Default My Last Topic :(

It is sad to say that this will most likely be my last topic that I post in the EP3 section of HT. You all are a bunch of awesome people here, and I will take with me all that I have learned from reading your posts.
There comes a time when a boy must put away his toys and get....
SOME BETTER TOYS!!!

That's right... I bought a 350Z even though I love my EP3 dearly, and now the EP3 must go for sale for I cannot afford both . Go to my sale post to see:
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1074045

I am damn near crying now for I am losing my beloved Si trying to be an R. But then I look ahead, and the Z seems very promising. I will continue to watch this topic for the next couple of days, so let me know what you guys think.

In fact I did. A couple of buddies of mine have S2000s. One was modded, and the other was stock. No doubt, the S2 is nice and a great car, but not 'Z' nice in my own opinion.

You got "big daddy!" As I was purchasing my first EP3 this week, I was thinking how much more would the payments be for a Z or G35????

Best of luck!!

A step in the right direction, although the EP isn't anything to be ashamed of .

Actually, I wish I could keep them both. I just took some new pictures, but I left the Digital Camera at my brother's house. These pictures should look even better. Will post asap.

That car is dope, I saw you in the Fashion Fair parking lot about six months ago, I think. Maybe it wasn't you. The car looks familiar, especially with the Volks.

Maybe... I haven't gone to the mall in a long *** time, and that would be about 6 months ago.

If you're wondering why I didnt stay with my EP3, the reason is simple: the Z has all the things that I was planning on getting for my EP:
aluminum shift bushings, tighter suspension, bigger tires on 17" rims, more power.
And it's rear wheel drive. I can't say it enough when I drive the car, "Awesome"

That's my brother's house. He has an AE86, getting a Panda paint job. My house is not nearly as nice. Thanks for looking!

This Saturday will be the last day I have my EP. After that, she will be someone else's baby. A little sad, but nothing that getting sideways in a corner can't fix. Saying goodbye to FF, and re-welcoming FR.
