well that was one of the longest nights of my life! i can't wait to load up my new baby and take her out on the road again.
along the lines of using the parking garage i really don't have a choice. besides, i'd feel safer with it there than sitting out front in my apartment complex while i'm not there. to me, that would just draw too much attention that i'm not around.

the parts person was already gone when i bought the car, but they are putting it on. i am very lucky in that my best friend is a service manager in their large dealer network, so i can get all my parts and service at his cost. perks of who you know...

one more thing i really like about the car (that some don't) is how the ride really isn't all that smooth. in terms of smoothness it is truly almost exactly the same as my oz with 17s on it. the reason this works out so well is because i don't have to relearn the road feedback to know how fast i'm going. 25 still feels like 25 and 65 like 65 (in terms of road feel). this should save me from getting caught up in the car and pulled over for speeding.
