Default The New Sinister: IS

After the sale of the Sinister Hatch, I took a drive down to the local Lexus dealer and fell head over heels. I got all the little **** I wanted, the price range I was looking to pay, and most importantly, the APR I wanted.

Out with the old...


In with the new...









So on that note, I`ll prolly disconnect myself from HT for a while, atleast so I`m not on here all damn day long...But I still love Hondas, perhaps a new project car is on the horizon

I don`t see any mods in the near future, perhaps a tint and maybe a drop, but I just want to make sure I don`t void the warranry.
