I couldn't sleep at all last night!!!
As the person who now provides a home to Mikes last car I must say that his new car will be sad. His old car tells me that he drives like a girl and loves me MUCH more.
On the real, I LOVE the car and we are off to BeaveRun this weekend for the two day One Lap of America school and have time booked at MidOhio later in May. We will also be at VIR, Gingerman and Nelson (more than once I'm sure).
I have kids stopping in front of my house to dry hump the fender and have had folks all but drive off the road going the other direction as they crane their necks trying to get a look as they drive past. I get people pulling up next to me in clapped out Neons wanting to race and jacked up F150s revving their motors like they are the goods.... what an interesting glimpse into human nature it is to give a home to one of these cars.
One problem... I am losing a good bit of sleep as well. I work nights and every day around 2pm I hear a sound outside. Its the car calling me. "Dan... DAN... Come out and drive me! It's a beautiful day!" My wife has accused me of having an affair with the car as I'm spending hours a day on the backroads of SE Ohio. Little does she know if it was her or the car I may just take the car at this point.

Oh, by the way... I'd have some pics of the car to post up but I'm too damn busy driving to have time. Hell, I hardly know what the outside of the car looks like but I sure know every stitch in the steering wheel.
Damn, not sure why you sold it, with the extra money spent on the IX you could have made your VIII twice as fast. I only say that because I had an 04 TB evo before I traded it in for an 05 MR and I regret it everyday, just the extra car payment sucks and the fact that I've replaced almost every "MR" part on the car with a different performance part. Oh well, If your happy then thats all that matters.
