I love my SWP, but I saw a WRB in person the other night and keep thinking about it.

The WRB IS beautiful but I think less refined... But one thing to note is the dealer said the WRB is a cop magnet (stands out and makes it look like an exotic). Funny my wife and I went to the dealership with her wanting WRB and me wanting galaxy blue but we ordered a SWP

Sounds like some wrenching at DIY texas is in order... if anyone needs help with anything, I'm always open on week days after 5.

How long have you had your car? I've had mine only a month so no crickets yet. Hopefully they are close to a permanent fix.

Howdy fellow ATX86ers, @Extreme86 has set the date for the Three Twisted Sisters run for Jan 25th! Since I won't be here to attend the meet on the 18th, I fully expect y'all to make it out to this meet/cruise to show some ATX pride.

Here is a link to the run thread, the first page has all the pertinent info!

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...=25908&page=47

I hope to see all you guys and girls there!

For those interested, I'll lead an Austin group from the old Albertsons parking lot at Oak Hill Y to the Apple Store meeting site in Medina. It's about a 2-hour drive from that point, so we'll meet @ 6:45 and pull out promptly @ 7:00.

I'll provide a "run sheet" in case you get lost and will have an FRS radio. Please bring yours if you have one.

The sisters are well worth the effort. Hope to see you there!

Hey it looks like (unless the weather is crap) I will be going to the Cars and Coffee at Oasis on Sunday. Funny I have driven right by it without knowing that is where the cars and coffee is located. How can we be sure to park our 86s together etc? What time should I get there? Sorry I have never been so I don't know how this event works.

The 18th and 25th I am not sure about yet. One of those 2 weekends I will be gone but I don't know which one yet. LOL I won't be over my 1000mi break-in by the 25th so I won't be able to keep up

Sucks man :[ I have the crickets too. I just went by toyota and they are ordering a new fuel pump for me. I am not quite sure that this will fix the problem, as it seems the community is pretty aware of what is causing it, but they insist since it is a recall anyways.

We will see.

The last time I went they did it to where the slower drivers were in the rear. Don't let that stop ya.

Yeah generally we do fast up front and slow in the back. We aren't all speed demons.
