Okay, I didn't really.

I did see a midnight black Diablo SV at the gym (LA Fitness in Norco, CA) tonight though. Mmmmmm..... *jizz*

The top of the license plate frame said, "Porsches for Breakfast"

Exactly keep that digital camera around so you can take photos of hot girls too.

I always used to have a camera in my car. Unfortunately that's exactly where it was when my car got stolen. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]

Wow yeah my biggest fear has always been someone stealing my ride, I am still worried with my Ride but I have had other cars I have been driving get broken into and its a scary feeling. So do you like your new ride more then your past ride? Has to be tuff though dealing with the theft the insurance and stuff. But good thing is you have a sweet nighthawk black pearl ride my second choice to the ride I got. Yeah I am trying to save up for rims and a good digital camera right now tuff since I have found a job finally but its a temp summer job for a few weeks ( my old summer hs job ) and I have a college degree just ARGG [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] and I should be making good money. Well enough on that

Yeah I like your new ride but your old one too was TIGHT too R.I.P. to the poor civic

Damn the only time I have seen a Diablo is when I go to Wal-Mart and pay a visit to the model car section. I bet that beast sounded pretty.

Cool, when I read the title of the thread, I was like oh no, if this guy says he raced a Diablo and won, I think my head would explode.
But its all cool now.
I am in the same boat as civicpimpin01, only in Wal-Mart.

Yeah, car theft sucks bigtime. I walked out of my house and thought.... uhhh, I know I parked my car right there last night. Then I walked out onto the curb and looked up and down the street just to make sure I hadn't had a brain fart and parked it elsewhere.

Then that sinking feeling in your stomach hits and you feel crushed.


As far as my old car versus this one, It's hard to compare. I really like my 7th gen, it's a sweet ride, but damn I loved my 6th gen. It drove and handled really well.

I think I still like the body style of the 6th gen better, although the 7th gen is growing on me. I think my 6th gen looked more agressive, but then again I still need rims and springs on my new one.

I like the interior of the 7th gen MUCH better than the 6th. Although there's no f'ing way there should be dash rattles already. I'm very disappointed in that regard.

I'm also disappointed in the aftermarket tuning limitations on the 7th gens. No supercharger, no turbo. How lame. :-/

I remember one time back in college, I drove to the library for some serious studying. Walked like a mile back to my dorm only to realize I forgot my car. Try forgetting something like that.
