No, I'm not...he said since our cars are so similar, it was only fair that I get to check out dem headlights before they get modded!

Actually, 8 years is pretty dang good. Sounds like you got your money's worth in that time. Shiiiiet, 3 years would be my longest ownership term.

Wow.

Prior to the FX, I've had the 3.2 CL Type S...When I married my wife, I guess her Mazda3 was mine too until she got rid of it for the Countryman.

So, 4 in total for moi.

This popped up in NY last night... Pretty much exactly what I want. Manual black on red. It's not a Prestige but it's completely loaded + rear sports differential. The good stock wheels. CPO. 25k miles clean AF.

Price is a bit high tho... :/







I'm not a HUGE fan of those tails on red though.... The red on red is meh.

I know, right? It's even harder to match your purse to such a bright color also. I swear, life gets so hard sometimes

That guy was seriously a tool... Not sure why he was so adamant on challenging a bunch of people that have done the actual conversion. He was pretty active on 2g TL then decided to venture out...

almost had a '06 CSX-S (6MT) in there also, but deal fell through. Loved those cars. These days they're all in hurting condition from boy racers slapping on Type R kits on them and just killing the poor K20 engines

it was higher, but not crazy bad to be honest. I have no idea why people were so adamant on stealing these cars. I loved it at first, but eventually hated mine. Never modded. But to get that car going, you ALWAYS had to rev the engine up. People thought I was trying to race them, but in reality I was just trying to keep up with traffic


The B16 is a gutless engine.


Yeah, it was cool back in 2000, but by 2010 literally everything on the road could outrun that car.

I guess since we're al showing our dicks, I might as well show my small one as well...


96 Dodge Grand Caravan V6 (honestly perfect for high school.) Got me to school and back, was able to fit in a bunch of friends to go places.. A real lady killer hand me down from parents

99 Honda Accord V6 sedan really enjoyed this car, besides the crappy transmission, it cemented my love for Honda and was a segue into the TL. Drove it all through college because didn't want to get a new car and get door dinged and crap by other crappy college kids who didn't give a shit. Hand me down from aunt.

08 TL Type Sex bought myself after above car was rear-ended. My current love.
