+1 change your name to Fatbob or something similar. Once a photo is up it's game over.

awe -

I cant believe it.....OK I forget

I have a question, what makes you think the wheels are fake?

does anyone make fake twists, whay, not like they are very desirable ...... I bet they are real.
do you do any work on your own car(s) some things you will find on the p-car are very easy to do with a few simple tools and very gratifying (unlike my continued request for pics )

Yes mam, fantastic car. You don't have to block out your plate because everybody knows your plate says Mommy's Car. Anywaaaaaay.....on your gas gauge try zeroing the trip odometer by pusing in the dial right after your next fill up. The tank holds around 16 gallons. So if like mine you might read 1/4 when it's actually around 1/2. My gauge and some others are off where you wont read full after a fill up. Don't be extra topping off to try making sure it reads full by the gauge because there it a charcoal filter to handle things that gets gas in it then needs to be replaced it it throws some shut off valve on then lights the Check Engine Light (CEL) Thats one term you will see around here. Get the engine up to temp before doing the race car tricks because its got a lot of pressure in the oil system especially when the oil is cold. You should have 5 bars of pressure till the oil warms up then it can drop to 1 at idle as long as you get at least 3 bars at arounf 5k rpm which is a way under estimate for many of our cars. I'll ramble on some place else now

Default Welcome!

Welcome, Kristy! Enjoy the car - you've earned it.

Please don't post a picture of yourself. It might start a trend, and I don't want to see pictures of all the overweight, middle-aged guys that make up this board.

I'm so glad I'm not like them - it's an old picture of me, but I've hardly gained any weight since then....

Hi Kristy,

Welcome to the Asylum. (sure you figured that out by now).

Most likely none of your factory stereo components remain.

The Bose logo is on the speaker cover, not on the speaker itself.

The factory system is something called the MOST system and... well.... it sucks.

When you upgrade anything you must upgrade/replace everything. The system is fiber optic and doesn't work with non fiber optic product.

Again, Welcome!

It's nothing personal, just that women who drive Porsches get 2 thumbs up in my book (very hot), and after seeing pics of Tim butt naked, spread eagle across the hood of his Honda, I need to cleanse my mind...
