I have somehow re motivated myself to get stuff done with my car. Having monthly car payments doesn't sound like fun, and getting looks everytime I go out for a drive will never get old, so I'm keeping her.

Here are some bad pictures I took playing with the fisheye that I never use.



I screwed up the alignment of that sticker.



Blurry.



I liked the concept of that picture but it came out terrible. Oh well.

SO I need to fix my bumper so it doesn't chew up my tire and I can actually have more than one person in my car... I need to fix my steering wheel... Cut the bumpstops... Finish my interior... I need rear pads and rotors and I need to take care of my airbag light before I get my car inspected, which I need to do ASAP since it ran out two days ago.

And then I'll be content. I'm going to find a place to get my muffler installed too FINALLY.

Yay.

Sick stickers. You and Aledelic have some of the best looking cars and stickers, well Atleast his B5 sedan that is but cant wait for his avant to be rockin soon. By the way did you do that interior roof job yourself? Cause it looks real clean so nice job. Car looks great so keep up the work!

I am crazy inspired by you and this thread. I just spent an hour and 15 minutes reading this whole timeline. I haven't ever even been sucked into a book like that. Crazy. You need to keep this car! It's beautiful!!!

Thanks guys.

Went to the firehouse in Boston with my buddy and took a quick pic of the B5 and his Dad's Vette



My other friend took his camera back . No more DSLR for now, which is a shame because I added some fuzzy dice to my tow hook .

Been thinking about my stance... I need to get my fenders rolled, then I was thinking 15mm spacers up front, after I trim the bumpstops so it goes lower. Or... move the 20's up front and get 25 for the rear?! Probably not. Just throwing around ideas.

I saw you posting about selling your car for a while.

I just want to say that you made a good decision; these cars should be treated as classics in my opinion. New cars just don't have the rarity, and their luster fades after having them for a year or so. In 5 years there will be more B8s and even fewer B5s. Everyone wants a new car, but I feel like the biggest part of wanting one is not having it.

...and the car payment thing helps too.

Magnaflow 14816.

I agree, the biggest part of wanting one is not having one. Well put.
