lol you can drive it any time you want man, as long as you don't crash it i dont have a problem, anything for a fellow rotary brother! we can go hit up malibu sometime and pick on s2000 guys

 

so i guess thats end of the malibu runs?

 

You guys local to Malibu will have to carry it on for a little while. I may have time during the summer to catch up with you guys.

I'm a little burned out of Malibu, for right now....and then there is gas prices.

 

We have to have at least one get together during the summer!

 

yeah, maybe just do a BIG run some time this summer for "old times" sake....

 

Dont be afraid to make a BIG RUN out to the San Berdino Meet...some of us made out to Malibu Meets.

 

yeah, VERY good point Lesper. Micahel made it out there last month.....
Maybe you guys could caravan out to SB one month

 

malibu be very quite about that place. another accident this time fatal. ferarri again

 

waiting for the rp short shifter guys

 

man if I want to go to do a cruise with the 8 I would have to ask the wife for the 8 since I lost it when I got the WRX.

 

your wife took the 8????? ..... or did you let her have it ????

 

i must have missed the post where you got the WRX congrads, and glad you kept the 8. I will actually be in Chatsworth this Saturday too bad the short shifter wont be ready by then.

 

You'd be a week early.

 

man how sad, i was looking forward to lots of great malibu drives, but it looks like all the old timers have given up, im grateful i caught the last one. how many was there anyway? like 20? i regret missing the earlier ones...

 

Yeah it kinda sucks, if I could I would have a malibu cruz twice a month but i guess everything has to come to an end. Anyways I will be selling my 8 shortly so we should have one last big meet.

 

same here....i'm glad i was able to go to one as well. even though i got split from the rest of the group after we had lunch.

 

Well I got her a 02 WRX wagon, because the 8 was getting to small for me with the kids in it and we like the convinience of a wagon. Well I found me a good deal that I couldn't refuse.

I had a friend with a WRX wagon that was modded. He was trading it. So he need it to put it back to stock. So intrade of stock parts and labor I got me a set of Cusco coil overs, a TBE 3" exhaust, bigger turbo fuelsystem upgrade and ECU with no money out of the pockets. I sold the turbo, fuel upgrade and ECU. We were going to sell the 8 then she said that she is to attached to the 8 to sell it. If I wanted to sell it I had to work magic and giver something as unique as the 8. This is where my magic was coming in. I told her "okay I get you a FD" but that didn't work since she stil needs the room for the kids which the fit perfect in the 8 if I'm not in it. One thing about being unique I was driving the 8 today and I was in a stop light. I looked around and I see like 2 or more of the same car (ie 2 escalades, 3 3 series BMWs etc) and I was glad that I was the unique one.

So to answer you question, I let her have it but I lost it at the same time.

 

yeah one big meet this summer like jedi suggested would be great. why are you selling your 8?

haha honda it still seems like the 8 was never the car for you and you've been destined for the RX-7 the whole time...it just seems that way from your post...

 

you too!? why is everyone selling their 8's

 

DUH!!! Actually I want to have both. My original idea was to have the 8 a daily and FD for fun.

 

i dunno why, but lately i'm very much infatuated w/ the saturn sky (pontiac solstice) and am tempted to trade in the beamer for the gxp version of the sky when it comes out... that is probably the only car on the road that, in my opinion, resembles the 8 in style & uniqueness. but, if they ever become a dime-a-dozen, i guess i might change my mind...

 

I see a Solstice in every corner here. I guess they will get more popular now in the summer.

 

yah, i really like the way the black ones look. the gxp's will be turbo'd w/ more hp. i've just never liked american cars. so, i'm kinda at a loss as to why i like this one...

 

you're looking at getting rid of your bimmer? or you're only getting rid of it if you get the sky/solstice?

what kinda bimmer is it? like, what series, yr. etc.

 

i'm not selling my 8 but umm....yea, you know the story
