Ashe and I are officially no more. We were taking a break earlier, which I knew ment we could have gotten back together, but I didn't want to think about what was more likely to happen. which did.

Hopefully driving the car will make me happy again. well, happier

Go for a spirited drive and make a list of things you always wanted to do and go for it like skydiving or a concert. Do something fun will make it easier than sitting around because than you'll just keep thinking about sad sh*t. Go for a drive.

Do you mean this?

"Most users ever online was 2,541, 12-01-2011 at 01:24 AM."

I was one of those. I put my deposit down at my dealership two days later. They barely knew what the car was other then an early concept poster that was up.

So, for the longest time I've been checking the Southeast regional forum since I live in Kentucky and have been sad that I'm pretty much alone in my area. Then I realized Ohio isn't in that regional forum. I live in northern Kentucky. Found it in Great Lakes regional forum. I might have better luck there.

Also, 700th post.

Lolll, so I was borrowing my friends NA Miata today and I went to put in the key in the door to unlock it and the key snapped in half. Then I remembered that he swapped his doors and they had different locks.


Needless to say, total panic.


I used some picks and fished the key-half out but there was no way to repair it. Thankfully there was a very awesome store here called Do It Best Hardware managed to line up the key halves and cut me a new key. How much did all of that cost, you ask?

$1.40.

No Joke. A Locksmith was gonna charge me $90 and they kept telling me that there was no guarantee and other BS...

Do It Best Hardware is now my go to place for hardware shit. Awesome store, awesome people working there!


Then I did some wrenching. Good day!

My BRZ spoiled me. I was hanging out with a local and when we went to test drive his FR-S (for science) I fumbled with the door handle, the keys, the ignition, and then had to be told to turn the lights on a half mile down the road.

Happy with the way my new LED headlight bulbs look. Very happy.


But after driving home from a meet almost two hours away last night I am disappoint. They put out a ton more light but not at all in the right spots. I can't see very far at all up the sides of the roads (deer land) and there is literally NO light put out above the cutoff making it hard to see highway signs at any distance.

I knew it was likely that these wouldn't perform properly like halogen bulbs but they were such a simple and possibly effective alternative to HID retrofits which are also not ideal.

I look forward to hopefully fitting the special edition FRS headlights.

When I drove your car to check out the transmission I was like omg where do I put the keys or start the car lol then saw the button lol

Its actually the opposite for me, my daily is a SUV with push button start and I find my self reaching for the keys every single time and then just go for the button. Weird going in between 2 different cars often haha.

All my Mallomars, are gone.

O', what am i to do?

Shall i pray to the great gods of Nabisco and hope a box is soon to be found?

Or shall thou be tempted to go to a local CVS and buy a box for the poor old self?

Just watched The Fast and Furious for about the 9th time. I hate the last like 30 minutes. I'm freaking excited for the new Fast and Furious, although I'm mad because I won't be back home when the KC frs/brz group goes to see it

quick question: if the new series is coming out in June, and IMO making stupid changes.
What will the basic model have? Will it be the same as this year model?
And will it come out in June as well?

-Who the fuck wants a light up logo? And WHERE are the fogs? Like come on! You're gonna give a camry fogs but not your sports car...yeah makes perfect sense.
