The weather. One of the few good things, and maybe the only reason why I'm still here.

i lived in LA long time ago and had a great time. i always liked socal. but due to my own failure of deviating from my intended path since birth , i moved out to raise my family in racoonville.

im happy where i am at for now... but do need to put away my cars in the winter time... but i have other hobbies too.



#65 you're wondering what the tokyo autoshow's going to be like this year. (new Z, possible new silvia?)

When you carry rubber gloves in the stowaway just because you don't want the guys at the ultra high end car wash you use to touch your steering wheel

When your tires are bald after 10,000 miles.

When you pray your wheels aren't stolen (or pray they are) because most wheel locks don't fit

59)...when you wonder WHY, with all the endless car commercials, locally, butt, esp. nationally, with all the air time for foreign 'sports cars' and their "heft" and styling, there's NEVER a mention of our Z CAR !?!---is nissan so ceded by it's niche as "the most affordable sports car" that it assumes that others, besides ourselves, will know the street/track creed it carrys?!?...is our car's reputation somewhat like a big budget movie that doesn't get the advertising or pub.?...word of mouth is important...often, ours is "WOW"!!!

Cool

60 - you now have speeding tickets because Mr Officer is fixated at your car's beauty.

61 - your clutch chatters coz it's your first time driving a sports car that's manual.

62 - you lock your car then unlock it, then lock it again just to be sure.

63 - you start loving that new exhaust mod coz your now triggering car alarms in a parking lot where in the first place it should've from factory.

It's a common fact that the MT chatters and clunks regardless of driving experience.

That took way too long to come up. A variation: You fill the tank with half the dots still lit, and not because you're OCD.
