Nice. I bet that's a huge step up from what she's driving now.

Man, I can't wait to start driving the Z again. It'll feel like driving a new car.

Awesome! Congrats

My folks just traded in a Sonata for an Azera...really nice car. Hyundai had some real nice cars at the auto show....we were smitten with the Veloster. We actually went over to the dealer in West St. Paul and test drove one right after the show...they didn't have a turbo though and the regular 4 cyl had no get up and go. Really cool car with that 3rd cheater door to the back seat.

We just couldn't decide on a car, then we saw the $299/mo 24 month lease on the G...so we went for it. Now we can take our time to decide The G is pretty nice though, the VQ37 and all wheel drive really powers the car nicely! They're trying to get rid of all the g's to make room for the Q50.

That's not the price I'm paying. Also the interior on the website says cloth but it's leather as you can tell by looking at the pics
Thats a great color on that car

Is everybody frozen yet?

Going to a funeral tomorrow for someone that kind of worked with us at ICE. He was only 42. Cancer sucks.

Amen to that.

So the funeral was good but very sad. Cop funerals are damn tear jerkers. I felt so bad for the widow. She's Tara's age, so I kept imagining what it would be like to lose someone at that age. Makes you really think about things.
