Spotted a Burgandy Lotus Elise Roadster and what appeared to be a yellow Ultima GTR heading west bound on Glendale.

MattR 2005-09-02 09:20 PM

Appearantly, there is a Yellow Panoz Esperante running around town. I'd like to see that.

Dude, we saw one at Seca a while back... it looked like a front engined Porsche w/ a shitty bumper kit on it, remember?

ShawnS 2005-09-02 11:16 PM

I think Matt was referring to this ugly bastard. However, what I saw was smaller than the Esperante.

Duckie 2005-09-03 04:02 AM

It seems the town is now overflowing with NSXi, Skylines(4 that I have seen), a handful of elises, and to my suprise a ton of GTIs.

The shinning star that I saw today while out and about paying 3.35 a gallon was a vector v12...probably the same one I saw in a longs parking lot last year...but this time it was white instead of redish. But, same utah plates+different color=96.3% chance of it being the same car.

ScottyS 2005-09-08 06:01 PM

Glad to see somebody finally got a cover on the RS, JC :-)

Ya I just didn't want to cover it before it got washed, but my dad washed it for me. :)

knucklesplitter 2005-09-14 09:24 AM

Saw SPOOLN the other day (Saturday I think) turning onto I80 from West McCarren in his Eclipse/Talon.

Lurker 2005-09-16 12:11 PM

Hey, just moved to reno. I see a ton of wrxs out there, but getting no love with the wave. I drive a black 04 wrx wagon. Hopefuly I'll see a few of you out there.

cody 2005-09-16 01:05 PM

Welcome Lurker, I'm a noob to Reno too. I had to give up on the wave too. I have a low tolerance for rejection. :)

MikeSTI 2005-09-16 03:15 PM

:lol: in hill country I have noticed that the wave can only be expected from people that have stickers on thier cars or some sort of visable mods done.

otherwise everyone in Reno owns a Subaru :banana:

This is true, I hardly get waves unless it's someone on the board I already know.

M3n2c3 2005-09-20 03:39 PM

Bruspeed, I passed by you on your way south out of Carson at about 3:45 this afternoon

I didn't see you in time to wave, though :P

SlickNick112 2005-09-20 05:39 PM

Carson City be on the lookout for my baby, Heidi's had to drive my car for the last couple of days.

M3n2c3 2005-09-20 07:59 PM

I would, but I'll be in Texas until Sunday :P

JonnydaJibba 2005-09-21 06:03 AM

Saw a black Sti going to Reno from Carson in Washoe Valley this morning. I don't think it was anyone here...

Sighting "ITSASTI"
 
I Saw "ITSASTI" , Im sorry, I don't know any of you guys.
That got to be the worst looking piece of straight pipe exhaust I have ever seen... LOL, But that car is fuc_in LOUD!!. Thats actually twice that ive seen him this week. I waved and got the wave in return (Like 2 days ago on McCarran). Tonight I saw him on McCarran and then followed him down 7th st and watched him cut offf 1 person and pass another using the turn lane, Good shit... (by the way I drive the 05 red wagon).

Yes, that exhaust is horrible looking....

And, I'm gonna bitch slap Brandon next time I see him, as will about 15 other people :mad:

Where's the line start!


of course I should clarify that with a quote from Matt when I took him for a ride in my car:

"dude, that was the closest to a complete disaster in a car I've ever experienced, but I'm cool with it"

i got a call that my grandmother had a heart attack and she was being transported to the hospital... give me a break seriously :(

renoguy20 2005-09-22 11:58 PM

That sucks, I understand.

Another sighting:

Tonight I went to flowing tide and parked next to a blue unmodified 05 wagon with litha plate frames. I've only seen 1 other 05 red wagon though, and its a prof at unr.

I was not serious of course...We all just wondered what the heck happened to you...I thought you got abducted or something. I hope everything is okay.

U53D 2005-09-23 12:12 PM

doctors are saying that its possible it could happen again.

but for now shes the same ol' person :)

thanks for the support.

ScottyS 2005-09-25 05:37 PM

Hey JC, the ferocious Washoe Zephyr removed your car cover ~Fri-Sat. It's just hanging off on the ground......I almost went over and put it back on, then I remembered a comment you made about 12ga's around your house, and figured I wouldn't want to be introduced to your folks that way........

MattR 2005-09-25 08:05 PM

I saw spooln tonight on Keystone.

sp00ln 2005-09-25 08:44 PM

Were you in your STI?

MattR 2005-09-26 05:03 AM

No, I was driving the Titan. So I figured you wouldn't see me.

JonnydaJibba 2005-09-26 06:38 AM

A Titan and an STI? You suck.

nightwalker 2005-09-26 02:47 PM

No love for EVOs. I gave a guy in a Silver STi a thumbs up and he mugged me.

Joeyy 2005-09-26 02:48 PM

Saw a white WRX go into WinCo on the south end today. It had a carbon hood and trunk, plus HKS exhaust.

"The future of the music industry" eh? How'd that work out? Prolly spent too much money on a chrome tank instead of signing talent worth listening to. :lol:

Just noticed that today. Call someone up and have them hide your car's shame! :P

JonnydaJibba 2005-09-27 06:13 AM

It's still off? For shame! Or something...

I saw a new STI as I was leaving Best Buy last night, a white one. I was checking out his car as I was walking, he didn't seem like a nice dude. I have now decided that the new ones make me want to barf all over myself because they are so ugly.

SlickNick112 2005-09-27 06:48 AM

I am socuming to the STi force, the more I see them, the more I like them. We have a dark silver one in at the dealership right now, fresh off the truck. Seeing them in person has gotten me over the initial dislike of the new look.

Hey was it an asian guy? I think I know him.

M3n2c3 2005-09-27 04:51 PM

I saw a blue '06 STI on 395 partway through Carson this afternoon. They're definitely eye-catching.
