Yes, that's usually the case. I was approaching an intersection, and a woman was waiting to enter while I had the right of way. At the last minute while I was approaching her, she pulls out in front of me to make a left turn! I had to hit my brake to slow down before hitting her in the side. :shakes head:

Then, there's the other extreme. Woman sits at an intersection while waiting for a safe opportunity to proceed. Plenty of opportunities appear, but she's too timid to proceed between a reasonably safe gap between any two cars. Consequently, she just sits there, waiting until the point where there're no cars in sight before proceeding. :shakes head: This is not an old woman by the way. I always check. I give our older sisters and brothers a break. Then again, better safe than sorry. :tup:

To celebrate the end of the extreme detailing, I cracked a cold one. Mr.kenchan should approve of this... I took a crappy iPhone pic just for him :tup:

No, just a regular shot, sent to my ipad via Photostream, then sharpened using and uploaded to Flickr using iPhoto for iOS. easy peasy :tup:

I decided to take a quick shot with my iPhone because it will take me a little while to go through all the pictures I took with my 7D.

or:gtfo2:

Though you know you are gonna wanna mod it so why not save $$ with a sport or base:stirthepot:

Dont mean to anger Nismo owners but Im glad I didnt get one with all the work Ive done, woulda been a waste. Thing is I ordered my car before the Nismo was available. If it was at the time thats what I would have bought, and prob regreted. If you dont plan on modding, since its your fiancees, Id say the Nismo is a good choice then:tup:

I actually kinda wish that I bought a base OR a 350 instead of my car. Just cause I woulda gotten more outta it. Im about $55k-ish into my car, cash. If I woulda bought a slightly used 350 like I originally planned I woulda had 30-35k for mods:stirthepot: Wouldnt have even needed anywhere near that to turn it into a monster. Shoulda, woulda, coulda right:ugh2: Im real happy with my car though and you will have to pry my keys from my cold dead hand. I dont think I could ever sell it. She is here to stay. Next project is gonna be a WRX for the winter, THOUGH I really wanna do a 240 or 260 project. Like real bad. Too bad I need a snow capable car. Still might let want defeat reason with my next car purchase:icon17: After ZDAYZ I want that 240/60 more than ever.

m4a1mustang 05-24-2012 03:05 PM

The only one she wants is a NISMO. She likes how they look. Probably wouldn't mod it... BTDT.

I do like the way it looks, though. And it ends up being cheaper to buy the NISMO than to buy a base and then buy NISMO body parts. Plus she said she doesn't want to be a poser if she gets one. :icon17:

I have a feeling when it comes down to it we'll spring for the TTS but we'll see.

What are you implying? That I don't know what I'm asking about? Pretty sure asking for a discount, but getting quoted for the same items (even though I asked for different combinations) puts her in the wrong. Oh well, no Z1 for me anytime soon.

i guess the real funny is back in college my friend that's a girl (from japan) was telling her American room mate that she ordered a banana icecream (or smoothy or something) and got a vanilla icecream..and her room mate says "so wats wrong?" :icon17:

hint: her pronunciation
