Officially in Shock

cohlineman · 08-31-2006, 01:11 AM

My dealer called me...
They got a cancellation on an order but the car was delivered...

Wrong color, no Monsoon with XM, no polished wheels, the complete oposite of what I ordered.

So I took it!

Black on black(wanted red), chrome wheels(not a chrome guy, but they don't look bad on the black), LSD(<never buy a sports car without these two options>) manual transmission and just the upgraded stereo. Guess I'll just buy an I-pod!

I'll pick it up Friday after it gets the Lo-jack and I'm off!

So who wants a hopped up Subaru WRX???

I wish I was going to be in town tomorrow, I'd head over there and we could do donuts in the saturn parking lot, ya gotta break it in right!!!

But not for long!

Yesterday it was dinner on the warf in Monterey. Today, lunch on Post in the City, by Petaluma tonight I should be past that 500 mile marker and i will let her know what the rev range above 4K feels like.

What a fun car to drive.

No XM= No Problem. I just ripped a 5 hour MP3 of the finest DJ's in Ibiza and we were outta here.

Now for my next problem....

Anyone have someone they know would love one of these speed demons?

USMC, my agents were Marina and Jan. All in all a great experience, of course I say that now because I have a car!

Well whether in Santa Rosa, Healdsburg or the City, you can't miss us....

Black on black , chrome, fat bald guy, dark haired blue eyed female, both occassionally talking with their hands and not speaking in English, liscence plate (in the drawer but not on the car yet) VENVDVC. Veni, Vidi, Vici for you roman empire fans, we came , we saw, we conquered!

Look at us now, 10 years ago three suitcases and our life savings landing in SFO from Torino and now we're tooling around in a SKY!
