Lol, a scooby isn't going to be any cheaper. Sports cars are pricy, that's the bottom line.

I was actually thinking of going back to my original idea and buying a motorcycle as a replacement. Before I bought the 8, I was going to but I had a girlfriend at the time that talked me out of it with bjs and such

My biggest issue with has milage is I like going out to my brothers a lot where we go out and drink and pick up women. Right now that's running me at least 30 in gas alone a trip. Now I know the sensible thing would be to stop going as much but it's summer and it's Santa Monica. Beautiful girls everywhere. I will still be around hanging out with you guys, I am a rotor man for life

Well, if you are seriously going through with it, hit me up if you are parting out.

tbh, i'd love to get back into riding one day once my finances begin to agree with me again.

also

+1 on Bj's

It's amazing what them ***** will make a person do. @_@'

You guys at like vultures. Why would I part my car out? The only thing I might do is sell my coil overs but maybe. I believe selling privately as a whole will get me more. If you know anybody looking for an 8, let me know. I haven't decided quite yet but I'm leaning

imo, leaving the coilovers on would be a selling point. But then again that's just me - i just know if i were buying a used car privately, seeing quality parts already installed properly would sway me more to the buying side. Of course for me, i would ask if you've popped the motor or not too lol.

Good luck tho...and yes, Socal is notorious for Part-Out Vultures...don't be surprised.

****...I already have 3 people lined up for my wheels, 2 people lined up for my metra-kit and 5 lined up for my coilovers for my expected 'untimely' demise :

yeah I'm diggin the SS lines pedal feels more solid. Don't really know how else to explain it other than that. I don't think it's just my inmagination either, I could be wrong. To me definately more solid though.

Neiron: SS brake lines are the way to go, and as you said the feel is a bit more 'solid', especially during canyon runs or heavy breaking where the rubber lines would be expanding.


So... is it SevenStock 15 yet???

As far as what I've got planned its nothing over the top. Although the car should look almost completely differant from last year. (if all goes as planned)
