Hey guys,

I'm going mountain hiking with my wife on Sat. Anyway.. I was involved in a minor accident with a city bus... It was a very minor accident, but I might be repainting the entire car again... Thanks to insurance company!!

So now, I'm all stressed out b/c I don't know what color to go this time...
I'm thinking matte/satin gold, white or blue.... Not sure yet.... Any inputs??

hmmm....... i dont know about satin gold. i've seen someone with it and it just looks kinda too plain to me. how about, flat red? haha, never seen that one before.... the way you have it right now looks awesome but i feel you on changing the color. it's like America... we need CHANGE.

Jay, sorry to hear about the accident but glad you're alright. Cars can be fixed. I'm not too fond of the satin red..but maybe its because its on an old school Benz..the satin orange looks and surprisingly the yellow as well. Hmm...any possibilities for photoshop? *cough Andrew*

Also I was just watching this vid and is that Denny's turbod G @ 3:54-ish?...the closer one looks silver-ish and you can hear the turbo spool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RyilPWvGlvk

Yeah thats the shop I mentioned...well it's seemed more like a paint shop. Weird though because they have, on their banner, logos for Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche, Audi, Benz, and on the store windows they have pictures of some of those cars as well as yours.
Do you know when/where that picture was taken and who it was taken by?

Sucks to hear about your car man. it sounds like your coming out on top though.

i finally made it out to yongsan this weekend. pretty nice areas around there. i cant remember all the names but im pretty sure i saw almost everything seoul had to offer. palaces, shopping, computers, bars, clubs.... we had a lot of fun but i still feel like im in the ghetto everywhere i go... lol

looks like i will be leaving humphreys and pcs'ing to area 1 soon. they needed instructors at WLC and i volunteered. wish me luck.....

Go check out my picture folder in this forum. I displayed my car at the Seoul Auto Salon last year.

mpact, seems like you went to the Itaewon.. You haven't seen nothing yet! Next time go explore around Kang-Nam area(South of the Han river).

Unless they promise to put barriers around my car, I'm not planning on it. Last year, I got several scratches...

I decided to just stay with my lambo orange... I checked out other colors over the weekend, but I just couldn't find better color than what I have right now.

Andrew- whens your next day off? Dudes @ Glux want to go on Tuesday or Wednesday but I've yet to be informed and honestly I don't want to go with them really.
Jay- besides the scratches on your car, what'd you think of the show? Are you still interested in attending?
