I think i'm going to repo the rx8 today. She's put more miles the last two months than I did the past year.

how are you going to repo a car that someone bought from you? and it's your own damn fault for letting the 8 go.

She's like a family friend. The car is still under my name. She's made three months of payment on it already, but she's treating it like a commuting car--5k miles in since Feb 10....wtf???!!! I'll fix up the MR2 and she can drive that for a while.

Haha, at least somebody's driving the car nowadays. As I recall the reason why you didn't put mileage on it was because of a constantly dead battery.

ok 5k is rough though.

Nah, not yet. I test drove a really sweet one at the STEALership yesterday though. I walked off because they were being too aggressive. They told me if I didn't buy it today for 20k, someone else was waiting to get it. The car was a 05 BB with 49k on the OD. I was like, uhhhh ok, guess you're gona have to sell it to the other guy then lol

I've gotta head down to Socal this weekend.

We should do a dim sum meetup next weekend. I have BYOBW 2009 on Sunday but Saturday looks decently clear.

Just came back from fast and the furious and I thought the story line was better than the previous ones, but one draw back was the lack of nice cars...
