Same here. No tickets ever for me. I drive like a grandpa.

Only time I've ever gotten pulled over was when the 3G TL was new and I wasn't running any plates.

I got a few parking tickets, because fuck Montreal, but the only time I got a different ticket I forgot to pay my plates. I moved places during August and I was supposed to get my renewal notice (need to renew in September) for them.
Made sure my mail was being redirected, girl at the postal office was a newbie and made it wrong. Few days later someone from postal office calls me and I refill the mail forwarding paper, but those few days left a gap where I didn't get my mail redirected... Forgot about my plates renewal until I got pulled over. $444 ticket. Ouch.

lol don't worry, I get angry when people do that shit, I wouldn't do it. People here have no fucking clue. You're doing 90mph, they're doing 75mph and they think they can be in the fast lane cause they're doing faster than the other lane.

Oh yeah! There was a white one at the car show at the speed shop I stopped at after buying my ATF. Should have took a picture with the racing boobies hunched over but the car had me going more. Real nice stuff. Got a lug nut replacement in the mean time, which I torqued like an infant just so I wouldn't destroy it just in case....

Too much money for me though.
They had a GT-R in white, that M3 in white, a Nascar (I think?), a GC SRT8 in black, a very nice Integra in black and a few other cars. Didn't really stop to watch though. One of the girls tried to hand me over some pamphlet thing about MAD DEAL ON WHEELZ YO but I know better than to show interest when I'm just there to get some free lug nuts.

65%.. you wish. He wasn't trying to race you, he just wanted to show you his CAWC.

Fuck that shit. Their shorts and tops were tight.. sure.. but I had some ATF flush and fill to do that day. Plus I was being followed by the manager, fucking tall black guy... like had to be 6'7" or some shit to go outside in the parts tent to get the lug nuts. No time, sorry ladies.

Lol doesn't work that way. 65% more power than him means HIS car + 65% more of HIS power = M3's power.

And he's about right for a base model TL:

(258hp x 0.65) + 258hp = 425.7hp

Edit: damn he beat me to it

Yeah I realized that's what he meant after it was done.

those silly name records....


I'm in a meeting with a bunch of idiotic project managers who's more concerned about how our Excel spreadsheet is organized than the actual content of the work we're doing... I need a laugh. I try to time AZ laughs with their shitty jokes..

That was like how I felt when I once bit into a Chips Ahoy! cookie without biting a chip. I felt ripped off.
