Why couldn't I have been born rich instead of handsome, intelligent, witty, and humble?
Tim, We just weren't in the "lucky sperm club" and born rich....
You would have hoped that the dealer that sold him the car might have given the poor bastard a clue.... I think he was an MD. yikes.

Oh jeeze, just keep piling it on.
Did you get his name so you NEVER accidentally go to see him?

yup, you would think that the dealer would have given him a heads-up on the tires. Not cool.

I am thinking he has a new car with the chance to mod it right away
I hope you told him about mods (not the waiting a year part though)

Drove down to the movies with my girl friend and we parked down central. When we parked it was still light outside, and when we came out of the cinema it was dark. I drove out of the parking lot, being a little bit too hulk hogan and didnt see how much of a slope I had to drive down from. I almost smashed the front to bits in the slope that the parking lot ended with.
I have had my 996 (-99) for a month, that wasnt very fun.
**** happens
