What?! Just how much does a MCPL make? I got out of the service too soon man! Wish I could afford to buy my wife two sports cars...

lol... it started with the Lincoln MKx. I bought that for her in 2008. She didn't want to park it at the train station, so I drove it! Then I got back from Afghanistan in 09 and bought her the Z... but that was no good for winter so she took the Lincoln back and I drove the beater car (96 Contour). Finally the Contour has died an ignoble death so I bought the Veloster last week for the wife as an all year sporty fun car to replace the "stolen" 370Z that I now drive occasionally. The rest of the time I drive the Lincoln again. One of these days I might buy myself a car!....

and buy the way, it's the spec pay,not the rank that counts.... Still pays more than a level four Sgt!

Gentex Homelink auto dimming mirror goes in Saturday! Last "official" mod I think... the wife will kill me if I start looking at aftermarket BOV's etc!

Pardon the stolen google image (but I liked the 350 in the background!)

Mirror's in, tint's done.... just waiting on Hyundai to ship the turbo version mudflaps and I think that's it for now!

Beautiful looking car, love that paint!

wheee! · 12-28-2012, 10:18 AM

Mudflaps came in. Not really sure if they qualify as mudflaps seeing as the are about the size of a slice of toast!

car is driving great in the winter too! Not too bad for a FWD turbo with all seasons!

Looks like KIA is going to make a Cain to the Veloster (Abel) with the Kia Proceed. Looks like KIA is going hard with modern aggressive style, turbo engine and RECARO seats.

On another note... Kia Forte refresh looks better than the current Honda Civic. It may not handle as well... YET? But it's FWD and they are moving faster at better fwd cars than rwd. i like.
