New from JERSEY

Post by filphil »

Hey all,

Just drove home with a metropolitan gray Mazdaspeed 3 today. I figured I'd introduce myself before I post on the other sub-forums. So... hi!

Hahaha, glad to have a warm welcome. First off, I'm off of exit 14 on the turnpike. NJsi said something about a rival but I don't race at all ><. When I see people overtaking me on one lane roads(O.o) I just say to myself that my car will DEFINATLY blow that car away. This morning some grandmother in a corolla tried to do that. To be honest, the car is probably crying because I don't push her hard enough =D. It's been a fabulous drive so far and the new carl and shine is oh so nice.

No pictures yet, but it's rained twice since I got her. I'm trying to borrow my friend's girlfriend's camera. Very nice camera which is way too expensive for my taste to take a picture of the car. In pictures the car and the color didn't suit my tastes. In person, thank god, the car looks MUCH nicer.

Exit 14 is Bayonne, Jersey City, and the Holland Tunnnel exits. Not too far away from newark.
