New So Cal guy.

Post by Speedsniper2005 »

Hey, my name is Josh. I live in Southern California. I currently drive a 1996 Suzuki Sidekick Sport JLX 4x4. I am planning on getting a Civic Sedan (either regular or an Si depends). The only cars I've ever owned have been stick. Can't stand auto... You would think for being from So Cal I would but... not the case...

Interestingly enough I also live in So Cal and about 1/3 of the cars in the (fairly large) parking lot at work are all manual. I've been kind of surprised actually at the number of manuals there are around since I started making a habit of peeking in windows as I pass by. I did see a slushie RX8 in the parking lot today though. Luckily I didn't see the owner too as I would have been tempted to kick him in the dangly bits.

Oh and welcome :D

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh PAOLO! C'mere...

+1 for kicking an owner of a slushie RX-8 in his dangly bits. In fact, make sure they need to be surgically re-lowered.

Yea, I'd kick said RX-8 guy in the face hopefully knocking his brain back into alignment. I will hopefully get an Si if possible...

Welcome! It’s always nice more Californians, particularly So Cal locals (to out of staters note: it’s So Cal, never Cali) on the board. Maybe eventually we’ll give all these east coast boys a run for their money. :wink:

But welcome!
