Cool As one of the long time members of this forum

I just wanted to stop and say hello and see who is still here. Shawn S? How the hell are you? Sooper still around?

Anyway here's the auto update:

01 CL-S long gone, replaced with G35 Coupe which I still have and love. After 4.5 years it still has only 29K miles on it. Since it is all but useless in the white powdery stuff, I have gone through my first "winter vehicle" (96 Exploder) and moved on to my second (02 Tahoe).

In the meantime, the red GTO convertible remains a continuing project. I am trying to make it something other than a 50-50 car (looks good from 50' or 50MPH). New top, convert to front disc brakes, rebuild front end suspension and the wallet still empties!

Other than that what's new with you folks?

Scooter still has his CL, but only pops into ramblings a couple times a year...

Lots of the OG's have disappeared...

Nice cars ya got there. Sorry to see an Acura man change families but I'd probably do the same for a red G35 coupe with brembos. Like the Goat, good luck with the upgrades hope she doesn't drain your wallet completely

Still stop by here once in a while, up to 130k miles on the CL-s,, l use Amsoil every 10k miles, it's on the 200k program. My 66 mustang gt fastback being completely rewired under dash. Had restored a 92 legend 210k miles, kid had it for two years then got re-ended (totaled), just finished minor re-furbishing a 94 Legend I bought at a estate sale, 98k mile and still look like new. These things hold up very well after being rear ended at 60mph's. Good for the older teenagers.

<------- Been a member since 2000... still have the car.. running beautifully! 105,000 miles.
Not as aggressive on this forum as the names you mentioned, but yes, most of them have moved on to other (and better) cars... sad.
