Dr. Apex

We need to do a rolling pic session like we did a few years ago. I'd like to get some rolling pics of the vert with the top down.

 

Do it!!

 

I love that last rolling shot...it really makes the LED's and orange really stand out.

Thanks, I like all of them naturally.

Well here's another then!

It'd be tough to have IPS do much now....

I hadn't heard about that, I always liked Jeff Y. and they did good work for me at least.

I love the contrast!

 

That's what really made it, he said really bright sunny days are difficult for almost any color car but the grey overcast is perfect for bright colored cars.

Thanks, the overcast sky was perfect for that day to really make the color pop. I haven't paid attention to my sig in a while Scott, guess I need to update it lol.

Buddy of mine does automotive photography on the side so we took a few shots of the Mustang on a nice overcast day.

I thought about you when I ran across one down here in Phoenix right after you bought the 1st one, that is until I saw the odometer at 240k lol, shame as it was fairly beat up but obviously rust free at least.....

I had IPS install some stuff on my 04' GT, they did solid work. Also had Bill Dozzer do some stuff as well, great guy.

I've been quite impressed with my friends Volt. He got the suede-like interior option and it really makes it quite nice inside for a GM product, it's quite comfortable and certainly has all the tech you'd likely want. It's peppy with the electric motor and almost never needing gas on a mostly short commute certainly isn't a bad thing. It is awkward to drive though, completely silent then all of a sudden the engine fires up when juice is needed and it running completely independently of how your driving is damned odd, but it works.

 

Buddy says there's some upgrades via software I believe to give it better output and you can couple the engine when you want too for even stronger acceleration.

LOL, Those are now just X15's. The Family 2 variant is where it's at! Some programming changes and BOOM- big power.

 

New SRC engines suck though lol.

 

Yeah I'm not totally up to date, my company holds onto equipment too long, we're still rocking Pete's with ISM's, I'd take a Cat C15 any day.

 

Still, if it could be made to happen could have serious potential!

WAT?

They're a bit heavy but can be tuned for north of 2,000lbs of torque! :gabe:

You should swap in an ISX15, just because....

I have 3 bulged disks, and l4/l5 disk extrusion that keeps moving and hitting my nerves. When it moves and hits my nerves it almost puts me to the ground. So my dr. does not think the injections will help, so I am guessing I will be heading down this path to do a fusion.

 

Retrolisthesis? I had this on my l4/l5 but PT got me squared away thankfully.

I was at the game tonight. 1st game outside the Shoe, and 1st loss I've been to. It's such a shame to have the season end in this way. Phoenix is like a 2nd home for the Buckeyes, there are so many fans here. The stadium was packed with Scarlet and Grey, at least 75% of the people there tonight were Buckeyes, the problem is the offense didn't show up at all.

 

We left at the end of the 3rd quarter and I've never left a game early....

Finebaum hit the nail on the head, just awesome!!

 

I just got my ticket to the Fiesta Bowl!! Finally seeing my 1st Buckeye game outside the Shoe!!

I dont have anything to offer but amazement that BMW's high end stuff doesnt have remote start standard. Wtf....

 

It's a $16,000 option on top of the $100k price tag most likely....

Places like Waimea, Pipeline, and Makaha are not places to learn to surf.

 

Drive the H3 on O'ahu, it was still being built when I was there last but it's supposed to be one of the most scenic drives around. Waimanalo beach was one of the best and quietest beaches on O'ahu when I was there last, SI has filmed multiple swimsuit issues there.

 

Most other good places on O'ahu have already been mentioned, Pearl, Haleiwa. Laie Point is a good place for cliff jumping(Forgetting Sarah Marshall scene). Lots of hiking to do even on O'ahu.

I liked it, I say bring it back if possible.

They're quick when prepped for auto-x events and are capable cars, if you really like them go get it. There's a strong aftermarket for them.

It's definitely something to wonder about, I have issues with my Sync almost daily and wonder whether or not I'll be able to get it fixed 5 years from now and if it can't be fixed at all down the road. Would you buy a car without a working stereo system and non-functioning and obsolete control system?

Okay, thanks man! There's one I've been eyeing out there. I'll let you know if I decide on it! I appreciate it :thumbup:

 

Anytime. Don't mind helping a fellow car guy out.

 

Keep in mind that car values down here are pretty high because of the climate, what is a $1k beater in Ohio commands $2500 here, but the good thing of it the obvious lack of rust, I still see plenty of 80's Toyota pickups and such running around here all the time, anywhere else they'd have rusted away years ago.

I'm in AZ, if you need a hand with something in the Phoenix area let me know.

Sexy.

Christian also said it too, easier to replace plastic than rust!!

 

Besides, there are ways to prevent/slow down those issues. Dark window tint, i utilize a good windshield shade, and regularly treat my plastics and seals to keep them fresh. A little TLC goes a long way and less expensive than welding in new metal to replace rotted stuff.
