I don't have enough space for a S2k right now. Once WagonJr needs a daily driver I'll be able to justify it... But for now, I live vicariously through you knuckleheads.

Smart man.
Joe in a thread where there's no Majofo = YOU
Joe in a thread where there's Majofo = maybe YOU but probably Majofo and FuckJoe or CuJoe would be you.
lol, if I do sell it'll be in the spring...the values go way down in the fall/winter though I guess neither of those things are real where you live. If you are seriously interested, we can talk but I'm not 100% on selling yet.
lol. Just changed the oil out yesterday (see pic) in preparation for storage. Probably one or two more drives and it'll be done for the year. High temps this weekend are in the 30's so it's about that time to overfill the tires and plug the battery tender in.
Nearly being the key word lol. Except for the new head unit and the bastardized OEM replica spoiler, it's bone stock with all the VIN tags present and visible.

Though I appreciate the fact that you think I'd be nuts enough to go powder coat my grill (), that's actually a standard color (they call it copper) they sell along with green and black.
The high today is 60F so the S is out for likely it's last or second to last day of driving for the year. The weather on Saturday is (no joke) a high of 34F with a chance of snow and it won't get better until April.
This years stats are ~1500mi driven, one oil change. I love the maintenance on this thing.

lol, I have the luxury of using it as simply my toy car. It only comes out to play on the most perfect of days when it's sunny, warm, and no chance of rain. Also, we got a puppy this year so it's rather difficult to put a dog plus wife in the S to go anywhere especially now that he's big.
Sure is! Unfortunately in order to get a lift in there I'd have to reconfigure the garage doors and openers along with reinforcing the floor. With the fact that this place is not going to be our home forever, I'm not sure I want to make that kind of investment.

Welp, it's done. Tank is full, oil is changed, tires are filled, battery tender connected, roof is unhooked, windows cracked, tailpipe/intake plugged with steel wool, insurance taken off, and car is now parked on comfy carpet pads until ~April-ish.

Took a vacation day yesterday to work on the cars. Spent most of the time on the S. Got the engine bay cleaned and did a deep clean on the body. She's ready to claybar now. I'll probably put her up on jack stands during the winter and work on the tire well areas as I get time too. Got a basic wash in on the TL and some spray wax. Man does the body need some TLC as still haven't had a chance to remove the dip overspray off and I didn't clean/wax her since I peeled it in June so a lot of surface contaminants too. The TL will have to wait until spring though as she's my winter beater. If I ever fully dip any one of my cars again my prep time will be significantly increases as the amount of taping off to prevent overspray will be greatly increased.
