I'm visiting Cali at the end of next month, woot! I'll be driving out there, and flying back. I'm helping my younger brother and sister move back for school.

you would regret getting mid teens for MPGs on premium fuel @ 5$/gallon though. not to mention crazy ass insurance rates.

yeah, true that. the legacy's mileage probably isn't that good, considering its AWD too.

i wish my camry was a V6...but i could never complain about camry's. it never gave me a single problem, except numerous flat tires on trips to/from hunterdon county

-hello is this steve?
-yeah this is him.
-i'm calling about an email sent regarding an 04 Lexus GS300 sent on cars.com.
-yeah, i gotta say i was pretty disappointed that you guys can't distinguish a lexus from a jaguar. that's a pretty big mistake, im surprised nobody picked it up or fixed it.
-obviously it was a mistake. are you interested in buying the car?
-no.
-so you just sent that email to bust my balls, huh?
-yes.

this is the call i get a 9am this morning from a very angry salesman at richardson imports in NJ. i saw a lexus GS on cars.com, but the pics were of a jag x-type. i sent them an email pointing out their mistakes. i dont know about you guys, but i really hate when dealers mix that shit up. in my mind, theres no excuse for that, especially if you sell cars for a living.

by the way dicorp, your prelude is effing awesome. it looks better and better everytime i see it.

Huh, thats funny, that's the first time I've realized your car is green.

In other news, my exhaust is rattling, so I gotta take it to the shop that put it on and see if they'll fix it.

Thanx dude. I placed last in my class. It was my first time auto-xing. It's much harder than i though. The rust is on the back burner for now. Im fixing my brakes before the next event.

A few supercharged Mini Coopers, a gutted 240SX, an ITR swapped teggy. I was the only one running on street tires, other people run slicks. I forget the rest.

What class do you run in dicorp? Last time I auto-x'ed I ran in one of the stock prepared classes with a wrx, couple rsx's, and a s2000.


I leave for Cancun on sunday, but it looks like it's suppose to rain most of the week

I ran in D Class, one up from stock. Mostly due to suspension upgrades, camber, and full bolt ons.

at our events, WRX and S2K are class A, stock. Miatas and V8 Mustangs are B. and RSX-S is D stock. Prelude is E. Your pairing wasn't terribly fair IMO. AWD>RWD>FWD
