Citroen, love it...2CV, right? Cheveaux...2 horse. 2 HP. Imagine that. My Dad was telling me stories about smoking hash and driving around the mountain roads in his 2CV.

PS...wtf, leaking tails already? Issue?

Yep. 2CV. I love those quirky old cars.

Re: Taillights - Its a Subaru Its been an issue since the car was released. Originally it was thought that the line workers were overtightening the nuts causing the housing to crack. Toyota has a new TSB regarding it (waiting to get my hands on a copy), but the general consensus is that its a gasket issue.

There was a guy at C&C this past weekend (had the other asphalt FR-S, at the far end of my shitty pic) that actually makes new gaskets. Hes bringing a set to the next C&C for me. My passenger side had some condensation in it a few weeks after I bought the car. I noticed it while pumping gas. By the time I got home it was gone. The driver side fogged up once as well, but hasn't since. The dealer ordered me a new light, but I havent gone in yet.

My pass side headlight fogs up whenever I wash the car, but I've opened the headlights up in the past which is probably why thats happening. I also use hot water, and when its 40* out, that certainly isnt helping. Ill be opening them up in the near future to reseal.

It was C&C Williamsburg. And as I said in the other thread, I decided to sleep in.

Next week is C&C Richmond. I will be there for that one. Hopefully Ill have another mod on the car by then (nothing too special).

Dude, my RSX's tails used to get the same thing...like an inch of water in them. Had them replaced under warranty and then...AGAIN it happened. My solution? I ended up drilling a little 2MM hold in the bottom corner of it to let the water drain out. Probably not the best solution but I didn't know what else to do!



Yeah, thought I recognized it...that car is WELL maintained!

Hope you're well, buddy. Your car is stunning, as always.

Nothing major, just saving up some cash at the moment. I might be moving again, so all car projects have been frozen (aside from returning the CL to stock). If all goes well, Ill be able to get some stability in life by mid-May and hit the FR-S hard with mods.

I actually like the plate, but I dont think I could ever get a personalized place. If I did though, it would be:

I think those tails look kinda cool. Not a fan of the widebody, though.

VW's doing good, a few little annoyances here and there but it's moving. Hoping to clean it up a little come summer.

How goes the car shopping? I noticed you were close to buying Sly's teg!

Okay, I don't know if it makes me incredibly intuitive but I thought this applied more when I read your plate idea. I didn't see "Not a TC"...I read "No Tact" in which case I not only thought it clever...but also VERY appropriate.
