Arrow Newbie Here... (with pics)

Hey yall. Just wanted to make a quick post to introduce myself... My name is Kristen and I'm the proud owner of a 2004 Z named Goose (think Top Gun). I'm obviously new to this board, but I've been a member of IS300.net for two and a half years. Hope to have a long stay here as well, although I'm sure a lame start like this will get me flamed for a time to come

What else can I bore you with? I'm orginially from Baltimore but now live in Tampa, FL, although I've had stops in many other places (NC, PA, HI, AK, etc, etc). I will have owned my Z for a year this upcoming January. Previously I have owned 5th and 6th gen Celicas, an '01 Chevy Blazer Xtreme, two '02 IS300's, and right now I've got the Z and an '03 RX300.

I havent modded my Z at all (first car I've never modded) but I plan on it someday, of course. I will be the first to admit I have alot left to learn about this ride, and I'm now really starting to do my homework. For now though he's just my fun little baby to putz around in.

So without further ado here's Goose:

The week I brought him home:


A current picture. Only difference is tints and new rubber:

Welcome Kristen. Nice to have you here. Tampa is a great place. I grew up in Lakeland my-self. I now live in the Panhandle.

Welcome to the site. Much to learn here. Be careful, you could catch the mod bug. It's very addictive.
