We don't have many curvy roads in this area. We do have a great race track for our autocross. It is the most legal fun you can have for 15 bucks.

Yup I don't live up there and I know you gotta haul azz on I44....

Heck I may have found 90 on it down through the middle of town and out by Remington park.

On the way to autocross

Stijn, If you didn't have your head up your arse you would know what I am talking about... There is a reason to watch chick flicks....

you'll just end up "being friends" with that kind of nonsensical m.o.

So funny story while I'm sitting here-

My phone has been off on the charger for a few days, haven't needed it. I pick it up and turn it on just now and I have two text messages from a number I do not know. The first one is a picture. I open it up and it's a girl taking a photo of herself in a mirror in a changing room wearing a skimpy dress. It's a small pic and my phone sucks, so it's hard to tell, but I'd say she's anywheres from 15 to 28, about 5'3" and stacked. Under the pic it says "How does this look?"

So I'm pretty amused at this. I check the next message and it reads "Sorry I didn't mean to send that to this number."

Ha.

So what do I do? Text back: "That's OK, whoever this is. The dress looks wonderful."
...

2 minutes later:

"Thanks. My name is Bailey btw."

I feel like this is a trap.

I'm currently trying to get it off my phone onto my computer It says it's 800x600 but the phone screen it tiny..

I still have an original Motorola Razor phone. May need to upgrade soon.

Schumi · 11-13-2009, 07:45 AM

oooo k..

got the picture onto my computer so I could see it nice and clear.

we're going to go with the lower end of that age range I guessed. The low, low end.

Admiral Ackbar is correct.

So the PPI on my green 930 was a bust. very disappointed to find out the car had been repainted (diddn't know this) a different colour than original (didn't know this either) and worst of all the quality of the paint was not good.

My heart was set, I loved the way the car looked but I expected a certain level of quality to the car and it's just not there. getting it there would cost a lot of money.

I think I'm going to look at some other cars again.

Bummer... Was it the first you were looking at?

livi · 11-14-2009, 02:45 AM

Morning, guys.

Sorry to hear about the car, Mr Stjordal. Whats your first name BTW?

Are you dead set on a turbo or also considering a n/a car?

Bummer, but hey, if it does not meet your requirements, then you shouldn't spend your cash on it.
Was it just the paintjob that was not good or were there technical issues too???

the_webbster · the_webbster's Garage

I'm Jeff - very norwegian name!

there were a bunch of small technical issues, but nothing major. the biggest thing is that the car is not it's original colour. i do like the colour it is now and spoke to a friend who is a painter who says it can be repaired, but the car is definitely not worth what the seller is asking for it - at least not to me!

One thing is sure - There are lots of cars around so I will surely find one!

I think it's going to be a 930 Livi. I see the attraction of a nice, clean SC but I have been told that the 930's are particularly attractive in Norway. i was particularly set on a euro version with sunroof delete, so The General fit the bill.

Rick V · 11-14-2009, 04:22 AM

If it makes you feel any better it took me 2 years to find the car I wanted. I saw a lot of nice cars, but they just weren't a good fit.
Once I got Lanna, I was happy I waited, and I missed the hunt. It was fun looking for a car, with cash in my pocket.

Yeah, it never gets old...

You need the new version, starring a pair of 911 GT3:
