Hi Johnny, I'm Adam and I like tacos

thoiboi

Justin & I like tacos too. But not store-bought corn-tortillas... Fresh-made masa on the other hand...

Sup Johnny...you visit my hometown and live where I'd like my hometown to eventually be!

Need to plan a meet one weekend for you.

I know I beat my masa by hand too...truly my favorite.

thoiboi

Yeah, getting a Florida gig in winter is nothing to complain about Although Cali isn't too bad to begin with!

Yeah, between the hotel and client site, (a whopping .8 miles), I don't get to see much of Florida.. I am usually only here Mondays-Thursday but have been meaning to stay a weekend to check out the sights and your sexy car too

It indeed IS quite sexy.

So... how about that TSLA stock.. holy shit it took a plunge along with the gas prices It's almost back to when I bought in.

My perfect garage would include my WDP Type S and a White P85D fully loaded )

TacoBello

Johnny, the only question lingering on everyone's mind in the 3G ramblings is:

How do you feel about salad?

We know how he feels...he lurked and decided to introduce himself with a bib on.

Hi Johnny!

I'm Jake, ended up on here because of my ex who had a WDP 6-speed. I'm a BMW fanboi and own two GM products right now. Don't ask why.

Johnny! I'm sure you can figure out my name. I just put myself right out there. Sounds like you have a Kush job traveling between two of the best states in the country!

polobunny

Two GM?

Yukon and a Saturn Vue with extra cargo in the rear.

I love that smiley, I forgot about it. So much better than

Brake_L8

Hey now, it's more plasticky and built worse than a Vue.

Now that I see them side by side the only difference between being naughty and being a pervert is a beard?


I'm shaving.





















my coinpurse.

polobunny

Oh man, a Saturn Vue. AKA Lego truck. Is it red? I used one for a day while I was getting the brakes done on the winter banger last year during winter... it was something. It didn't help that the seat and wheels had zebra covers, there was an Hawaiian flower necklace hanging from the rear view mirror and the only CDs were Eminem albums though.

My first car was a 96 grand caravan... nothing says cool like driving a minivan to high school. Bright side: I became the kid that had a car that could drive a bunch of people at the same time (what max occupancy..)

Jamie's 08 TL

I'm due for a coin purse trim myself.

polobunny

Ever tried looking cool in a Vue with zebra everything blasting Love the way you lie with Rihanna?

That's the price to pay for grinding the brakes pads in the rear to the point the calipers get grinding on the rotor... to the point you get a brake fluid leak... as you exit the highway @ 60mph getting at a red light... on snow... on a day where it's 0F... with no more handbrake...

Drift drift drift TOKYOOOOO!!!!

A match made in purgatory.. WD is really going to be upset

Real men wax

This stuff has over 1K reviews!

Brake_L8

Holyshit, that is quite the mental image... thankfully the Yukon is that awesomesauce blue, and the Firebird is anonymous beige.

I hate how GM put this paint color on literally everything in the late 90s/early 00s, but this is the subject of Project: Flip The Bird:

Majofo

Is that a TX plate? Shieet.. could never find a good condition WS6 in that condition for less than $1k here.

Brake_L8

Yeah, he's from Texas but lives in DC now.

This isn't a WS6, just a Trans Am.

polobunny

Your Yukon is the "rare" teal/blue/green color right? Not a fan of it, but I'm not the one driving it either.

As for the anonymous beige, I don't know why they'd put that shit on a Firebird. Not that's it a crazy car, but that beige shouldn't go on anything with a LS1...
Are you thinking of fixing these little paints chips?

Brake_L8

Yep, it's the rare/extra-cost/love-or-hate blue

I'm going to try and fix the paint on that headlight cover, yes. Need to figure out the color code (it's on the door jamb sticker, just haven't looked) and then I can order some touchup paint.

The front bumper, near the license plate, could use some love:



I'll see how much I can do here with the touchup paint, too.

TacoBello

That's not the worst color out there...

polobunny

Once you give it a proper bath and touch up all these little things I have no fear it will sell for much more than you bought it from. When you have a chance to make easy money like that, I always think it's silly to refuse it.


Also donuts. Don't forget.

Is it manual transmission? For $500...fk it, can't go wrong.

Majofo

Not a WS6.. paid too much

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

I'd pay $1034.50 for a Lingenfelter WS6.

Brake_L8

4-speed automatic!

The 0-60 times for the manual vs. auto are actually within 0.1 seconds of each other. Very much a straight-line car.

And yeah, with a good cleaning and the few issues fixed, I think I'll get $4k for it, easily. Maybe more.

TacoBello

i'll give you $34.50 for it.

Yeah, I actually LOVE buying and cleaning up and touching up and waxing and replacing brakes...then flipping. I should really get into that except most cars down here are NOT clean and are NOT $500.

I have a logistics question, which may differ in Florida.

If you buy a car to flip it...do you normally go through the hassle of insuring and registering to be able to drive it around for testing and to make sure it's reliable etc? Or is the title just signed as the previous owner and skips you and goes right to the person you flip to and no insurance?
