Car Gods Sent Me a Sign

Mandingo · 02-02-2012, 11:48 AM

Thats what I said when my tax return ended up nearly matching the cost of an exhaust and HFC package. A friend then emailed me something similar to the following so I'm passing along the Good Word:

Z Carinthians 3:7 - 9 "And He said unto me, thou shalt purchase Avant Garde M310s with tires and thine eyes shall behold the glory of the Lord. And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths, and carp and anchovies, and orangutans and breakfast cereals, and fruit-bats."

Haha. I have like the exact amount needed for a Stage 2 TT kit between the student loan and tax return. Now I don't want to spend it lmao. So far I've bought a Viper 5901 alarm system. My room mate loves his on his 370Z so I picked one up for $200. Now I'm looking at the Evo-R fog light but I can't justify $100+ on a light bulb.

Also, considering getting a used mint condition R6/R1/GSXR600-1000 and playing with the left over money and maybe get some TE37's for the car.

Can the car gods send you a sign to get a better set of wheels than Avant Garde's?

SSR or Volk maybe?

Yah, I remember back in the day I was able to buy a full three piece set of lightweight BBS-type wheels for my BMW for $400 per wheel, and I thought it was outlandish! I'd be so lucky to get away with that today!

It is exact down to the dollar, which blew my mind. Time to get in contact with Getyourwheels.

Just wanted to share.

Jeez. I am impressed! I filed within a week or getting my W-2 and have not heard hide nor hair.

You E-file?

What was the time from file to EFT?

Yes i E-filed on 28-Jan and the funds are being deposited 4-Feb so one week wait time.

You can track and see when your money will be deposted by going to:

https://sa1.www4.irs.gov/irfof/lang/...fgetstatus.jsp

You have to enter social, status, and the exact amount your supposed to get.

I'm pretty stoaked about getting my return back. I spent a pile of money on my rental units and can claim a HUGE loss. ... After I think about it... I could purchased two top notch turbo systems for my car with the money spent
