Default Any R owners in or around Pittsburgh?

I met some kid at the expo last year in BeaveRun...I was checking out his black Type R. At the time I had a 99 GSR and he asked me "Are you looking to upgrade to an R?" And at the time, I was a douche and said "no."

Well, since then, I bought a Type R, lol....so yeah, just wondering if he's a member here or anyone else around Pittsburgh. Since I got my R, I've seen one Type R...a CW one. Looked extremely nice.

Any others out there?

I figured you were from the burgh since you have the Steeler avatar.

I'm moving out of here as soon as I get out of college...I can't stand the weather.

Yeah, I actually got to meet piyomut or however you spell that. His sister or friend, whichever she was, actually bought my 99 GSR. I got to see his PY ITR...very nice car.

I'm one of the "used to be's," been down in DC for the last 2 1/2 yrs. It's great being back in such a high theft area, I miss not worrying about parking the R in the 'burgh.

He has a 98 Turbo ITR.

he he..
your GSR now looks like an R because my friend liked how the Lip and Wing of the R looks. Having a hard time driving it because of the crazy snow with the stock tires.
as for me, I am waiting for another R to come.
NSX is in the garage
somehow, I feel that I am more of an R person than an NSX.
(but if I have a NSX-R that would be a different story)

Who's all going to the ITR expo from around here? I've already got a mini caravan going, consisting of 2 GSR's, a supercharged GSR, an LS, and my R. So yeah, I'm alone, give me another R to go with!

I want to intercept the Chicago caravan whenever it crosses my path but I don't know when they are going yet....

Yea, Jody's car was totaled, but my friend bought it at an auction, i actually have some of the parts on my ride. for a meet in pittsburgh around spring time. We are tying to get a dyno up and running also so people around pittsburgh let me know if you are interested. It will be up in beaver county, hopefully around late spring/summer.
