I normally get up around 6-8. Just depends on how late I stay out the night before.

Cool, so she got that one. That is good to hear. Not sure why they do that down here. I guess we just have to be different than everyone else!

 

If the thought is to have an evening meet next Tues 10/18. Maybe a "neutral" place like HEB or Irving so FW and Dallas can both have a mid range drive.

Are any of the Addison/Plano folks still interested in Wed lunch? Maybe it is a smaller group of those of us in the proximate area to Addison/Plano.

As the realtive newbie here, if one of the vets to this group has a better feel for what works, please throw an idea out, so we can rally everyone around.

Thanks,

Looking forward to meeting many of you.

Ya know, I never had a ton of brake dust -- and if I did it was just very early. I don't notice much (if any) more than the stockers dusted off.

Hope it gets better!

 

Happy Friday everyone!! I'm taking that nice drive down I-45 tomorrow, can't wait to open it up!!

 

I can still probably do lunch. As far as in the evening, it will really just depend on what time and if I have my car or not. I carpool with my cousin to work, so if I have my car on the day we all meet and he doesn't mind going then it won't be an issue. If he doesn't want to go, then I will have to take him home first.

 

OK,
Julio's for lunch. How about anyone else? I can make the reservation. Just chime in if you want to join next Wed 11am at Julio's on Tollway.

 

wrong Julio's, they're meeting in Plano

 

Yeah, I know where it's at, I've been there, still too far!!

 

That place rocks, haven't been there in a while... The Snookies grill behind Uncle Julios is really good too, if we get a normal GTG going, it is in the same parking lot...

 

Hey, did anyone else get their Taste of Lexus confirmation? Anyone else going 10/22 at 1 pm??

 

Good question....dont know...need to check it out cuz I dont recall getting one

 

I'm going 10/23, Sun. morning

 

yup i think mine at noon.. and then a legend meet right afterwards at 2pm

 

VPN rocks.. work from home...

 

I wish I could do that. Not that working in my office is bad though

 

My job is boring, but at least I get to surf AZ all day!!!

 

Trey, did you get a Z?

 

10:45 @ Taste of Lexus for my gf, and 2 friends for me ... Saturday the 22nd

 

Lol, thanks man.

 

No, but I am seriously looking into getting one!! I wish I could afford new

 

I'm ready for a little rear wheel drive and the G35C are more than I can spend

 

Yeah, the Z is a pretty sweet ride. When are you looking to buy one? This is one of the many cars I'm looking at too...I just can't do wrong wheel drive anymore.

 

New is overrated. Only get new if it is a special, limited edition car, or you are leasing it.

Always buy used and let someone else take the biggest depreciation hit! This is how I am able to switch out of cars so easily.

 

Ha, WWD. I love it.


But man, once you Right wheel drive, you never go back!!

 

I don't trust previous owners...depends on the brand of the car but with sportscars and stuff, its obvious that people will rag them out.

 

Chopper you seriously need to go to the cleaners again. I need my coat back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I've been searching autotrader.com fo the past week. I'm probably going to wait until my divorce is final!!!

 

I feel the exact same way!!

 

Yeah, but that is why I only buy certified pre-owned or something that still has the original warranty. I know that I am going to rag on a car, so what is the difference if someone else did it before me? Again, as long as there is a warranty, I am not really concerned.

Granted, I will only buy a used car if it is damn near perfect, that way, I know that the previous owner took care of it.

 

and damn does G-$ rag on his cars lolz...

 

I disagree. I loved the fact that my car had 11 miles on it when I got it. I cant handle getting used. You have no idea how hard that car has been drivin. Its a gamble IMO. Hmmmm......new car smell............

 

i am agreeing with G-Money... i haven't bought a new car yet... all certified... i mean cars are meant to be driven, even if they are being driven hard... as long as it is certified and the warranty is still good.. just get rid of it when the warranty is up or thouroughly inspect the vehicle before you buy it... financially u just take such a huge hit with a new car...

and dude new car smell is not necessarily good for you... its actually bad for you...

 

Big E I have to agree with G-money on this one. But I dont have room to talk when I get my GTO

 

whatever

If Im going to spend over 30K on a car I want it to be new, thats all I can say..

 

no no, wait a year and then buy one that someone drove the piss out of.

Im not saying that a used car isnt worth gettting. There are alot of good deals out there. Im just saying that when you're going to be spending some serious coin IMO I feel more comfortable getting new. I never had any intention in getting a used TL. Shit I know I lost about 6K as soon as I drove it off the lot. I put 12K down so Im somewhat okay with the hit.

 

and that would be why I think the way I do.....

 

ahhh yes but a used car isn't gonna cost u 30k... lolz... naw man i know what you are saying...

 

ya know now that I think about it, my CL was used

but it was my moms. so I know she didnt rag it that hard.....I hope lol!!

 

Its just better broken in
