Then, she mouthed something else that I didn't see. When the light changed green, she went speeding off. My wife told me that she mouthed, "Race to the next light." Ooops. :confused: The message came too late. :p I probably wouldn't have raced anyway. My wife wouldn't have appreciated the whiplash. This young lady looked like she was about 23. My wife said to me, "She must think that you're 25." I said, "Yeah, maybe."

On another note, while I was detailing the Z on Monday evening, a young lady in the passenger seat of a car waved to me while she passed by. Unfortunately, I didn't recognize her. I thought, it must be one of my son's friends. She looked like she was 19. I always kid my wife by using the expression, "Chicks dig it!" Well, chicks really do dig this car enough to let you know somehow! Young chicks! :icon14:

Your wife probably lied to you.

That would be pretty close to "Sex later tonight?"

If I start getting too much attention from young women, she'll probably make me get rid of the Z. :icon14: She's already saying that it's nice to know that I'll be okay, if she were gone. I'd have my Z and the forum. :icon17:

Good morning guys. Big down day for me today! Half way through my PT session I crashed out. Got too nauseous and light headed to continue. :(

Guess it just means I have to work harder.

I am down here in South SF. We have been working on a deal since November -- they started with 15 prospective vendors, they whittled it to 5 and now 2 and we are one of the 2. I spent all day from 7 to 5 delivering a proof of concept and tomorrow doing the same thing.

I need some Z time, sleep and sex -- not necessarily in that order.

hi mr.gale! :hello: yah, i hope to hear back from them this am. the picture on the box shows the holder's swivel is perfectly horizontal. it's like when one does momo/sparco steering wheel swap and the splines dont line up correctly. lol :rofl2:



you need to take care of yourself, mustang. all these toys you have will mean nothing if you're unhealthy (mind and body). :(

Yep I'm on the right path. New diet which I have been sticking to religiously and working out 5x a week. Getting there. Just need to drink more water. :)

I told her that my wife hasn't driven it yet. She said, "If I had the chance, I'd drive it!" I didn't know how to respond. She said all of this in front of her husband who I also like. I thought about saying, "Sure! Get in! I'll get in the passenger seat, and you can drive it!" However, my wife wouldn't appreciate my letting another woman drive the car before her, even though I've offered to have her drive it many times. She still hasn't driven it once! She's content being a passenger. Another of my neighbors (also a woman) also loves the car. Women love Z's! What does that say about us? :tup:

So I've been depressed about cars since I have a broken $25 part on the 5.0.

Been looking at:

'11-'12 GT500
E92 M3
E90 M3
335i Coupe
535/550 Sedan

I think *if* I ever sold the 5.0 it'd be to get something more practical and suited to driving every day. I'd keep the S2000 for sporting fun. But whatever I bought would still have to be connected and fun. The 3 series is nice but probably small. I do like the previous generation 5 series quite a bit. A CPO model is not too hard on the wallet.

What gets me is that when the Mustang was fairly stock it was a really nice DD. But since I essentially added some race suspension components (my lower control arms and Watts Link) it can be annoying. Its absolutely amazing through the corners and when you're on it, but at all other times it can get to you. The watts link uses spherical rod ends so every bit of noise from the rear end is transmitted to the cabin. And I recently had one of the rod-ends wear out so it sounds god awful at all times... over bumps and such the car sounds like its broken. Functions fine, but sounds terrible. I need to replace it and re-align.

I go back and forth between wanting a solid DD and a purely fun twisty road car. The problem is I have two purely fun twisty road cars right now. :icon17:

I will just fix the part and shut up. When everything is working right the 5.0 is fine to live with.

Kudos to my fiancée for not killing me yet because ALL I've been talking about this week is a GT500/M3/335/550/etc.

Wish I had enough $$ to buy a CTS-V Wagon. :yum:
