My 8 and the beater ;)

I'm still waiting for my new rims to come in, but I finally got some pics with my other car. Sorry, its not a vr-4, but I got a pretty good deal on it. Possibly for sale soon, so I can buy more stuff for the 8. :D

That's your beater car?? Ha ha. I bet you drive it when it's a frigid 20C in Hawaii (I don't know the conversion to F). Great pics.

The rims I'm waiting for actually are going to be white, in the 19" variety. Hopefully they come in next month...

The "beater" part is actually kind of a joke. The gt looks decent in the pictures, but it needs paint, has no interior, no ac, a very stiff ride, battle scars, and stuff like that. Its also very loud and uncivilized. :D Thats most of why its the beater.

The pictures are actually in Kekaha, on the westside, where I live.

Unfortunately, the gt is an auto SL, so the 8 is faster. I am running out of reasons to keep the gt. The 8 is waaaaay more fun. :D
