Hi Yumcha, how's life?
Adam, I don't like that...Justin LITERALLY was the one that insisted we do the PPI, have Gerzand look it over AND stop by his mechanic's so that I knew exactly what I was getting into .

Walter, buy wheels then I'll answer questions.
Or did you buy them? I legitimately didn't see the question or wheels in question though.

Hey J, I'm done with that car. He HAS to be hiding something. He won't let me PPI it. Forget it.

He gave me the VIN to check "le autofax" (), but those things don't tell much. I want to know what shape the compliance bushings are in, what shape the engine mounts are in, what shape the swaybar endlinks are in, etc, etc.

Yes, all that stuff is replaceable, but I've already done it once on my current TL and I don't want to do it again. I was hoping we could all have a Type S circle jerk, but alas, I guess I'll have to sit out on this one figured spaceman and I could have our own Base 6MT circle jerk, but even he has left me hanging. One man circle jerks aren't much of a circle.

At least you'll have the biggest forearms of the group.

We all met on a car forearm. I like that one.

Adam, if you have the time and patience I'd encourage you too, but I get you. As I go through the blue one I keep remembering things I fixed/upgraded/cleaned up on the black one and think, dafuq am I doing going backward. I am staying confident that in the end though, it'll all be worth my time and I'll have a very unique car.

For some reason. lowered black TL's, I see everywhere...(austin )

Hey dude. Busy...work has been hectic as we are in the midst of a project and we recently reorged into a new department.

On the personal front, Little Cha will be receiving some help to get him walking starting at the end of Feb. every week for 4 months. We're also building a new place and so, been busy picking out plumbing fixtures, appliances...up next: cabinetry (for kitchen) and surfaces (i.e. counter-tops). We also need to line up the meeting with the electrical people.

Completion date is sometime late this year. We are thinking mid-November? Haven't broken ground yet though.

Congrats again on the ride! How's everything else?

So, of the regulars in here, swooshie doesn't post much anymore...if at all. Maj wants to stay away. And Crabs won't post because he needs something epic for his milestone post?

Where is polobunny? He become stew...?

Unless they get the same car

Yum, glad to hear it is all going so well, man...good luck little dude, I see soccer in your future! And piano, of course. So he can grow up to be a peanist like his father!

Z monster is good, keeping us laughing every day with her little personality...she spent 2 hours in the garage listening to Future/Drake last night while I swapped wheels and tinkered. Didn't cry once...had her on the couch for that Adele performance and she started crying. My girl!

Ask Miz, asianspec, et al...they all got robots.


Sure, the colors for some of the robots were..."salmon". But, that was on purpose.
