Nope, i sold the s2000 because i was tired of only having room for one person. At that time, i didn't have a daily driver, otherwise i probably wouldn't have sold it lol

what a shame, such a hot sports car! but your other cars are nice..

the SI is looking good..don't you miss RWD though?

s2k or supra in your future perhaps?

[firmhonda]

props on the cars bro! I wish I had that kind of cash..

[jpik2003]

That FA5 is looking good, even without too much mods. I'd rock the s2k, but Chicago weather FTL.

[junkimchi]

such non-chronological order lol. All beautiful cars though, especially the accord. Man I would want an accord like that...

YEs very non=chronological. I never quite knew what i wanted, and when i got the FG coupe, i thought i'd keep it for awhile, but then someone traded in the s2k, and for the same payment i was making, i'd decided i'd rather drive an s2k, so that's why i bought it. After 9 mos of use, i decided i wanted more space, since i didnt have a DD.

[irichard]

so how old are you now?

[berlinas2k2]

haha. I'm 21.

[JeShUa]

Wow.. so many cars so quick.. Not diggin the rims on the EX.. and the del sol was REAL CLEAN.. Overall.. I like.

[MBK]

nice samurai sword

[Odaisn]

You have a lot of money or something?

I bet you're gonna start modding that accord!!!

[berlinas2k2]

^^ Not really, i just work at a Honda dealership so it's easy for me to get in/out of vehicles without losing much money at all.

[irichard]

^ no wonder lol...i thought you were ballin. well, that is a good benefit for working at the dealership.

[JeShUa]

Your DD pic isnt working.. but since you have a DD I guess you can get FI now :]... lose your trade in value :].. but uhh.. its funny how people that work at shoe stores have so many shoes.. people at car dealerships get lots of cars... and nobody eats more chinese food than me.. but if you do, even if you're chinese, you need help :].

[berlinas2k2]

^^ So i assume you work at a chinese rest?

[lowerlevel]

im sure what ever u get next probably will not have a turbo.. im thinking u should rethink that if true.. lol peace

[JeShUa]

Me or him? He hasn't touched FI yet.. I'm waiting...
