Got an interesting note today from Honda. For some reason, the manager is offering to reduce my payments on a newer Honda, & offer more for the Si w/ special discounts.

A good deal maybe, but fishy considering I have my Si on a lease.

The best part about CZ is that if it does rain, it usually does not rain all day/night....

So, how was the trip and what did u do and where did u end up going?

Hint: 24 Hour Fitness has a 2 Year unlimited all club membership available at Costco for $300 bucks...

That is a great deal... I only recommend you avoid the locker rooms there...

Haven't gone yet. I leave this Thursday. Don't worry, I will be taking plenty of pics and will post them up when I get back. Yea it is saying isolated to scattered t-storms. Good to know that t might not last the whole time.

I have been there where it threatened to rain all day, and never rained... I have been there where they predicted rain and it did, but never lasted all day... and I have been there where it rained non stop... you're going to have fun no matter what...

one of my faves was when I went to jamaica a few yrs ago and it rained every morning between 430 am and 8 am... man i slept good through those storms... nothing like rain pounding on a thatched roof hut....

Anyways, turns out he can't do anything, unsurprisingly once he learned I still had 9 months of payment. Not unless of course, I wanted some higher than usual payments on my next car to cover the payoff.

Transplant

Hey guys,

I'm a recent transplant to Texas, McKinney specifically, and NEED recommendations for a place to buy cheap tires and a suspension guru until I get my front end issue taken care of.

HELP!!!

2001 Cl-s, taffeta white on 19's and B&G Suspension. The one with California plates...

Thanks!
Matt

Any DFW Meets going on?

Fellows,

I'm new to this forum and wanted to know if there are any DFW meets going on during the week or weekends? I've been to the rice killer meets with my other cars but want to go to a meet where there are more Acura's.....wishful thinking!

If you guys know of any that are going on or upcoming please let me know.

Thanks!

We try to hold as many Sunday meets as possible every so often at Starbucks on Inwood Dr., though we are doing it at the one off Legacy in Plano this upcoming Sunday.

But, you have to bring your M3 to one of the meets eventually.

I can still do it most likely, however, I did figure you'd be spending more time with your daughter.

I have an idea, since Rick is off Sundays, why don't we hold a Sunday 4th of July gtg at the house? I think everyone should be able to make it, and it would most likely be fun. Any takers?
