So, i've never understood how that all works out. Someone gets in an accident, gets there car fixed (thx to insurance co.), AND manages to pull off extra aftermarket parts. How do you pull that one?

Get the value of OEM parts. Use money on aftermarket stuff that usually cost cheaper.

Carlos, when is your car is due? How's your rental? Ya, your fellow lancer guys always complaining about their cars being slow. They should be wearing your shoes drivinag the rental.

Well, Frank had his Accent, and I have driven one too as a rental.

Yeah, sometime perhaps when people are meeting up and I have nothing to do like schoolwork and work period, I'll be more than happy to take you for a ride in it. Just have to excuse my **** driving skills. (5 spd an me shifting are getting better but haven't gotten there totally yet).

Also, sorry to hear about the wreck carlos. Hopefully everything will work out for the best.

Chris, I'm experienced enough to hear and feel the pull of the motor. I can take the driver factor out of the equation.

It's a 6 banger, and it doesn't go anywhere. The car can't be that heavy. It has to be a ill mainatined rental. Gotta be an auto too???

What's up people? Bought a new Evo a couple of months ago and loving it. Was wanting to know if anyone meets around here in Tampa. I live in the New Tampa area.

If you are going to gandy, be prepared to eat tickets. That spot is bait for cops. Otherwise, it's not worth it.
