What are these "windows" you talk about Happy? I don't think verts have them. Oh wait those are what posers in verts use when the top is down, right? Man I hate that LOL You see that all the time with BMR's why is that?

Yeah, I don't understand that either...mebbe they don't want to muss their hair!

Fire 03-05-2012 10:02 PM

happytheman 03-05-2012 10:08 PM

What comes to mind is that part on Spanglish with Tea Leoni :yum: when she gets into that convertible with the realtor and he adjusts her seat and window so her hair "flows perfectly"!

I find myself turning the tunes off and rolling the windows down nevery day now! :tup:

Ken-San - Well, at least I now know you're middle aged, live somewhere in the middle, like coffe ice cream & burritos, and used to live in California with a modded Civic!

yah, i too drive around with the window down to enjoy my exhaust note so i dont pay much attention to wat's playing on the HU until i come to a stop. lol :icon17: another reason why i just swapped out the HU and left the speakers stock. it sounds decent.

yah, that car i had in LA was a prelude. i had a civic before the prelude. :D the prelude was heavily modded and even had naws (no joke). :icon17: was one crazy canyon carving machine and pretty quick straightline on the juice. :tup:

yah, the PC and clay gets pretty addictive. go easy on the clay as some clays are too coarse for the Z's paint. meguiar's 'soft' clay was too coarse. i only use griot's mud (very soft clay). :D hahaha.

I was reading it and I was all confused about 'What the heck happened to my tranny.... it's straight and not bent..... :confused:'

It's Mr.Alchemy has 5th gear grinding and has to has his tranny straighten out before he brings the Z to the dealer.... LOL

Good Morning all! :hello:

The ice is slowly melting with the wife as far as purchasing her a new car so that I can take her MDX and keep the Z out of the Demilitarized Zone that is the street system in Houston.

She has surprised me in actually being interested in a Juke. Butt ugly, but funky and it does grow on you. We will probably go drive one this weekend along with a trip to the Honda dealer to look at a Fit, CR-Z and a CR-V.

As I reported, and mr. onzedge disputed, with the installation of my EVO-R carbon fiber B pillar covers, I'm currently on modding hold. I'm looking at about $300 - $500 in repairs left from my pot hole encounter and TMPS swap.

I have to say that I have NEVER been more satisfied with a car. I'm also glad I didn't buy a Porsche because the whole Z community, be it the Forum, or the local Club, seem to be much more down to earth and non-pretentious.

That is nowhere more evident than at our local Coffee and Cars. Even people that come by to take pictures of the cars mention how laid back the group is. I made the right choice. :tup:

kenchan 03-06-2012 06:58 AM

Hello, mr.gurney! :tup: you have a mighty fine looking car. :D

Alchemy 03-06-2012 08:13 AM

Im gonna be calling my homeowners insurance provider today to see what insurance on the Z would be like if bundled w my homeowners. I plan on driving her tomorrow :tup: :excited:

Gauge 03-06-2012 08:15 AM

It's sunny and the roads are dry, awwwweee yeaaahhhh! :driving:

Fire 03-06-2012 08:17 AM

Should be able to get a better deal with them together. They might also offer a seasonal use vehicle policy. I know that I saved on past cars due to having to store them.:hello:

Fire 03-06-2012 08:19 AM

I will def. be looking to get that for the ZL1 Chevy is making sure that owners know that the tires are only to be used with temps above 40 degrees.

Depending on the price of the policies it could be a nice $100+ savings. Do you mind me asking what companies you're currently with?

Where you at in WNY, Fire? I used to work at Paddock, if you're buying the ZL1 from there...

Mr.gurneyeagle, that's the reason making Z is a complete package, good car, good driver, good community, good forum and good members. Everything is just top notch!! :tup: :tup:

Mr. gurneyeagle, that sucks to hear about the repairs :( Hope your car gets better soon. As for the Juke vs. Fit, CR-Z, and CR-V, I actually think the CR-Z would be fun... especially after a K-series swap :)

That's actually a pic of me. Right meow. (See drives :))

I drove down to NOVA/DC/MD last night (harrowing drive in absolute darkness - nothing is scarier that emerging from nothingness and going straight into more nothingness), and I'll be here for the next couple of days, so I won't be able to make this week's meet :( Also, VA people are so much nicer than NYC people, it infuriates me to no end.

Fire 03-06-2012 11:34 AM

Hmmm waaaasabi is trying to misdirect us. Don't fall for it. He did not use the code word charboilchedderburger. He's obviously an impostor. :stirthepot:

I was looking forward to catching up at the meet. But it's not big deal, as long as neither of us sell our cars anytime soon we'll be at a meet eventually! haha

And yea, NYC people are a rare breed lol
