Rain sucks!

I have to wear a jacket and use an umbrella to take pictures, and my car is dirty, dammit!













It rained almost 2 weeks straight! I didn't see the sun for a while. It finally dried out over the weekend, and the weather is now back to normal.

Rain is a good time for pictures with a white car though.

Yea man, that car is beautiful, arguably one of my favorite 8's in this forum. How much did you pay for those rims?

19" VOLKS will run well over 3 grand with tires. It also costs a lot of patience to wait for them to come in.

There is a lot of junk in my trunk, but if you look closely you'll notice that the rear fenders don't arch as high as the front, which adds to the effect.

That last black and white is very similar to a picture I took way back when I first got the car. I noticed someone was using it as their avatar, which I thought was kind of cool.

Danomite: ship your car down here and lets do it!

Why is it that I always hear Trooper's, "Boys In The Bright White Sports Car" in my head whenever I see your car?

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I think the scenery over here also helps my pictures a lot. I do wish there were more RX8's I could do photo shoots with. I think we are supposed to be getting more rain again this week. Today is already starting to look a little cloudy.

I got a bunch of friends with some nice rides too, but every time we get together and plan to go out north shore side, it rains. Its happened a couple times already. One of these days I will make it out there. Gas... $3.20 or somthing like that.
