Default Introduction-sort of

Although I have been somewhat active on this site for a while; I just realized that I've never posted an image of my car.

I had a buddy come in from out of town this past weekend and we took the cars out for a drive. It was nice to be able to alternate between the cars, it was funny how he was kinda begging to let him drive the 993 towards the end. Personally I like the rawness of the 3.2, but his comment was" can I drive the car with the easy clutch, cold air, real stereo".

It really was fun to switch back and forth, really makes you appreciate the difference that 10 years makes.

Sorry for the crappy pic, all I had was a cell phone.

JEC-I also have a Maxima

Allill-Good eye, that is Lake Tahoe. I shot that picture when I was driving my 3.2 back home; I bought my 3.2 just outside of Fresno and drove it back to NJ. Tahoe was gorgeous, but I love that shot since you can see the flares and the whale tail in the side view mirror.
