heh we had an 07 rdx... was probably gonna be mine eventualy buuuttt... some stupid girl ran a red light right outside of UH and hit a passing car which spun and smacked into our rdx :\
motor still seemed good but they claimed it as a wrecker since repairs were gonna cost around 20k anyways and just gave us a lil more than 23k for it... now we're down to 2 honda/acura's haha TL Type S and an ra1 Odyssey

You have like 10mins i think, after you post to edit your post or else it locks you out. You post count also doesn't increase in the regional section.

T_T is like a crying face haha
and ehh iunno, we were gonna sell it after we paid off bro's TL but that went down the drain but i guess we wouldve gotten the same amount of money if not a little more. and moms still not sure what she wants to get yet... dad has a friend that works at sterling mccall acura so we get discounts lol most likely gonna end up getting a mdx or something along that range.

I've been playing around with BadA$$vtec's D3000 for about a year now.
decided it was time to purchase my own.

I bought it with the kit lens, 18-105mm.

The girlfriend has a 7D I borrow often, still trying to learn how to use but for the randoms sake I bought a GoPro which mounts nicely to the car. Took it for a test drive today just to get a few random shots, nothing in particular.









would have looked nicer with wide angel option and not tilted so much down towards the car





Video doesn't look that bad either.
http://vimeo.com/23302928

I want to try my hand at making a random TL amateur video just to kill time. If anything ever gets planned to meet up.

Me and a buddy when we do flash shots thats what we do. U gotta get the settings just rite for the pics to come out good but its decent. Just run around the car and do like 5 flashes. I'll post some pics we did when I get on my computer later on.

I'm mad jelly of yalls cameras. I was going to get a t2i but I quit my job so that got put on hold.
