Added a new toy to the box... - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Been awhile since I posted, been kind of busy. Well to start off, my wife totaled her 300Z back in our last big snow storm, bummer of the deal is that I had just cancelled my insurance on it cause someone was about to buy it...doh! So like Eazy-E said..."throw it in the gutta and go buy anotha." (not bad for a white kid eh?). Then 2 weeks later a construction company dropped a prefab wall onto my STi...ouch.( The wing made for a nice lumber rack, sort of) So the STi's been in the shop for the last month, damage wasn't that bad but all the autobody shops have been packed after the snow storms so it's taken awhile to get fixed, should be done this week hopefully. And supposedly my new Evo MR will be here this week; it's getting shipped up from So Cal. Graphite Grey w/ Euro spec headlights, taillights and badging. So now we'll have two cars that we both don't mind driving whereas before the wife and I ro-sham-boe'd for the STi all the time. So whenver I get two vehicles again I'll make one of the Thur. meets. You guys meeting at the new Bully's on Robb Dr now?
Hopefully I'll see ya there soon....

Later,

Dustin

wow.

That was a lot to take in in that post.

At first I cried then I cried again, then I was happy again. Crazy shit happening around the household for you!

congrats on the MR I love it. Can't wait to see it.

When you get your Evo can you give me a run down side by side compare? I might be in the market of new car soon. Evo or STI

They never drove MRs though.

BTW, is it the apoclypse or something. What are you doing up so early?

Job interview/apocalypse. Double booked today.

Yeah, after I get some drive time behind the wheel of the MR I'll post my impressions of the two cars. I'm so antsy right now in anticipation of my STi being repaired and the MR being delivered I think I need some Adavan to calm down...hehe. I'm so sick of driving this gutless, non-handling, POSUV...it's driving me mad.

zpeed · 2005-03-03, 04:26 PM

That exacly what I've been driving POSUV.
