I remember you! Welcome back and nice R3! I've always toyed with the idea of exchanging my series 1 with a series 2. How are your takes on that notion?

Welcome back! Nice R3 you have there, and my favorite color too. Anyway, is that the San Francisco horizon on the 3rd picture?

I was thinking that picture wasn't SA. It's got CA plates on it too.

Yah I moved to SF less than a year ago...
I love the series 2 in comparison to the series 1
the car feels way more planted especially with the hotchikis sways ohlin coils and beefy tires

If you're in San Francisco, we should meet up, i'm thinking of starting up the nor-cal meets again in the near future. Only reason i stopped was that i got this job and then i got moved to swing shift.
