Runs good. $750 cash, and doesn't make your AH BBS signature get over 3 lines.

Them rich people are gonna get it sooner or later.

They'll be the first up against the wall when the revolution comes.

Hm, but they already spend their time up against the wall, letting other capitalists have their ways....

It'll be a different wall alltogether, methinks.

Secret to success in Ripsnorts eyes:

~Start adult life with $100 and suitcase full of clothes, move 1700 miles away from any relative.

~Begin working your butt off, even though subjected to lay-offs, re-schooling, going back to work, taking every community college class related to work, and outside of your current scope of work possible.

~Save your money while doing the above, and invest it wisely.

~Finally buy a car you've always wanted after 24 years of working your tail off.

~Eventually get slammed by those who think you are rich for all your hard blue-collar work.
  :rolleyes:

I've always wanted a nice car, drove beaters most of my life, yes after driving a bimmer, I did decide that my new car (not wifes) would be a bimmer.  ;)

Dual purpose, wife has a business where she entertains a bunch of hens every other week, she needed an area to set up their crafts tables, so the garage was an obvious choice. That, and it kept my mind off waiting for my new car to ship.  ;) Yes, from you I like the toejam, from Creamo...well lets just say I can't wait to meet Mr.Creamo at the con, doubt he'll ever go though.  :D

SOB... whot in hell is dat in the center of the grille?

Looks like the 'package' on a gay models boston ball strangler bathing suit.

Ahhh... issit a wench? I applaud if it is.... always wanted to get the squeak to ride out there.

Or issit a plow? Again; I applaud... always wanted a hundai poker package on my grille.

Then again... mebbe Rip should worry... if that's a Secret Service ride, he'll never make the toll booth.

WTF is a bimmer?!?!  Shouldnt it be a Beemer or maybe even Beamer?  

Geez Creamo...you better not ever come to the con.  HTC will have to rent a bigger space just for the line of people that have threatened to beat your ass.   :D

bimmer is the actual way to spell the nickname 'beamer'.

i dunno if you pronounce it that way but a friend used to have a bmw and was real anal about spelling it right.

-Never take anything Creamo says seriously. Or near. In fact, forget Creamo as a "thinking" "Sensible" entity; but think of "it" as an UBB-bot-Dork which only exists in cyberspace.

That's the effect, not the cause...BMW's are a chick magnet, the younger, the more agressive.  Fortunatly, my bald head wards them away in a hurry!


Vrrrrooom!

1)  Just *try* and catch me.

2)  The cool factor is off the scale.

3)  What would you prefer, a girl sat on the seat next to ya with a stickshift in the way or sat behind ya with her arms wrapped round ya?

4)  If it rains.....great excuse to go back to your place.


:P

Swoop,

You're right, they don't get it do they?  Here's what I have in the garage:

  (http://home.iprimus.com.au/melandgreg/CBR900RR-s.jpg)  

140 horsepower and 180kg dry weight (less with sports exhaust) means that no car can even come close.    :)

Mine's a 1999 model (as pictured).  Studio pic because I don't have a digi cam or scanner.  Mine is the same colour scheme as the one above but it has gold painted wheels and a Yoshi RS-3 stainless steel exhaust kit.

I love being an adult, I can now buy toys that are much shinier and bigger than when I was a kid.  :D

P.S. <Looking at big screen on R6> Do you tour on that?

That aint a big screen, it's standard.  Camera angle makes it look higher than it is, if it was any lower I'd have to lie on the tank.
