Just added the GO FASTER STRIPES Today with my Dad. VROOM VROOM!

My plan is to get a boot pop kit so it opens automatically with the key, then tint the windows as legally black as they can be. Then Im gonna upgrade the lights to LED. Underglow maybe.

red honda badge for meme points that's epic

i'd get an s2k but the cost of them here alongside insurance makes them unattainable

case in point, only decent one that isn't an insurance bodge-job or stupidly high miles

how's your motorbike going
good, finance runs out in a year but i'm kinda stumped on what to do next

i'm gonna just pay the finance off so i fully own my bike for a bit longer and get a car first (because driving is necessary, riding is a weekend hobby) and then save some more and get a bike after because end of the day i might end up riding these new yamahas and not like them and want to go for a different brand of bike

still uhming and erring about what car to get next too, i've had a look at some mitsubishi evos again because i have always liked them

sensible choice is an audi tt, fun stupid 21 year old choice is a jap shitbox

really tempted to just say fuck it and pull the trigger on one of these, i really love them but my parents would hate me for it

would do it myself down the line but they're asking stupid prices on the current market

26,000? fuck no I'm keeping my kidneys
see that's my gripe too, audi tt is around the same price as these evo 4s i'm looking at (9k-10k) but i've got to factor in the idea that it's an old car and it's reliability may not be the best

yet on the other hand with german cars if something does go wrong they charge you an arm and a leg for the repair costs, my grandad has owned 4 audi A3s because each time one has something wrong he just sells it and gets a new one to "save money"

there is an evo specialist literally the town over from me so that's always handy and always important. i remember speaking to a pilot on the way back from greece whilst in the flight deck, and he's got tons of old america muscle stuff. he said as long as you know the basics to get you out of a pinch and have a reliable specialist garage near you then there's nothing to worry about and it'll be as reliable is not more than a modern car
