And it's White, base, sport package. Actually didn't wanna buy it just yet, but my '94 300zx gave me a check engine light yesterday and the engine was rocking pretty hard in the mounts. At 161,000 miles I'm using it as an excuse to get a new one early. I'm excited!

Its a bit of a ways up but if you are ever headed to Due West or Laurens, SC 252 is an awesome stretch of road that links them. Great curves, a little hill here and there, ran it a few times and have yet to see any sign of legal confrontation (if you catch my drift...but don't hold me to it ) but I am usually on it around dusk hours. Problem is, the good bit is only about 15 miles long and is 3 hours away from Charleston. Sorry, I know this doesn't really help haha, but if you are ever in that area, that's the best part of my ride to Due West, and it is pretty profound.

Isn't that where a subbie and a lancet raced and crash into one another?

no idea, but it would seem like a place to do it... also, what was the deal with the cops around charleston, goose creek and summerville today? I was there around 2 and they were everywhere. undercover, unmarked cars, always at least 2 officers per car and all wearing bullet-proof vests... is presidents' day know for its erratically-driving, gun toting high-schoolers? and they were all up and down 26, 95 and even the back roads between summerton and paxville... statewide "crackdown?" I didn't see anymore people on the road than on a usual sunday. I actually realized that I love hoopties on these days, they save me the trouble of having to figure out if they are an undercover cop of not. just curious...

They have been really bad in this area for the last few weeks. I went through a license check about a week ago. It was the middle of the day on a back road. WTF I have the most respect for law enforcement but this police officer was the biggest d1ck. He harassed me about my radar detector and nitrogen in my tires. It was just bs. I wasn't doing anything wrong.
