Just saying HI.

Thought I would introduce myself.

I'm Greg and I'm a performance addict.

Well maybe.

What really happened is the kids got big enough to not have too haul around tons of crap when we go out with them, so we sold off the 02 Isuzu Rodeo S we had at the begining of the year for an 06 Honda Accord LX-SE in Nighthawk Black Pearl, which has been getting suspesion and audio upgrades since then. Finally last night we sold off the wife's 03 Mazda Protege5 and are going to order an 06 Cooper S in Pepper White. Options are as follows;

Premium Package
Body Color Roof/Mirrors
DSC
Fogs
LSD
Silver Interior

I do love being able to order just what we want without having to get other stuff we don't need. I'll do various upgrades over time but this is a good base to start with.

We both are glad to have a small car again that can handle, before mariage and kids I had a 94 Mazda MX-6 LS modified to within an inch of road legality, and in some respects just past it, and she had a 97 Acura Integra GSR, bone stock. The station wagon and the SUV just weren't cutting it, not that I didn't try to get them to, but they are what they are.

I'm hoping to have fun on here and learn a few new things about these cars.

Thanks guys, I feel all warm and fuzzy now.

Now my only problems left are while I wait for the car to come in I'm driving a 91 Civic CX hatchback with no A/C in 90 degree temps and then I have to pry the car keys away from my wife when it does come in since technically this is her car.
