Actually, my long lost uncle was a Nigerian prince. But unfortunately, he died.

Is a 3 car garage that exotic? I'm trying to work the wife to let me get a lift to turn my 3 car into a 4 car.

Worried about the remnants of hurricane season. Never know when you might run into a small puddle and kill the motor...like some people have done...

Next contestant please!

No flooding here, so no puddles to worry about. Nice new roads nearby too, so none of that S Houston pothole mess either.

Really? They are quite common around here on houses of all prices. Mine was nowhere close to 700k and there are cheaper homes with them.

It's always interesting to see how housing differs around the country.

Granted I haven't spent a ton of time in the S2k, but at a hair over 6' here, I never found it uncomfortable.

I was being cheap for years but it was starting to get uncomfortable. So it was either sell the car or pony up for the seat rail. Only 20mm lower than stock but the difference is noticeable. Not gain in leg room but now I feel like I am in the car as opposed to feeling like I am on it.

I'm pretty sure they do. I've seen quite a few 06+ owners with it.

We're pretty much the same height. It's like the car was made just for us.

#thatsthepoint

In other news, winter is officially here. First snow last friday, more expected tomorrow. Time to find a dry day to take the S and get the tank filled before parking it.

Snow today and Friday, will probably drive it next week to get the tank filled up. In retrospect I should have driven it yesterday.

Only the drivers side. The passenger side floor is different in the 06+. Same problem with prebuilt cages like the big Cusco one.
