Um... stalker-ish? Stocker-ish is like "OEM-ish"... :lol:

I figured if/when we ever figure out a real club name, we'd make some cards up... it shouldn't cost all that much at Kinko's or something to get a few hundred business cards made up... then we can give them out to members to toss under Subaru windshield wipers.

This might even help with promoting Debbie's WRX contest!

So... uh... let's come up with a better name so I can register the domain. :lol:

ArthurS 2003-04-30 10:47 AM

I have a lady in my Business Networking group that does printing. I will ask her and see what she can do and how much it would be for a ton of business-sized cards (once we figure a name of course).

Then we can compare to kinko's. she should hook me up. I wrote her insurance :twisted: I can make things happen 8)

ArthurS 2003-05-18 01:28 AM

Wow. I saw tons of Subaru's tonight.

Saw JC at a party. Dude, your cars looks sick now that it is even lower :shock:

Then meet up with Evan and another 2.5RS and WRX at the races. We represented well there. Overall, fun night :D

I saw a couple WRX in Reno that last week and gave 'em a flash. Mine is silver w/o the DTRL & 18" 5zigens

Looks like this:

MattR 2003-06-01 10:29 PM

Art!!! Did you wave at me at McCarran and Plumb? Saturday early evening....I was staring at a girl in a beetle and my roomate says, " Some guy in a black wrx wagon just waved at you", but I was staring into space, sorry dude,,,hAHA

ArthurS 2003-06-01 10:35 PM

Yea that was me. I saw your passenger look right at me, but no wave back :( Almost thought it may not have been you.

ArthurS 2003-06-02 04:19 PM

I saw a yellow srt-4 in front of my work today. I got a good look inside also. I think those things are so damn ugly. I would never be caught driving one of those. It looks like the car was put togeather like crap.

Everyone has their own opinions, but gawd thats ugly. Just thought I would share. :D :P

dknv 2003-06-03 12:39 PM

Matt - was that you I waved at last night, leaving Albertson's on Keystone?

MattR 2003-06-03 12:41 PM

That was me, I waved back, but I don;t think you can see into my car so well...hehe, sightings are cool

dknv 2003-06-03 12:47 PM

You're right, with your tinted windows at night, I couldn't tell for sure.
But I haven't seen another white wagon with body kit - so my chances were good it was you.

ArthurS 2003-06-16 07:13 PM

Hey Matt:

I saw you going up McCarren by Lakeside today around 7:30 pm. I waved, but you seemed distracted. :(

MattR 2003-06-16 07:29 PM

Man! I'm becoming a typical WRX driver, not waving back at anyone... :lol: , you know, I think I was staring into the sun over there, maybe thats it...sorry dude.

ArthurS 2003-06-16 07:29 PM

Its cool. YOu looked like you couldn't see.

tysonK 2003-06-16 07:51 PM

I saw a F360 Spyder(Ferrari yah you know you like it) on Rock Blvd. on Sunday Morning. Teal, very mean looking. Old Guy driving and his Old lady in the passenger. I waved just to be funny. I should have made a U-turn and reved him at a light.

You had your visors down and still had your hand in front of your eyes. Must have been bright.

ArthurS 2003-06-18 12:07 PM

SRT-10
 
I just say a Silver Dodge Viper SRT-10. Gawd, that thing was so beautiful, and sounded great. Finally a dodge I can respect. :P

ArthurS 2003-06-19 10:49 AM

BOO 2003-06-19 04:24 PM

I saw Phil's beast parked at Park Lane Cinema on Friday! I 2was there to see T3. I wonder what Phil saw...

MattR 2003-07-13 10:31 PM

I saw Jason's wagon parked across from me at Park lane tonight...I was seeing Pirates of the Caribean...haaaaaarrr!

dknv 2003-07-14 03:44 PM

has anyone here seen the black 2.5rs with 'impresv' as its license plate? I've been tempted to put a note on windshield, but am waiting for those "you've been spotted' cards....

STIwish 2003-07-14 07:11 PM

I actually saw that 2.5rs on my way out of Reno weekend before last... nice car.. guy was with his girl. Saw another killer red one with CF hood, lowered with rims and exhaust (from what i could tell from my one glance) another nice car.

KenpoKev 2003-07-16 09:12 AM

Total Respect

True Story.

Last week my wife and I pulled out from the ranch in Genoa. We had to wait for a slow moving Burb which was followed by a new Silver Ferrari Maranello NV# VODOICI. Well, I decide they're going too slow and swoosh by them at 65 +/-. Moments later the Ferrari comes around too and we kinda open it up just a tad. I backed off just over triple digits and he gave me the lights flash. We continued on up 395 together and stopped side to side at the lights at Jacks Valley. He rolls down the window as does my wife and says "Hey! I like your car...I REALLY like that car!" I hollered back "Your's isn't too shabby either!" we both grinned and went on our way.

Pretty cool to get props from someone driving a car that costs as much as a house. He was obviously a true automotive enthusiast, rather than someone driving a prancing horse for the status only.

Made my day.

Yeah, we're all still waiting to see that leather install!

KenpoKev 2003-07-17 06:51 AM

I always seem to be draining the proverbial swamp whilst alligators are nipping me in the buttocks...

Just really busy with work, family and chores. Hopefully I'll be able to make one of the gatherings this summer.

Cheers,

Kevin

MattR 2003-09-10 07:58 PM

I would like to report a Khail sighting tonight. The WRS is looking damn good as always, i think it took a second for you to figure out who was in teh silver Sti. What's up Khail?

:lol: Eww.. I hope he didnt think you were trying to get his attention you bad boy.. you :wink: :lol:

sperry 2003-12-23 10:16 PM

I forgot to mention, I saw Debbie's car at the downtown movie's parking garage (I think... it was a blue wagon, and it looked like her rims)!

Also, I was at Diablo Subaru in Walnut Creek today to pick up a fuel filter. They've got a load of STi's!

2 White on Golds!! (one was sold)
1 White on Silver
1 Blue on Gold
1 Silver on Silver

Um, yeah, good to see that Subaru's only making like 1 per dealer. :roll: Oh and the sticker price on the White/Gold was only 31.9k!? STICKER!? Does that mean you can talk 'em down to $30k even now?

MattR 2003-12-23 11:08 PM

Sweet! STi's are teh cool


As far as Sightings go...I saw Art on McCarran Today, good to see hte Wag back

Yep. Saw yea too. That wing makes yea stand out. :wink:

ArthurS 2004-02-10 03:12 PM

Going to Wal-Mart today I saw a clean red civic that really stood out. It has gold rims! I swore it was the older red 2.5rs's with gold rims, s I went back to look to see it was a Civic LX with Gold rims and lowered. No fat fart can or anything. Looked pretty damn good for a honda.

AtomicLabMonkey 2004-02-10 03:29 PM

Civic... bah.

I know...I know.....but it did look pretty good. Mind you almost all the civics in Reno are total rice, but this one was actually done well.

STIwish 2004-02-10 04:33 PM

Civics can look good when done right :)

That's a good point. There are a few sweet civics around, but they get such a bad rep due to the platform being the ricer car of choice.

That said, I wouldn't want a FWD car for performance purposes. Gimme an old RWD Nissan over a new Honda any day!
