Great to see everyone's doing well!!!! Still driving blue betty...she's getting close to be putting out to pasture . She hasn't been doing so well..lots of rust, now the stupid trunk hinge decided to snap in half while down at the home show on Saturday. Now I can't get the trunk open since I got it shut.
Anyone got a spare hinge?

Not sure what I'll get next but first of all a new(er) home comes before a flashy new vehicle. Got to save, save, save with the way the market keeps going up $$$!!!

Holy crap!!! I just checked on my profile....I've been on "Driver" for 8,797 days!!!

Yikes, that's 211128 hours. Good to here from you Bill.

Saving for a new home is a great goal, too bad TO is so expensive.A buddy told me that renting in To is the way to go in this market.

I've thought of moving back to be closer to friends and family, but trading our 4 br. for a 2br condo in T0 just doesn't motivate us.

Sorry to hear about betty. Don't see many like her around these days.

Thanks Ian, I love how the colour turned out, and I was very happy with the shops work.

Hey guys, I randomly come by, seemed to die down a while ago, nice to see familiar guys still around, nice fx50 wayne!
Still got the G, had to raise it back up to stock height (ewwww). Got sick of the blown struts and bounciness, and just doesn't work well for my wife driving it or my first baby boy, just under 2 years old now. He's been keeping me busy for sure.

Hoping to pass the G to the wife soon, got my eyes on the new sti, or a used G37 coupe. Test drive pending to see if the sti is as good as everyone says it is. I need to get a stick shift back, cant wait for that.

Aside from that, still helping keep planes in the air for a living, no retirement soon, congrats to some of you guys who made it, cant wait to get there.

Well I'm not retiring anytime soon and I fall in the middle age category but I am o e of the OP's.

I think I'm keeping g the G for a couple more years just not ready to sell unless an unpassable offer comes up. I think a new set of wheels is planned for this year and some vinyl roof wrap. Need to bring g some excitement back.

I will make it a point in going for sure this year. I know I don't have any Dj gigs that month yet so if all goes well I'm in.

lol Roy. Every time I start up the G and hear the exhaust, I get excited. Still puts a smile on my face. New wheels and a wrap will certainly help. I was looking for a set of 19" rays to replace the set I lost in the accident, but decided my stock 18" were good enough last summer when I put new rubber on. Just decided not to invest the extra $. Now I've got great rubber and would be an idiot to look for new rims and incur the added expenses. Still looks good, but I've lost the edge to do mods. Just enjoying the drive.
Let me know when you get her done up and maybe we can do a little meet/hookup in Cambridge, at the Rona or something to chill and grab a coffee.
