yea i know him he lives in bayridge owns a 911 GT2

 

Nope. I had 2 people close to getting it, but then they flakes out due to not being able to sell their cars

How's your job search going?

 

^ I thought that car would be long gone. Car is nice and your price is more than fair.

 

Dan! What's up man. Once the spring hits I'd like to bring my Jeep out to you and get it tinted up. I'll be in touch. Hope all is well!

 

Hey Matt long time no see. No problem, whenever you need it done.

Guessing you have been using your car as much as me.lol

 

I've put 10 miles on the TSX in the last month, tops. I just take it for a short spin every couple of weeks, between snow storms, to keep things running okay. As soon as spring hits it needs an oil change, pronto. It's overdue but since I'm not driving it I've been lazy.

The Jeep is pretty much on full duty at this point.

 

Mine has been a struggle to keep running this winter. The battery in the car (1year old) is a piece of crap. Acura should not have their own batteries. I have to go out and run the car at least every other day or it dies. The only miles I put on my car was to the gas station and a couple of trips out of the garage into the driveway.

 

and here I am approaching 44k...believe it or not, I bought this car to be driven. About to get the extended AcuraCare warranty too.

 

Different people want different things out of their vehicles, Leo. I'm not interested in sitting in mine in traffic every day going 5mph, I enjoy the car out on the twisty backroads and playing around on the weekend. The Jeep's perfect for daily BS driving, though, especially in crud weather

Dan, you need a Red Top. I put mine in a couple of years ago and it owns. Acura's batteries are garbage.

 

I don't actually use my car for daily driving, it's all weekend driven miles. I'm in PA twice a week on a 75mi each way trip.

 

See, that's more like it. I like road trips, I just don't have occasion to make them often. But rush hour driving blowwwwws.

 

I don't think the red top will fit under my plastics, they seem to be taller.

Leo you got to remember that we have other cars for daily driving. I just put new tires on wifeys car I let that one get salted and snow driven

 

I was thinking about a top of the line Interstate battery. They seem to be really good.

 

I feel like there must be other AZiners with TL's running a Red Top if you search? Maybe they're not running the engine bay coverings, though, I'm not sure. I had an Interstate in my Jeep that didn't die until recently (I bought the truck at 146k and the battery lasted until 159k, who knows how old it was before I got it).

 

yea, Dan. I keep forgetting that people outside of my village own more than 1 car and got garages and everything.

I have to pay for 1 spot so it doesn't even enter my mind to get a 2nd car for driving

 

ya know I was just thinking. I have a expired red top sitting in the back yard, I should take a few measurements. I have only seen red tops in tl's with no battery cover but then again if someone had one with the cover on I wouldn't be able to see it anyway lol

I also want to get a battery tender for the winter months.

 

No doubt. I am sure parking spots are not cheap in Manhattan.

 

Do any of you guys even want to consider that supercharged 05 TL I posted earlier? Looks like a lot of work put into it and the price isn't too crazy considering what you're getting.

looked like a nice car. Thats all you Leo! offer 12k lol

 

You have no idea how much I want that car...but right now is not the right time for me to be learning to drive stick...and my wife may have something to say about it.

I'm stuck with my RL for the foreseeable future...I mean I'm getting an extended 4 year warranty so it must be pretty bad...as bad as owning an RL is I guess

 

I was actually looking at that car as a potential investment cause I think it's very poorly marketed.

Then again, if a guy owns a 911 GT2 like was previously posted, maybe he doesn't really care all that much.

 

You could learn stick in an afternoon. Let wifey have the RL and be done with it.

oh and by the way, Poor Leo "stuck" with an RL lol

 

yea...I can't say I'm THAT unhappy with my car, I'm loving every minute of it, but probably not as much as the car deserves. People make a big deal about luxury and wooden trim etc...I don't really care for that at this point in life, I hate the seats which can't hold me when going through turns...

anyway...I must be a spoiled brat with this car...should use my brothers Civic for awhile to get that out of the way.

 

That will do it. I drive the grand am alot now and when I get back in the TL it just puts a big smile on my face. Driving a car that has so much less makes you appreciate how good we have it.

 

I'm just waiting to get my hands on some serious summer tires so I can really push SH-AWD in corners...

Maybe I'll even make time to patch up small fings and finally hook up my fogs...

 

Yea I am looking for some sticky summer tires also. maybe some sticky dot tires

 

Leo I know that guy

 

Harry! Whats up?

 

And wassup Dan did u get your new ride yet?

 

Nothing much waiting for this winter to go away so I can pick up a new car

 

Hate my Acura now I never drive it anyways last time I drove it was a week before Christmas and now the battery died on me

 

No didn't get the new car, not gonna happen either. I'll tell you all about it when I see you.

 

lol at you guys.

Leo, Dan is right. You can learn to drive a manual transmission in one day! I knew the concept of manual all of my life and never put it to the test. The first time i tried I believe was with Solo for less than 10 minutes. I did stall a few times. The second time i tried was in CT and I did fairly well. Then I drove randy's car and wallah...i have the hang of Manual. The last time I stalled was with carrie and I have driven a lot of manual cars since then. Shiit, I was driving a 6 series manual up and down Northern BLVD here in woodside the other day. It is really easy, but a hassel in the city for sure.

 

Hahahahahaha I remember Shawn. You drove Carries Accord when I was at her house, you did good lol

 

I cant believe I haven't sold my car either, but then again there's a lot of broke people out there with nothing better to do then call people who are selling cars.

I got a call today from a guy, offered me $13,000 cash. I told him I dont care is its check or cash and wont sell it for less than $18,000. He comes back to me with a counter offer of $14,500 cash. I was like "I just told you, I wont sell it for less than 18,000". Then he tells me, I'm not a dealer and I cant sell it for that high. When I told him thats below the value of the car, he told me I'm never getting that price and I better take his offer.

I mean WTF is wrong with people?


I cant even show the car right now, since its under a mountain of snow.

 

Zhenya, you at work right now? I got a call from someone who sounded just like you, was wondering if it was you

 

Yeah, I'm at work, but I haven't called anybody in the last hour

I have been told theres a Zhenya look-alike running around.

Maybe he's my voice twin

 

Z just for the record, I would sell my car for no less than 25k thats the bottom line. I know yours has a scratch but I would not even sell it for the price you are asking

 

Dan, I'm not sure you're in tune with the current market...25k is just not happening...

and Z, the guy also had the same name as you...call made 1:17pm from 646 #.

Never knows...

 

Leo, I could take my car and crash it into a tree, insurance would pay out 27 and change
