do NOT go with the Pettit unit!

Esmiril is probably your best choice as the Mazsport kit is great but pricey

HOLY CRAP JUN... CONGRATS!

i'm SO freaking jealous! man, u don't know how much i wanted an e46 M3 way back when- until i realized it was going to be like $55k+ for new one.

but, at least now you have some idea as to WHY i had such a hard time giving up my beamer, right? (we finally sold the Acura TL, btw.) even tho my 3-beater isn't an M, there is just something about the way it drives that- to this day- i still love to death.

speaking of which, i just got back from a 6 hour recording session, and my fingers feel like they've been playing barbed wire instead of my guitar. but, anyhow this guy's studio was out in the booney canyons up the 14. and, man, those canyon roads were SO fun to barrel through in my 3... i still love it.

anyhow. CONGRATS and when do we get to see it? i'd love to go for a ride or get a test drive sometime. wink wink

Anyone else having an issue w/ the thread being too wide for there screen?
I've noticed it that last week or so, and I can't figure out why it happens.
And, it's only on this thread. I thought it might have something to do w/ someone's messed up siggy.
As of this post, on my pc there are 4 others on this same page, and none of their siggy's are too big, and there are no pictures.
I have my options set to 50 post per page, so this is the 7 post on this page and the screen's too wide.

i have the saris bones 3 bike rack. never used it on the 8, but it works nicely on sedans, like the beamer. what's nice about this rack is it extends at a 45º angle and your bikes are never anywhere near scratching your bumper or trunk.

congrats on the car Jun, really is a beautiful money munching monster. I know when you were looking for a replacement for your 8, you were looking for something with more power to keep up with your friends. Hope that does the job.

Good luck with your FI project Jerome, I really do wish you luck.

RXZ88M did not sell as Erica posted earlier. Had another buyer come to look at the car on Sunday. He offered me a bit under what i currently owe on the car....I'm considering the offer. This is from an older buyer, who has a 93 Supra....so I would be ok with letting the car go with little concern over how it would be cared for. He wants his mechanic to look at the car prior to purchase. We are trying to arrange something for one of my days off next week.

Guys.....you MUST watch this one....I laugh every time I watch it. Let me know if it is funny, or if it is just one of those "had to be there" moments.

Just an FYI, this is the first time Erica has shot a high powered rifle....she was aware that it would have more kickback than the 22 she was shooting, but we really didn't get enough time to prepare her accurately as she was just too excited to get a round off.

damn it, no youtube here either. I'll have to watch it when I get home.

Keith: how much under what you owe is he offering? IF it's less then 1 payment, it might be a good idea.

about $300 under a car payment so it looks pretty good. Keith and I talked about it and even though the car feels like it should be worth so much more - realistically the mods done to car were for our own enjoyment and not for any monetary return so if we can walk away nearly scott-free than I think we are doing well.
