The Idea of Project Cars…

February 2nd, 2012 · No Comments · Musings, Random

TweetWhat is it that makes the idea of having a new project car so appealing? Am I the only one who’s always thinking about the next project instead of focusing on what I’ve got in front of me? ^Current Project: New suspension and tires for the S2000…. Need $$$ :/ I’m probably having way too [...]

I’m Gonna Drive a Ferrari!!

January 26th, 2012 · No Comments · About Me, Driving, Travel

TweetAnd I’m not joking, either. In March, my husband and I are taking off for nearly two weeks of blissful vacation to Disney World in Orlando. Since we skipped a honeymoon and it’s our fifth anniversary this year, we figured it was about time for a nice big trip like this. In a way, this [...]

It Snowed…!

January 19th, 2012 · No Comments · My Cars, Photos, Random, STi

TweetThis winter has been pretty blah. Last year by now we had had a few feet, resulting in the impromptu purchase of the Legacy that we had. Ever since we bought the STi right before summer, we couldn’t help but look forward to finally driving her in the snow. Well, irony had it that it’s [...]

Doing Research and Tweaking Plans

January 17th, 2012 · No Comments · Cars I want..., Porsche

TweetDespite my doubts about my job situation and my desire to finally get onto a career path, I still want to make my best effort to save up for the Porsche 911 of my dreams. (Well, one of them anyhow…!) Part of this has been doing research on the various years and learning what to [...]

Note on Ride Height

January 10th, 2012 · 2 Comments · My Cars, Rant

TweetThis is a little note to those annoying people who understand nothing about suspension geometry… Dear Stance Idiots, No, I will not be “slamming” my S2000. Ever. She’s much happier having some usable fender gap so that her fenders aren’t interfering with her tires when we’re turning. We had an absolute blast driving a twisty [...]

Hopes for 2012

December 29th, 2011 · 1 Comment · About Me, Cars I want..., Year Review

TweetAlong with reflecting on the past year, I’m somewhat big on planning for the next one. It’s kinda funny in a way, because I never know exactly what could happen. While it would be weird for us to be moved again so soon, it can happen. So I do take my plans with a grain [...]

Farewell to 2011

December 27th, 2011 · No Comments · 240SX, My Cars, Photos, Random, STi, Year Review

TweetNo, it’s not quite the end of 2011 yet… But I’m certainly ready for 2012 to get here. 2011 wasn’t the worst, but it wasn’t my favorite year either. I figured it’d be worth looking back at some of the high points, though. Highlights For one, we brought home our STi. She’s been a dream [...]

More Porsche Love

December 22nd, 2011 · No Comments · Photos, Porsche

TweetYup, this past Saturday it was that time again…. Time to go and say hi to the Porsches at the dealership. With it being winter, most of them aren’t out. Even without the snow, it has been cold and icy and I don’t blame anyone for hiding their Porsches in the garage at this point. [...]

Odds & Ends #1

December 20th, 2011 · No Comments · Odds & Ends, Photos, Random

TweetEdit: Well, I tried to get these photos into the post with the captions I had added… Clearly, I’m still trying to figure out how to get posts to go up and look normal with the iPad. Sorry, I’ll keep trying to get it right! For now, there are captions up, even if the pictures [...]
