Hey Dollsey, and Asianpride. looks like everyone is coming out of the woodwork. Moxxie, you're almost a Platinum member. haha, maybe I'll beat you, who knows. I've slowed down a lot on the PW front.
My car is doin alright, just made a trip to Vancouver and Back, which was interesting. I'm gonna be doing the post secondary thing myself in a year or two. But I think i'm gonna try and squeeze one more new car in first. WRX or 2k2 SiR, it looks like. But the WRX is definatly the expensive route, as I'd have to get leather put in, as well as a moonroof. only time will tell. so I'm finally getting around to getting my car fixed. Should be done soon, I hope. And the Blizzaks sure do suck on dry pavement. and they seem to slow me down a bit too (car has nothing over 160, but i can still make 180 if i try).
I think i might hit up clubsi sometime, I have a membership there, i just never go. perhaps i will so i can have some fun.

Rep Power: 0 Nitehawk, I'm definitly looking for a new ride at the moment. I love my civic but it just doesn't have the *****! So, I have 3 more months left of school and I'm done forever! That way I could settle on a WRX or a nice summer car. I personally like the S2000 but I have to check out the Z-car and many others. Maybe the RX8 might be an option. I'm not going for anything less(I got the civic because it was affordable and wanted the wrx since I heard it was coming to N.A.) So, I'm going to test drive a lot of cars and finally choose then.

Rep Power: 0 As am I. A lot of testdriving in store. haha, it's gonna be fun going to all the dealerships and convince them to let an 18 year old drive all the nice cars. Maybe I can bring a bank statement or something to persuade them. lol.

Rep Power: 0 Find a pic of the spoiler, man....not sure which one you're talking about.
I think a lot of spoilers dont really look that good on the 2k1's....our cars are so angular whereas most other cars are really rounded so it kind of makes it awkward to put a universal type spoiler on the back....if you know what i mean. The OEM one looks pretty good....though its common as hell. The Kaminari looks nice...it would probably go alright with your bodykit too, but its pretty big. Aside from that i haven't seen a lot of spoilers that i like....aside from the aluminum ones. Also, 2k1 civics, IMO are one of the few cars that look tolerably OK with an aluminum piece....most cars just look silly with that **** tacked on the back.
You didnt like the 3 piece spoiler that came with the Wings West kit huh?

Always thinking we're drug dealers. For me, I just got lucky and inherited a chunk of money. Totally unfair, but I'm really not complainin.

Rep Power: 0 Nah, I'm not a dealer either. If I were, I wouldn't be driving a civic. I'd be driving an Acura! Get a nice TL or something!
Nitehawk - I think you just have to want the car, ie put a $500 refundable deposit on the car then you can drive it. I was told that at Subaru if I wanted to take out a WRX for a spin.
Well, I can't wait already, I am really going to get the car of my dreams now!

Rep Power: 0 Yeah, i know, i'm hella lucky....if it wasn't for them i'd be riding the bus. Like Nitehawk said, its not really fair, but hey, i'm not gonna turn it down lol....
Hrmm...i dunno...this summer i'm applying for a job as a porter at the Grey Nuns hospital. Its shift work and they probably want you to work a lot of hours, but it pays like $12 an hour....

Rep Power: 0 hahaha...you'd have to go talk to the staffing at the Grey Nuns. I'm not sure really, my sister is the one getting me the job...(she's a nurse)....
Only downside is that you'll have to be transporting "fecal specimens" to the lab and stuff......
