That's cheating, dadeck! I meant nearby! It IS a Philly Lounge.

In that case...Sanibel-Captiva.

i drove up from DC last week on business, and stayed at the Downtown Marriot at 12th and Market. Drove the Rex, and it was a nice drive. Didnt' let the valets park the 8, so did the self park thing in a nice garage across the street on Filbert. I must say there are some big potholes in Philly though. Manholes are really low also. And whats with all the bags and debris flying everywhere? i guess it was windy.

All in all, had a nice time. Philly's cool.

ha, i did drive in at night, around midnight to be exact, and seriously, i felt like an M1 tank on a mine field dodging huge potholes, and bags and leaves, and bottles rollin on the streets. not sure where the leaves came from. last time i check fall ended a few months ago

i've lived around philly all my life and now that i have my 8, i try to avoid going to the city as much as i can, unless i can hitch a ride in my gf's beater :hahano: had a prelude with nice rims prior to the 8, it fought against the philly streets, and the streets won :mad:

Philly streets ALWAYS win! I have problems dodging stones that trucks throw off on the Schuykill x-way... :mad:

gotta love the alternating one way streets in center city too.

Whenever I go into Philly (or Trenton for that matter), I take my beater car.

DukeGG1 02-01-2006 09:14 PM

Anyone going to the Auto Show next week?

SilverStreak 02-02-2006 02:31 PM

If I get to the Auto Show it will probably be this Sunday, got other plans this Saturday and next weekend.

The reason for all of our potholes, we don't have enough snow to fill them in this year.

LOL, shhhhhh, don't jinx it!

Then again, I swear I can feel the tread melting off my snow tires :(

eastaznboi 02-02-2006 09:12 PM

it's been great without the snow, hope it stays that way
