it was a fun run while it lasted. 42k mi, 7 years owned, 2 cross country road trips, 1 failed theft attempt, countless track days, late nights, bloody knuckles, swear words, laughs friends and memories.

i'll miss you typie!!!! <3 <3 <3 i feel like i just got rid of my first love.... it was good but i knew we just weren't right for each other anymore... not here in seattle... maybe if i were in toronto but she just didn't have room to stretch her legs here like she needed.

muahmuahmuah








((typie was an 01 CDM and sold in her mostly stock form with dc5r wheels & recaros, + jdm front for 14,5$ if anyone was curious (so hard to see what going rates are these days) to a local buyer.))

<3 <3 </3

penpen signing off.....

 

Must have had some good times and memories, I just got mine and hope I can have a similar time frame and lifestyle with mine.

 

I hate you







JK, Just to let you know Expo 11 is going to happen on the west coast for sure.

 

Thats a cool little story/background. Whats next?

 

You going to track the 993 or stick with two wheels?

 

very nice car....and x2 on whats next?

 

oh man...i remember meeting you oh so many years ago, perhaps 3 or 4 lol. I met you through Brian, a mutual friend. It was either at Kennedy Commons, or at Woodbine/16th area. We talked about tracking together, but never did lol. I had a black DC4 then, have a PY now.

Anyway, sad to see you let heR go after so long, but things change I guess. I can't even picture letting mine go. Cherish the memories!

Hope all is well!

 

hey.. its too bad you had to let her go. but i'm sure you have other toys that's better than itrs now :D

my itr has been dead for last 2 years. i dont have time or money to fix her and get her going again..

i had her since 2001. and i'm getting old as well. lol.. what do i do?? i might have to sell her too

take it easy lori..

 

Hey penpen! Sorry to see you sold the R, but as long as you are still having fun

 

clean car man
time to move on to the next itR!!!

 

I know how you feel. I just sold my 98 after only owning it for 1 year and 8 months. I did put more miles on it than you, but only had one good, long trip with it to Wyoming. That was one of the most memorable trips ever cause I did it with my Dad. He loved driving it. I had to leave my 97 behind for him to take care of for the next few years. Sad, sad days.

 

awwwww.....well, once part of the club, always part of the club

shoulda kept the CDN rears for sentimental purposes, and so when they go up in price in 20 years, you'll have them

 

thought you sold it a while ago!! i think i saw your ad on craigslist, but had no idea it was you.

best wishes!

 

Lori!!!!!!!!

 

OMG!!! a penpen sighting. Sorry you had to sell. Whats this about a 993??

 

Do you have any more pictures of DC5R wheels on your car? I was thinking about getting some but were scared they'd look to big.

 

penpen!!!

pics of said 993

 

Any more pics? x3 on what's next.

 

Sorry/glad to hear that you're moving on to something else. That was an awesome price for such a low mileage R. Good luck and keep in touch!

 

judging by your sig you really like your toy's.
your my dream girl..lol

 

wow that sucks Lori,

i'm actually debating about selling mine as well, i don't get to enjoy it enough. it will be hard, but i guess we'll see what happens and where it will take me.


good luck with everything!

 

Can't believe you sold it, no way could I sell mine but glad you treated it well and hopefully will the next owner.

 

Statistically there's a good chance you'll be back

 

hi all, thanks for the well wishes. it definitely wasn't easy to part ways. :crybaby: man, i miss the h-t crew!!!! so many good people i've met on here

yessss what is next, that is the burning question!!!! few things i'm trying to keep in mind:
- i don't go to the track as much anymore. if i wanted to, maybe i'd hold onto the miata just for that.
- ...so it might come down to having a sweet daily to ride the strip and pick up hos

... few ideas:

- just rock the 911. she's a beaut afterall. else sell her too and look at others...

- of course, lotus elise in arctic white (don't want the exige, too much powah)...
- if i had more ppl around to help, an elise with a DC2R swap would be ideal

- c6 vette... i know, i've made fun of domestics for so long, but dang these are nice
- ^^^ for the above reason i wouldn't consider a gtr... reading i've done indicates the vette would be a better fit for me. oh and i'm not that baller.

- supra TT.. had one in my care for a while and it was a hoot. but.. so big... driving it back to back on the track with the R was tough, i like small momentum cars. (but if i'm not driving a lot on the track these days anyways, maybe it doesn't matter... )

-today's idea: save up for another year and find a rebuilt ferrari 360. muahaha. when i first moved out here i came up with a scheme to own italian by the time i turned 30. of course that meant i wasn't buying a house or going out for 5 years, but whatever! (i cheated and got motorcycles, but it'd still be cool to meet that goal!)

-maybe some sorta bmw...thingy.. white... -_-"


ahhhhh. car ADD. bikes are so much easier..



848 might turn into a hyper motard next. haha.

*fidgets*

 

An Elise with a DC2R swap sounds like a nice compromise. There's a decent chance you'll be back though
