Haha, they are still in California, it's my house for now!!!

She's my fake wife, but she's moving to Chile to teach school in July, so we'll probably go our separate ways after that.

Haha, agreed. I HAD one until I let a friend back in Houston borrow it, and it became "lost"

its worth it though. played a movie through a computer last night and it fills the room with crisp sound and good amount of bass without a seperate woofer. companion 2 is only $79 at the outlet store if its in stock. although i bought a new one since they were out and wanted one so bad

You need to get to know the back-road network that exists between Hillsboro and Wilsonville...

Roy Rodgers sux... Go Old Tualatin Sherwood, You basically jump onto it right after you get out of sherwood. There's a couple high speed corners as well as several 15's and 20's... lots of places to pass if you get stuck behind a loser. Good times.

I live down the street from ROy Rodgers, it does suck, when the limit is 55mph and like he said, some old lady will pull out of the Nursery going 30mph, it makes you boil. I'm in the middle of Wilsonville and Hillsboro, but I would prefer Wilsonville because I can always shop at Fry's, whats there in Hillsboro?!

So i was out in Milwaukie (SP) looking at a house, and i spotted a 07-08 TypeS NBP on Black Chrome ASpecs, and ASPEC kit/Suspension.

Gave the guy a nod of approval and the clown turned his nose to the air...slowed down....rolled up his windows and drove back by me. I love it when old guys get pissed when i drive the same car as them with more shit done to it.

Cant wait untill i am old so i can be a dick head too!

Atleast the guy behind him in a nice lowered A4 was cool and gave a nod back to me when i noticed his car.

Haha..u prob have but mine isn't that noticeable yet. Worked my ass off thru 4 years of high school to get this car for college..only had it for a year now and haven't had a lot of money to mod it..mainly just maintenance. Only thing not stock right now is 17" chrome rims. I'm startin to change it up tho..just got Redstuff and Ima order Rotora x-drilled/slotted as soon as I get my next check and paintin the calipers red. Then I think Ima jump on an OEM front I've got my eye on..
I got pics on my facebook
http://www.facebook.com/album.php?ai...7&l=bedd0c7c8c
Hopefully it works.
Haha..last pic was at a friend's house and we were bored so we seafoamed. Crazy smoke..pic does it no justice
