Hi to all! I've been a member for a while. I read the forum daily but I've just decided to post. I'm not as cool and hip as you young uns so I don't have much to contribute :D .
I have an 06 Solara SE that I purchased in May 05. It doesn't even compare to you guys cars, but I've never owned a car that I've enjoyed as much as this one.
I have Epilepsy so I don't get to drive that much. The Solara only has 14900 miles on it.
Not many mods on her, just grills, tint and ugly rims (kinda gangsta to make me feel younger) :wink:. My wife won't drive it because she liked it better plain. Oh well, I don't drive her SUV because it devours gas :lol: !
I've talked to Mike T on the phone a couple of times, (I don't know if he remembers me) but I'd love to hear from the rest of you!
-Take care!

Haha, I like what you wrote. I just got this mental image of you and your wife arguing at home:

:boss: : "You restore that car to the way it was, our neighbors keep asking me who's the young kid living with us!"

8) : "Well.....a young kid living here would still be cheaper than the gas it takes to fill up YOUR S.U.V.!!!"

But don't fret, if you get the Lambo doors like Mike T she won't have any qualms about driving it.

Actually, when I added the few mods to the car my neighbors thought that our oldest daughter had moved back home, (she's an M.D. who lives in Mishawaka, IN).
After being married 29+ years, my wife and I don't argue anymore. She just gives me "the look". We've been married since we were 18 years old, so I know "the look" very well.
