't live in the city.

Hell I used to live in queens and I still didn't consider that really the city. Though the city is now safer then any of the other boroughs for the most part.

Oh, and Staten island is NOT in the city, I don't know what taxes they have to pay but it doesn't matter. They're not.

He does, but I understand where he is coming from, when one deals with all one has to deal with when living in the city or the boroughs and then someone who lives in a very sub-sub-urban area says "I'm a New Yorker" one gets this urge to twist their wannabe heads off. This also includes people from the bible belt who have lived in the city for a couple of months or a year or two and say with confidence they are a New Yorker.

When talking to people who live in another country or in a far away state you can say you live near NYC. But to in state people when you say you live in NY, NYC, or The City you mean Manhattan, otherwise you say Queens, Bronx, Brooklyn, LI, etc.

 

yO MY man i dont want to sound like a snoby dick either but LI is becoming NYC.

Do you watch the news, do you hear of all the **** that be going down in LI. Ppl getting shot at, houses getting robbed its all becoming more and more frequent.

not counting the ganggs that have moved into suffolk county. Trust me kid LI in 10-15 years is gonna be NYC.

LI is gonna get worse and worse. YOu see patches of Hoods that are bad next to good ones. EXample, my moms lives in Baldwin, beautiful place, next door is (**** i forgot the name) but its ghetto hahah.

LI is going to become NYC whether you want to admit it or not, watch the news ppl. I never seen LI so much in the news in the past few years.!

And yes SI is questionable, they got there own lil world over there. ITs a totally diff experience and mindset!

I work in Valley Stream, got family in Baldwin, i can write in this thread. I spend a lot of time in LI.

 

I do mean to sound like a snobby dik....

I just wanted to say that....

 

I actually wasnt refering to crime. Manhattan is a pretty safe place except for the bad areas. Larger crimes have generally moved away from the city.

 

the ghettoness is growing from the west to east of li. blame elmont. haha

 

Not yet trying to sell it now.

 

You just like saying *** and DIck in the same sentence. I dunno how your married,, your such a flaming homo. Tried to cup my butt when you came to the cribs!



LI got mad RX-8 but i think there older gents/ladies and dont really care about internet stuff such as FORUMS

 

Yo i been going to school in Harlem for 5 years , never had a problem with anyone. **** goes down but ppl keep it on the DL cuz they dont need the attention.

I was out in Pachaoughe sumthing liek that, was chillen with this chick and a bunch of pussies rolled thru popping **** in a ford truck. I told em off and they took off once they saw my pplz lol

 

Hahha sad to say but TRUE, elmont is close to queens and its moving Eastward. Watchout LI guys pretty soon your gonna be up in MA.

We was looking at houses in ValleyStream / Elmont. Yo no joke **** was like 8 mile in chicago.

1 side was all the super nice houses owned by mainly caucasians (some arabs/asain), the other side of the road the houses were NICe but not as nice nah mean, and they were more hispanics and blacks. ITs funny its like a lil segregated nice neighborhood. THen u get the knuckles heads from neighboring towns going thru the nice hoods and ******* it up for the rest of them.

But its life man, **** happens.

Harlem is becoming the ritzy hood righ tnow. i See sotheby's buying and selling houses over here like its nothing. Gentrification at its best. Ever since clinton moved to 125th the ppl thought it was good. Hes pushing all the ppl with less money further north into BX. Trust me harlem in 10 years is gonna be for rich folks with $$$.

I been going here for 5 years and yo i seeen all these burnout houses mad ghetto areas become beautiful houses with $3000 rents/month. ******* sick, no 1 can pay that, unless u paid. Areas where ppl got robbed on a frequent got mad cops, have grass and plants and ppl walking with babies and dogs. Its really changing!..

So its life man all hoods go thru these trends in NYC i guess its LI time to have a lil taste!

Man sounds like we need to rebuild the Berlin wall here.

 

I hear you. Just moved to Madison WI last month, Why you ask? Just got married to a Wisconsiner plus cheaper living and better pay. But I still have my house in LI. Since were coming back in 2 years. I didn't find this site till I get to WI. Wish I would of found it earlier would of been nice to have a meet.

 

make meets in WI. har har

 

Actually the good thing out here is the track events, they have tracks all over the place. We just went to Road America 2 weeks ago. Sick track 4.5 miles and 14 turns, never new the 8 could do what it did . Must say driving on a track is exhilarating, nearly pissed my pants.
