There sure were a lot more sightings when more people drove their cars daily.

Funny you say this Matt because lately I find myself doing that wondering, "Wow, that was like 6 years ago"

That would be me. :)

I've only seen 2 08 STIs. My roommate and I even went to Lithia to see if they had any. They said, "You have to special order them. We don't have any." My roommate said, "Oh really that's weird cuz Michael Hohl has like 3." The look the salesman gave us was priceless.

cody 2008-06-20 08:48 AM

A couple months ago I was getting my car washed across the street from Lithia and walked over there to kill time. They had a red 08 STI on the showroom floor. The white one that was racing in Hawthorn looked like it was going to tip over while cornering. :P

There is one in the parking lot here at my work now. This guy has curb rashed the shit out of his wheels on the passenger side of the car.

JonnydaJibba 2008-06-20 09:22 AM

I still haven't seen a GTR. :(

Sweet, I honked and tried waving but that wagon was a scootin' ;)

Either that or the exhaust note was too powerful for my dainty (stock) horn :lol:

cody 2008-06-20 02:35 PM

lol, yah, don't think I saw ya. My car isn't all that loud though.

BOO 2008-06-21 04:57 PM

Kevin M 2008-06-27 04:21 PM

No, it was yellow. Bad shape but still cool.

JonnydaJibba 2008-06-27 06:43 PM

Nick uh with the black WRX, do your plates say NIXWRX?

wrxkidid 2008-06-27 06:47 PM

I believe they do. Did it have gangster ass tints on it too?

MPREZIV 2008-06-27 08:26 PM

SO apparently this morning my girlfriend was at the nearby Starbucks, and saw an Impreza, ANOTHER Impreza, with some form of "MPREZIV" on the license plate, driven by, according to her description, a douche-bag, who was hitting on her inside while waiting for coffee.


Urge to kill: RISING...

wrxkidid 2008-06-27 08:29 PM

trend setter much?

MPREZIV 2008-06-27 08:36 PM

"Ever since I can remember I been poppin' my colla!"


Everybody wants to be me I guess! :lol:

wrxkidid 2008-06-27 08:40 PM

Well not everybody...but i guess you can dream.

Anyone know of somewhere I can withdraw money from my checking account without a debit card at 930 on a friday night, or does Nick take checks at AutoX...Im assuming no.

MPREZIV 2008-06-27 08:41 PM

I think they take checks!


And don't lie, you know you wish you were half as cool as me. :cool:

wrxkidid 2008-06-27 08:43 PM

Yea....but i can still run over your car in my truck so there.

Ok so i can pay nick with a check :) that still doesnt solve my problem on getting enough gas in my truck to make it to stead and back.... Change Search!

JonnydaJibba 2008-07-10 03:11 PM

I saw Cory yesterday going through the Spaghetti Bowl yesterday after work. I laid on my horn (and yes it was working fine) but you probably had your music up.

I just went from 1st person to 2nd. Awesome.

"I saw Cory yesterday" is 1st person there champ. ;)

What's "2nd person" anyway? I know there's supposed to be a way to write that way, but for the life of me I can't think of an example.

I think it would be something along the lines of "Cory saw me yesterday as he was rounding the spaghetti bowl thinking - "who is this dumba$$ riding my bumper honking my (referring back to first person) horn"".

First person is "I did this to that"
Third person is "That guy did this to that"
Second person is "You did this to that"

Second person doesn't work to well in narrative, except in Choose Your Own Adventure books.

moose 2008-07-10 08:04 PM

No, "You saw me at the spaghetti bowl." is second person.

Edit: Just saw Nicks post.

MPREZIV 2008-07-11 06:41 AM

wow that got complicated didn't it?

No I didn't see you John, and yes, I had the stereo CRANKED. I'm usually a bit busy trying to not get killed when I'm driving through there anyway, what with all the idiots...

JonnydaJibba 2008-07-11 07:15 AM

How bout the other day when there was an accident in front of the GSR that had been moved 40 FEET OFF THE FREAKIN HIGHWAY and people were still slowing down and gawking?! I can understand on the shoulder, but this was between the highway and an off ramp. HATE.

Detritus 2008-07-12 11:52 PM

Just got back from the 7-11 on Virginia and I80. There was a blue 06-07 wrx, black sti, and a maroon bugeye. I think they were all cali plates. There were a couple of evos and other assorted cars too.

Dewey 2008-07-13 04:51 PM

i saw about everyone yesterday... does that count?

JonnydaJibba 2008-08-11 07:51 AM

I saw a new Challenger yesterday. That was a hoot. The driver told me to tell Bobby to fuck off.

BOO 2008-09-05 08:06 AM

A week(almost) late but saw a Nissan GT-R getting off the freeway 80w(Virginia street) on the 30th.

Dewey 2008-09-05 08:39 AM

was it black?

No, actually it was the Silver/gray GT-R. Why? did you see a black one that same day?

100_Percent_Juice 2008-09-05 10:39 AM

I have seen that one around.

Bob Danger 2008-09-05 11:21 AM

I assisted in aligning a black GT-R today. The diffusers make it a bitch, 4 hours is what an alignment on a GT-R pays.

MPREZIV 2008-09-06 02:32 PM

^^SUCKER!!!!!

Eric Gangloff?

Tahoe C5 2008-09-07 07:20 AM

I saw Eric a week ago and he said he may bring his GTR out to RFR for the trials. That would be fun to watch!

MattR 2008-09-07 09:48 AM

Yep, Eric was there.
