+1 I've noticed when drying the Z, there are often small fibers caught on the tips of the "Z". I could see how it would happen; It's easy to replace anyway. ^^

ouch.

I try my best to be responsible. I dont like to rev my engine infront of other people to get their attention, highway pulls etc etc. I was extrememly humbled by my first car. I plan on doing autoX. But really, I appreciate so much what I have and I want to keep it for a very long time and take care of it to the best of my ability.

growing up my family has never had a whole lot, so this for me(and my family) is a huge thing. If I lose this car, I have nothing else but the bus, and all of the hard work i've comitted into getting this car, and continue to commit, will be completely in vain.

glad it went to someone who appreactes it. Nothing personal kid, but sports cars and kids dont mix, that why old ****s like us drive them. I hope you stay accident free, but i'm just saying the odds are against it

I've learned that through just getting the insurance on this car.

I know the whole kids and sports cars thing. Thats why a few buddys and I are starting our own track team (mostly autoX) to try and show others that not every kid with a sports car is an unresponsible punk.

Congrats on your purchase. The Brickyard is one of the nicest looking colors and was only available during the 2003 production run. It's a pretty rare color.

If I could, I would shake your hand. Your probably one of the very few 18 year olds who actually bought their car, congrats
