Why would pick you a picture like that for your coming out party?


edit: The new one is a little lower on the dbag totem poll I guess.

I love Pumas, and I love Ferraris. What can I say

Edit: I have this one too.



And the watch is also Ferrari/Puma

Not a kill story but I thought I'd add since it's a "winter" thread. Snowed again this morning while I was coming home from work, nice dusting of an inch or two. I come to a 4 way stop. Some lady in an Acura SUV decides to make it her turn instead of mine and whips into the intersection. She caught a nice piece of slick snow or ice and said hello to the ditch. Not a mile down the road, a trailblazer took a bend pretty quick and ended up facing me. I never follow close, so I didn't hit her or anything....although by the way her husband was screaming at her, he might later. No ABS in the Focus makes for an interesting trip in the snow, but the "woman driver mod" seems to be a recipe for disaster when mixed with snow. As my dad always says, "Women drivers, no survivors."

His is a stock n/a cobalt, not an SS. I can do some NLS in the Focus . I think I'm going to avoid it, and just save the money for whatever I buy after this car. Wish I had enough for a "fast" car + SS/TC.

I never understood the whole moding the DD thing. I mean, I guess it's cool to have a beater thats decently quick, but then you'd want to beat on it more with mods, and then it becomes less reliable since it'll be a lot more succeptible to breaking with you always hammering on it. I always liked having a stock DD that was a good reliable car and then my beast at home when the **** talking started to fly. I do know freinds that have modded DD's along with thier fast car......just not my cup of tea I guess.

I modded my last DD and had to get another DD to replace it...now I'm modding my current DD. Now I have 3 modded cars not to mention modding my wife's DD. I think I have a problem.
