Si and the Jets

jsprat · 04-29-2007, 10:14 AM

Hello 8th gen members.

I have been lurking 6 months while car shopping. The internet forums were an amazing source of help on the Si and its competition. Thanks to all of you for the facts, opinions and entertainment.

Bought my FBP Si last week.

The wheels will eventually be the 7 spoke.

Dealer made a boo boo, then burned down 3 days after I purchased. So, I'll wait a little and enjoy the 5 spoke alloys. Hope I do not learn to like them too much...

- Dealer gave me the originals back - with 30 miles of use. Soon to be on e Bay....

Will post a couple other photos on the FBP specific site. Full slide show at http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=...&x=0&y=-ixf5r6

The tale of buying by email quotes soon to be posted in the Buying Experience site.

Not Air Force - took the photos at Wings of Eagles air museum near the Chemung County airport. I live in Horseheads and was on the way to the airport. The late afternoon spring sunlight was gorgeous and the jet (F15 Eagle I believe) felt like a nice backdrop for my intro photos.

I have yet to see another Si in the area - see many in Binghamton (when you visit...) ?
